v2.5 ~ user request edition ~

It's been a while!
Version 2.5 inlcudes a couple features I worked on based on user requests, as well as stability improvments.

Special thanks to all users who submitted requests and feedback :)

Fixes

<patch_db>

Automatic patch generation has been broken for some players depending on whether a bootstrap.xml file was present in prop folder and other unknown conditions. The patch generation system has been slightly reworked and should be more stable/reliable now.

New additions

<judgement_display_offset>

You can make the game display the judgement text higher or lower according to your personal preference.

Thanks to c353 for the suggestion

<hide_lift>

Lift option can automatically hide the area below the judgement bar.

Note: this can work even with hidden_is_offset/show_offset patches. However if you DON'T use hidden_is_offset, then manually setting a hidden+ value will take priority.

Thanks to yumemi for the suggestion

<datecode_prop_parsing>

(when using force_datecode "auto") popnhax can parse bootstrap.xml/ea3-ident.xml/ea3-config.xml looking for the most recent datecode in order to use it.

This should simplify the data update process for people not using multiboot setups.

Thanks to azui for the suggestion

See you next time for more goodness :)
