Status Update - March 2022
🕑 Added 2022-04-01 10:37:38 +0000 UTCHello! This month, just like February, had a few mod releases.
Main releases:
Gran Turismo 2 Combined Disc
A minor update to the Combined Disc has been released. This update improves the setup flow by adding graphical dialogs to select discs and fixes an issue exclusive to the US version of Gran Turismo 2 Plus beta 6.1. If you use that mod with the Combined Disc, re-combine your discs. Old saves remain compatible:

Gran Turismo 4 Loose Chase Camera
A mod for Gran Turismo 4, changing the chase camera to be like in Gran Turismo 3. This makes the camera less "stiff" so it sways more to the sides in corners.

Dreamcast Restoration 2.0 for Crazy Taxi
A minor update for a Crazy Taxi mod released last year, fixing Z-fighting on newly re-added logos and re-enabling previously cut voices.

Other work:
OpenRCT2
- Fix an assertion error in InitialiseListItems - a minor issue triggering an assertion upon certain circumstances when using Debug builds. From what I know it was harmless in Release builds, but this change makes the code correct.
- Favour WinNT preprocessor version checks over MinGW - a minor refactor bringing more feature parity between MSVC and MinGW builds on Windows. Again not relevant for the end users, but it cleans up the code.
- Refactor functions using path_get_* functions to Path:: functions - two separate pull requests with code refactors.
RPCS3
- WolfSSL: Use a custom UTF-8 aware _stat on Windows - a follow-up to another pull request I submitted a few months ago. The code affected by it is currently unused, so it is only future proofing the code for more Unicode path correctness.
DuckStation
- Fix a Y2038 bug in UnixTimeToFileTime - another Year 2038 pull request, a part of my "project" from February.
