Dynamic Base Path Handling #14

Closed phy1um closed 2 years ago

phy1um commented 2 years ago

The current strategy for handling argv is simplistic. I have observed a few different behaviors for argv depending on how the ELF is launched:

  1. PCSX2 launching the ELF passes the absolute path from the filesystem as argv[0] eg. host:/home/tom/ps2-game/test.elf
  2. ps2link over the network passes nothing to argv regardless of commandline arguments
  3. uLaunchElf passes the path in to argv[0] eg mass:/...

This is also complicated by ISO loading, where paths are totally different again eg mkisofs does not seem to like nested folders, and ISO 9660 has strict filename lengths!
