hiro: the hiro gui framework is not 'portable'

Open 7zxkv opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Hi,

there remains the following directory / file which was recreated each time the game is launched, which means that ares is not yet fully portable.

C:\Users\xxxxx\AppData\Local\hiro

best regards

Good spot; the emulator itself is portable now but this is from the GUI framework, hiro

the GUI framework technically creates the hiro directory, but it is really determining appdata path (and path for all 3 OS's) from within nall, specifically by calling userSettings() and userData() found in nall/path.hpp. So any underlying parts of code that rely on these functions is going to cause portability issues.

hiro is portable now along with the rest of ares. This issue can be closed.
