return to the old values in constants in pixelshader, the old values give mi 3 or 4 fps more,(maybe some kind of compiler optimization) in some games and with the current algorithm i notice no difference with this values, please report any problem.
optimizes SSAA to make it a little faster and, the quality should be the same but with a little speedup.
change the way the frame is processed depending is xfb is enabled or not to make this a little faster.
please test and report any problem

1 - Optimize pixelshadergen to avoid redundant register overflow math, with this if a game don't need this will be not applied.
this must bring some fill rate back and improve speed a little in fill rate limited systems.
2- some corrections to vertexshadergen to avoid uninitialized texture coordinates, dono if is the correct way to fix it but t least it will make house of the dead overkill playable in dx11.
the bad thing: still missing geometri in dx9, in dx11 it works exactly as on opengl.
3 - some optimization made to improve fps a little wih the latests changes made to fifo.
* back to the original code in beginfield as now it will work right.
* check for efb access more often as a lot of time is lost waiting for efb access
4 - apply a little fix for missing textures in nvidia opengl tanks to Wagnard28 for finding that nvidia does not like invalid shader id :)
please test for any regression
git-svn-id: https://dolphin-emu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@5812 8ced0084-cf51-0410-be5f-012b33b47a6e
fixed screen clearing and simplify drawClearQuad a little
put some nice code from dx11 that i like in dx9.
modify plugin spec preparing for implementing efb poke (is not used often but is a missing functionality so..)
please test.

in general cleanup and bugfix disable pierre patch for the moment as it causes problem in some games and hopefully fix the remaining missing textures for nvidia users in opengl.
make the code in pixelshadergen looks nice and readable.
D3D: this is a ultra experimental commit please check for regressions or error.
make the efb Scale / super sampling level customizable to improve the output quality and let the user configure quality according to his hardware.
is everyone likes this change will translate it to opengl
please test
git-svn-id: https://dolphin-emu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@5612 8ced0084-cf51-0410-be5f-012b33b47a6e
implemented fixed efb scale to improve alignment and discard some error caused by incorrect scale.
make both plugins work similar. this must improve opengl image quality a lot.
also implemented dynamic resizing in opengl, this way the resolution math the windows resolution on resize.
this is highly experimental so please test a lot.
implemented shader dumping on error thinking in future experiments with shaders.
enjoy :)

fixed fps display in the top bar, now it shows the real fps of the game.
some code clean up and some corrections to make everything work right in the reference renderer.
multiples xfb now is broken even in single core as is was not an error caused by dual core, i really dono where the error is,everything looks correct but if you test a game with multiples xfb or the ipl you will see the error.
ector if you can take a look at he code and throw me some ideas i'll thank you.
please test.
git-svn-id: https://dolphin-emu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@5272 8ced0084-cf51-0410-be5f-012b33b47a6e
the problem is one strange behavior i found, in opengl when xfb is enable, frame limit causes the frame rate to be limited exact half the correct speed, so if you choose auto and the game uses 30 fps you get 15 fps
so in opengl, you have to limit to the exact double of the game speed, 100 to pal games and 120 to ntsc.
in d3d this not happened every time, it just happen when you change some time consuming setting like changing the ssaa or resizing the window, in that case you have to disable and re enable frame limit to get the correct fps
to all the devs please if you can help me debug this, will give you a lot of thanks as i'm short in time to debug this error and is driving me crazy not to find the source of the problem.

applied mlkbouba patch to make Mario Strikers Charged Football work (i do not own the game so please test).
some minor tweaks to the plugins to improve performance. for game that do not use xfb the best settings are dual core enabled, audio throtle disabled, frame limit set to the desired value, and xfb off.
change the frameskip calculations to use fps instead of vps as in dual core vps != fps caused by unresolved sync problems, till this problems are fixed the best for game play is calculate times in base of fps.
please test and let me know the results

sorry to tell but this will bring a speed drop, so let you decide if this change stay or not.( used the fastest open source hash algorithm i know)
do not apply full hashing to other format because it kills the performance.
for popular request added 9x SSAA believe me will kill your graphic card even if is the best but the image quality is exceptional.
as always please test and let me know the results.
git-svn-id: https://dolphin-emu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@5034 8ced0084-cf51-0410-be5f-012b33b47a6e
reverted a tiny leftover of my safe texture cache commit
D3D
renamed the SSAA modes to use samples as MSAA now they are 2,25x and 4x.
OpenGL:
fixed a nasty logical bug introduced in 4984 that causes efb corruption when efb to texture is used
re enabled shader caching as it was not producing errors.
fixed efb misalignment caused by integer rounding still a bit misaligned but many games will look better now
git-svn-id: https://dolphin-emu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@5020 8ced0084-cf51-0410-be5f-012b33b47a6e
chage the global format of the screenshots to bmp, is correctly supported by both plugins and is faster.
reverted the changes in safe texture cache, will try to make them more stable then commit them, this should fix compilation in linux and macand error introduced in MP games
corrected all the issues commented by ector, thanks for the comments alway is good that the code is revised by others to find missed spots.
please report any remaining issue to solve them.
git-svn-id: https://dolphin-emu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@5001 8ced0084-cf51-0410-be5f-012b33b47a6e
Basic usage: "sudo scons install=global install"
Hopefully this doesn't break builds on Macs. I have tested this on linux and windows.

Now the frame limiter yields on CPU thread, not as before on GPU thread mistakenly
2. Fixed clear of VI interrupts
I guess VI interrupts are not used at all, because they were never cleared before
3. Made GPU thread 0% processor usage when paused whatever your active config is.
I tried the event approach but somehow the thread resume latency is excessively long (Who can tell me why?)
git-svn-id: https://dolphin-emu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4790 8ced0084-cf51-0410-be5f-012b33b47a6e
D3D: add the EFB Copy option to complete Rodolfo's commit plus add the Overlay FPS and the Disable Fog options
also change the config dialog's behaviour a bit

Now efb to ram display correctly but still is misaligned by one pixel
please test and give me feedback
git-svn-id: https://dolphin-emu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4618 8ced0084-cf51-0410-be5f-012b33b47a6e
in direct3d this is different, the only valid values are between 0.0 an 1.0 so fix this and let the shader handle the rest.
please test all this and let me know the results.
git-svn-id: https://dolphin-emu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4494 8ced0084-cf51-0410-be5f-012b33b47a6e
This is a test, clamp the values to see if this fix the problem, please test a lot don't know if this breaks something else
git-svn-id: https://dolphin-emu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4491 8ced0084-cf51-0410-be5f-012b33b47a6e
please test specially in paper mario and Killer 7 that where games where supposedly this was used.
git-svn-id: https://dolphin-emu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4470 8ced0084-cf51-0410-be5f-012b33b47a6e
thanks a lot to chaoscode he make possible to test this on nvidia. please test this a lot and give me feedback :)

d3d: remove the depth texture path it will not work so for now only lockable textures were available. i thing the only way will be a use a secondary render target and do a depth pass to mimic depth textures.
opengl: minor cleanup here and there and a possible fix to issue 1509, but not tested because in my system the errors remarked in the issue don't show.
commond: code reorganization an optimization in the pixel shader generator, trying to understand the tev stages, make some changes to make the generator faster (not much only started for the alpha test and fog).
this changes try start solving the diferences bethen the hardware plugins and the soft plugin.
i hope with i don't brake nothing but please test this a lot.
