rodolfoosvaldobogado eaa1ea71c1 Implement the new buffer approach in opengl. sadly in my machine it gives my only 2 more fps and if your hardware does not support ARB_map_buffer_range is even slower than plain vertex arrays.
change naming in all the backends vertex managers to make more easy to continue with the merge an some future improvements.
please test this as i'm interested in knowing the performance in linux and windows with the different hardware platforms.

rodolfoosvaldobogado 72cb1734ee Some code cleaning for my last commit.
the amount and size of the buffer is now changed to "new hardware" frienly values and will fall back to the right values if hardware does not support them.
my next commit will be to a branch, with my ogl work.

rodolfoosvaldobogado@gmail.com 5230146c73 Hey, long time no commits :).
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.

Jordan Woyak 3d5d205c73 I think clean up DX11 code a bit. Used "smart" pointers to avoid need to manually AddRef/Release in many places. Eliminated the D3DBlob class (replaced with just D3D10CreateBlob). Eliminated some Init/Shutdown functions (moved stuff into ctors/dtors). This should not affect behavior at all, only code maintainability.

Nolan Check 7c536b8f15 DX11: Support thick lines and large points with geometry shaders. Lines still aren't drawn with correct thickness, see Twilight Princess map. But the map corners are drawn with correct shadow "blobs" for the first time!

NeoBrainX 994913ce07 DX11 code maintenance, part 7:
Header cleanups. If anything, this will decrease compile time.. :P

Jordan Woyak e6658d5339 Minor change to ease video plugin merging. Made static NativeVertexFormat::Create function into a virtual function of VertexManager. I believe this is the last bit of code which is only declared in VideoCommon and defined in each of the plugins.

Nolan Check cb453a0fb3 DX11 plugin: Do destination-alpha in a single pass. No more drawing the same geometry twice! SMG is faster now because it uses destination-alpha extensively. This uses dual-source color blending, a DirectX 10-level feature. The equivalent OpenGL function comes from the GL_ARB_blend_func_extended extension, which was made core in OpenGL 3.3.

Nolan Check b1d6417f13 DX11 plugin: Use a better mechanism to load vertex and index buffers; prevent a potential bug where triangles, lines, and points could fight over the same buffers

Jordan Woyak 841583b8f3 Merged identical VertexManager code from DX9/DX11/OGL plugins into VideoCommon. Still need to merge VertexManager::Flush (will be easier after TextureCache is merged). Purposely using a class/virtualfuncs rather than a namespace so multiple VertexManager can be in one plugin (VideoMergeNew? :p).

NeoBrainX 3ea2a1387c Add a DX11 video plugin.
Might or might not work for you, yet.
Anyway, read the soon to be created forum thread on this plugin before asking any questions.

Huge thanks to rodolfoosvaldobogado for helping me out in various areas.
Also, thanks to everyone on IRC who supported me during development ;)
