This commit mainly elaborates on some messages a little more. Also fixes some typos that slipped through the last commit.
A large change in text can be seen in EXI_DeviceMemoryCard.cpp. I added more info as to why a write to a memory card may fail. (This actually was a reason I was unable to write to a memcard recently).
Elaborations can be seen in WGL.cpp
I did change some comments in some files that I was correcting logging messages in, however this is only if I spot a typo or if an abbreviation is lower-cased. Even in that case, the amount of changes done to comments is very minimal.

Some cleanup throughout related code. (try to make logic in ISOFile understandable by a human)
Encode strings in UTF-8 rather than somehow trying to determine the encoding in the GUI code.
Non-windows OSes temporarily broken.
The real file was never kept open for longer than a single operation so there was no point in dealing with it in DoState.
Saving the real path in the savestate was also probably a bad idea. Savestates should be a bit more portable now.
* OpenAL:
Changed SoundTouch to use float samples, allowing SSE to be used. Made the DPL2 decoder disabled by default. Re-added the audio hack used by the Accurate VBeam emulation option.
Added a latency setting to the audio settings. Removed the Sample Rate setting. It is now hardcoded to 48000hz (accurate audio timing).
Skipped timestretching if the emulator is running below 10% speed to prevent buffer overflows.
Removed the synchronisation between the CPU thread and the audio thread. Added code to detect and resume from buffer underruns. Disabled the ability to change the DPL2 option after the game has started. Fixed a memory leak that occurred in the DPL2 decoder. Fixed the OSX build.
Build fix
Added a Dolby Pro Logic II (DPL2) decoder in the OpenAL backend. DPL2 audio is decoded to 5.1. Code adapted from ffdshow. Added an option in the DSP settings to disable the DPL2 decoder in case Dolphin incorrectly detects a 5.1 audio system. Updated the OpenAL files to OpenAL Soft 1.15.1 in the Windows build.
Removed the system timing hack which was activated when the Accurate VBeam option was enabled.
Fixed the include directories in Audio Common for the Windows 32bit build.
Fixed the include directories in Audio Common for the Windows build.
Messed up the static include line
Fix include paths and compiling in Linux. Externals soundtouch is 1.7.1, while Ubuntu 12.10 is 1.6.x. Externals soundtouch is compiled with integer samples, while ubuntu is compiled with float samples. Float samples is probably the more common route. If you're going to use soundtouch, you should probably use SAMPLETYPE instead of explicitly choosing short. This probably breaks the windows build since its includes aren't setup.
OSX: typedef signed char BOOL
OSX build fix
Build fix
Added audio time stretching by using the SoundTouch library.
Implemented correct audio timing.
OpenAL for Windows initial commit
Also changed the size parameter from DoVoid to size_t. As far as I know, that should never be negative.
Also changed the the count parameter of DoArray to size_t, this also should never be negative.
Got rid of some typecasts.
Depth calculations are always done in the pixel shader now.
Due to the unpredictability of our zcomploc hacks this commit probably changes the behavior of some games which use zcomploc.
- In icon retrieving I removed the "format check" as it shouldn't really matter to have mixed icon formats. Also removed the "Time splitters hack" as there's no reason for it since we are only checking the last 3 bits and I'm pretty sure having bits 1 and 2 set is the same as having them unset.
- Icon retrieving uses AnimSpeed as stop signal (every icon must have an speed set, the first speed that is 0 means there are no more icons)
- Also, in icon retrieving I added support for "blank frames"(Luigi's Mansion and Pikmin that I know of). With this the base for icon animation is complete.
- Fixed PSOIII savegame patch which was wrong before.
Signed-off-by: LPFaint99 <lpfaint99@gmail.com>
Reason:
- It's wrong, zcomploc can't be emulated perfectly in HW backends without severely impacting performance.
- It provides virtually no advantages over the previous hack while introducing lots of code.
- There is a better alternative: If people insist on having some sort of valid zcomploc emulation, I suggest rendering each primitive separately while using a _clean_ dual-pass approach to emulate zcomploc.
This reverts commit 0efd4e5c29.
This reverts commit b4ec836aca.
This reverts commit bb4c9e2205.
This reverts commit 146b02615c.
the intent is to replace the haphazard scheduling and finger-crossing associated with saving/loading with the correct and minimal necessary wait for each thread to reach a known safe location before commencing the savestate operation, and for any already-paused components to not need to be resumed to do so.
* misc-speedups:
fixed and reenabled and slightly optimized the JIT version of fcmpo/fcmpu.
slightly more precise speed percent display (this is really minor)
a small thread synchronization speedup for dual core mode. it's most noticeable in games where the CPU is running behind compared to the GPU.

The Fifo.cpp changes from rdaefb3b550e2 was not merged as there was no performance benefit.
please test for regressions, speed and for other issues fixed, as a example, the black color in water splash in super mario galaxy are fixed with this rev.
please as soon as yo find a bug let me know.
a little code cleaning to avoid duplicated execution of AlphaPreTest and a little correction to some comments from the previous commits.
this change must behave exactly like last revision, if something is broken please let me know
to marcosvitali.
Added an external exception check when the CPU writes to the FIFO. This allows
the CPU time to service FIFO overflows. Fixes random hangs caused by FIFO
overflows and desyncs like in "The Last Story" and "Battalion Wars 2". Thanks
to marcosvitali for the research.
Added some code to unlink invalidated blocks so that the recompiled block can be
linked (speed-up).
This release still fixed the hangs produced by fifo overflow without sacrifice
performance. For example you can test Tutorial moves at the beginning of The last history now
is fluid 30/60.
Fixed possibles random hangs in DC mode.
Fixed hangs in DC mode in (Simpsons, Monkey Island, Pokemon XD, etc)
Implemented accurate management of Pixel Engine Interrupts. Now the GPU loop
is stopped when a PE Interrupt needs to be managed and resumed when Pixel Engine
finish.
Fixed Metroid Prime 3 and 2 desync. And other games with desync because of
FIFO Reset. That happens because FIFO_RW_DISTANCE_HI must be written first, for checking
fifo.CPReadWriteDistance == 0, so some fifo resets was not managed in the right
way.
Fixed Super Monkey Ball in some cases when the game write the
WriteReadDistance need to be safe like the SafeCPRead.
Improved the CheckException for the GatherPipe writes in JIT, now only the
External Exceptions are processed.
Fixed definitely Pokemon XD in dual core mode. This game is doing something
not allowed. It attach to CPU the same fifo attached to the GPU in multibuffer
mode. I added a check to prevent overwrite the GPU FIFO with the CPU FIFO. If
the game do that on breakpoint the solution can fail.
Fixed ReadWriteDistance calc when CPRead > CPWrite.
Added Token and Finish cause to GP Jit checking.
Additional cleanup in CommandProcessor.
Fixes issue 5209
Fixes issue 5055
Fixes issue 4889
Fixes issue 4061
Fixes issue 4010
Fixes issue 3902
For example you can test Tutorial moves at the beginning of The last history now is fluid 30/60.
Shuffle2: I've delete the hacky line, I think is not necessary anymore. Additional some clean in CommandProcessor.
Please test The Last Story and others games affected in the previous commits and give me a feedback.
