So to compensate lets bring back some speed to the emulation.
change a little the way the vertex are send to the gpu,
This first implementation changes dx9 a lot and dx11 a little to increase the parallelism between the cpu and gpu.
ogl: is my next step in ogl is a little more trickier so i have to take a little more time.
the original concept is Marcos idea, with my little touch to make it even more faster.
what to look for: SPEEEEEDDD :).
please test it a lot and let me know if you see any problem.
in dx9 the code is prepared to fall back to the previous implementation if your card does not support the amount of buffers needed.
So if you did not experience any speed gains you know where is the problem :).
for the ones with more experience and compression of the code please test changing the amount and size of the buffers to tune this for your specific machine.
The current values are the sweet spot for my machine.
All must Thanks Marcos, I hate him for giving good ideas when I'm full of work.
PS and VS making. Untested and won't work for now.
Add in program shader cache files.
Readd NativeVertexFormat stuffs.
Add in PS and VS cache things.
SetShaders in places.
Fixed EFB cache index computations in OpenGL renderer.
The previous computation was very likely to go out of array bounds,
which could result in crashes on EFB access.
Also, the cache size was rounded down instead of up. This is a problem
since EFB_HEIGHT (528) is not a multiple of EFB_CACHE_RECT_SIZE (64).
Very useful to compare performance between two builds, check the impact of
a configuration option, etc. FPS log is stored in User/Logs/fps.txt and is
reset each time you launch a game. Only enabled if you check the "Log FPS
to file" option in your graphics settings.
Could be improved a bit: currently logs only every 1s (so you can't really
see small variations), maybe output more infos to the fps.txt like
average/stddev (but Excel/Libreoffice/Google Docs can compute that easily
too).
Super Mario Sunshine is using a cool trick: To determine how much goop has been cleaned in ep. 6 of Sirena Beach, it counts the number of pixels that are input to the blending stage. For that it's using the PE performance registers ;)
Fixes issue 1498.
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.
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.
- don't load shader cache from disk in d3d9/11 if shader debugging is enabled (we won't have any info about the source shader code otherwise, etc)
- dump shader source codes on safe UIDs mismatch
Thanks to LordMark and [SS] for reporting those to me ;)
Renamed OnFrame.cpp/h to a more accurate Movie.cpp/h. Made some small changes that may improve movie synchronization.

It now works in the debug builds, but not in release builds for some reason. I'm not used to big projects like this so it's probably something obvious that I'm missing. Exclusive full screen mode seems to need the fullscreen resolution for the backbuffer when the DX device is created, so I used adapters[adapter].resolutions[f].xres and yres to get that, but in release builds, that gives me the windowed resolution (in debug it give me the fullscreen res, like I believe it's supposed to), which it reallly doesn't like.
It's not a difficult fix probably, but I've been staring at my monitor in confusion for too long now and need to get to bed. If anyone wants to test, you can still enable the 3D Vision option, it just wouldn't be 3D (obviously).

video backends.
This would be considerably easier if there was a way for me to have
fully working video in some sort of VM. If anyone has achieved that,
preferably with Linux but failing that with Windows, I would
appreciate any tips on how to set it up. VideoSoftware used to more
or less work in a VM, but I've never been able to get OpenGL to do
much more than open the window and display OSD messages.

then becomes the entry point for associating the current
thread with the rendering context, which is currently
only known to be necessary for OpenGL.

I __think__ this is the actually correct way to do it, but not sure. Someone please have a look at this...
Not sure if this changes anything anyway, since we're using scissor rects to clip this stuff anyway... Maybe the screen edges weren't cleaned properly before though.

The Super Mario Sunshine glitch is caused by another issue and will be addressed in my next commit.

- Clear alpha channel to 0xFF instead of 0x00 whenever we (re-)create the EFB texture
- Disable color/alpha channels whenever the actual EFB format doesn't use them
Fixes issue 2826.
Fixes issue 1879.
Please check if issue 3014 is fixed now, as well as any other games which might have broken due to ClearScreen changes.
For what it's worth, Super Mario Sunshine still shows a small glitch even with these changes.

Assist trophies in SSBB work fine now, Super Mario Sunshine is a little broken again.
Still needs some more work...
