use always ppd is a huge gpu performance drop: 20%-50%
and always disable it cause some rendering issues
so there is an option again
But this time it's called "Fast Depth Calculation"
fix issue 6282
The Last Story seems to render a fan with two vertices. It is non-sense as it
shouldn't do anything, but the code underflows at (u32)numVerts-3
The Cheats manager should be updated when the ISO is changed because it's non-modal
Removing code that read the ID from file because the cheats manager only has a use when an emulation is running (when the ID doesn't need to be read from the ISO again because it's in a variable). This fixes loading Gecko codes for .wad during an emulation because "VolumeHandler::GetVolume()" return false in this case
Before this commit, nothing would would be displayed in the "Frames to Record" text control.
This fixes that by setting it to what m_FramesToRecord is initially set to, which is 1 (at the time of this commit).
Example (in step by step explanation):
1. Run Dolphin.
2. Go to Tools -> Fifo Player
3. Go to the Record tab and hit record and then stop without a game loaded.
The button is now disabled and will not become active again for the whole time that Dolphin is running. Dolphin must be closed and then re-opened in order to use it again. This fixes that.
I've tested it with multiple conditions to make sure this doesn't beef anything else related to the Fifo Player.
ie)
- Record then Stop without a game loaded (multiple times)
- Record then Stop with a game loaded (multiple times, as well as testing playback. All of which work fine).
Select the dance mat via Configure > Gamecube > Port 1 > Dance Mat
The dance mat is mapped to the GC Pad:
D-Pad Up = Blue Arrow Up
D-Pad Down = Blue Arrow Down
D-Pad Left = Blue Arrow Left
D-Pad Right = Blue Square
Y Button = Orange Arrow Up
A Button = Orange Arrow Down
X Button = Orange Arrow Right
B Button = Oranage Square
Load by timestamp: load last state is expanded from 1 to 8 actions, for newest to oldest state
Save by timestamp: overwrite the oldest state (or use an empty slot if available)
Adding remaining hardcoded state keys to hotkey dialog
Adding a program exit hotkey
The "Download Codes (WiiRD Database)" button is enabled (and its click return silently without an effect) when "Tools → Cheats Manager" is opened when there's a running emulation for which there's no "[Gecko]" ini section, confusing the user about the reason for not downloading codes or showing an error when there's no running emulation
Solution
when there's a running emulation: fix the button
when there's no running emulation: disable the button (to indicate to the user that this button must be clicked elsewhere, in the ISO settings dialog, the user will realise or remember)
Block braces on new lines.
Also killed off trailing whitespace and dangling elses.
Spaced some things out to make them more readable (only in places where it looked like a bit of a clusterfuck).
- Also killed off some trailing spaces/tabs.
- Updated the license header to be consistent with the rest of the project (All projects are now done moving over to this)
- Also, killed some dangling else's (where appropriate)
Now all the tab fixing is done. No more of this crap should be needed to be pushed. Rejoice!
* VBeam-fix:
Renamed the VBeam variable for clarity.
Fixed VBeam emulation in interlaced mode, removing the hacks in the audio timing. Fixed VBeam emulation in progressive scan mode. Retained the old VBeam speed hack. This option has now been switched so that the accurate behaviour is on by default and the speed hack (inaccurate behaviour) is enabled when the option is checked.
Also, some tab/space mismatches removed from VideoOGL, and some places I missed in VideoDX[number] projects.
Now, the Core is literally the only project with tab/space mismatches (on a large scale).
Fixed VBeam emulation in progressive scan mode.
Retained the old VBeam speed hack. This option has now been switched so that the accurate behaviour is on by default and the speed hack (inaccurate behaviour) is enabled when the option is checked.
Some indentations were also too far for some things. Fixed this.
Also update the license header to show Git instead of SVN.
Got rid of some trailing spaces/tabs too.
Probably better to keep that same-register-MOV assert useful. Also,
explicit type extension documents whats happening.
Internally, this boils down to the original MOV, but without the assert.
This eliminates constant streams of reports in various games that constantly send audio reports. (Just Dance 2, DKCR, etc.)
(Speaker data reports are converted to rumble reports when speaker data is disabled.)
Also fix up the dangling else's. Shit just looks incredibly ugly in terms of actual structure in the code.
I took the liberty of adding comments in FifoPlayerDlg.cpp, LogConfigWindow.cpp, LogWindow.cpp, and FrameAui.cpp to better explain some things.
If any comments are wrong, don't hesitate to complain.
See Render.cpp, PixelShaderGen.cpp, and PixelShaderManager.cpp for most of the changes.
See VertexShaderManager.cpp for a logging typo fix.
See SWRenderer.cpp for a small typo fix for a message that gets swprintf'd in DrawDebugText.
See SWVertexLoader.cpp for a typo fix of an assert message.
Should slightly improve the readability of some of those files.
GC and Wii games using the AX UCode should now work almost perfectly with DSP
HLE. If you get any issue, make sure the "DSP on dedicated thread" option is
disabled, and try setting framelimit to "Audio".
As a side effect, DSP HLE should not desync anymore (making it usable in
netplay and TAS) with AX games.

Logs should actually be somewhat understandable to some people outside of programming and stuff (in a way). It's certainly better than being bombarded by abbreviations when errors/general logging occur, at least.
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.
Sorry for a direct commit to the main branch but i need fast feedback, and i don't want to leave problematic code in the main branch for a long time.
if this approach does not work for the drivers with problems will transform dual source blend to an option in the D3D9 backend.
I appreciate the help of the people that tested my last commit and thanks to neobrain for pointing this solution.
Convert all quads+triangles into trangle_strip and uses primitive restart to split them.
Speed up triangle_strip, but slows down all others primitive formats.
Only implemented in ogl.
this implementation does not work in windows xp (sorry no support for dual source blending there).
this should improve speed on older hardware or in newer hardware using super sampling.
disable partial fix for 4x supersampling as I'm interested in knowing the original issue with the implementation to fix it correctly.
remove the deprecation label from the plugin while I'm working on it.
* Fast-EE:
Forced the exception check only for ARAM DMA transfers. Removed the Eternal Darkness boot hack and replaced it with an exception check.
Reverted rd76ca5783743 as it was made obsolete by r1d550f4496e4.
Removed the tracking of the FIFO Writes as it was made obsolete by r1d550f4496e4.
Forced the external exception check to occur sooner by changing the downcount.
At the end of July 2011, LM published a free DSP ROM that works with games
using the Zelda UCode. His ROM only has the code to handle UCode loading and a
few utility functions, the rest is missing. This includes the four large sound
mixing functions used by the AX UCode and the DROM containing coefficients used
for polyphase resampling in AX.
This is an improved, updated version of this ROM, which changes the following:
- We now have a free DROM that works for polyphase resampling by "emulating"
linear interpolation. The coefficients contained in the DROM are normally a
list of { c1, c2, c3, c4 } which are used to interpolate a sample value from
four previous samples:
out_sample = prev1 * c1 + prev2 * c2 + prev3 * c3 + prev4 * c4
The coefficients are chosen depending on the fractional part of the current
position (basically, our position between the previous and the next sample).
We can use this fact to generate (c1, c2, c3, c4) for each possible
fractional part so that:
out_sample = prev3 * curr_pos + prev4 * (1 - curr_pos)
Which is the formula for linear interpolation between prev3 and prev4. Linear
interpolation is not as good as polyphase resampling but it still works very
well and I couldn't really hear any difference between the two. If someone
wants to generate real polyphase filter coefficients, they are welcome to
submit a patch.
- The IROM now contains the 4 mixing functions used by the AX UCode: mix_add,
mix_add_two, mix_add_ramp, mix_add_ramp_two. They are large, inlined
functions (probably for performance reasons) in the official DSP IROM, our
version prefers to use a loop. This *should* be more performant with our DSP
JIT implementation, but I did not benchmark that.
Because the new DSP ROM is working just as well as the official ROM in 95% of
cases, it is now shipped by default with Dolphin and will be used with DSPLLE
if you don't have an official DSP ROM in User/GC. It will still display a panic
alert at every boot to notice you that you are using a non official DSP ROM
made by us, which is not perfect.
Games using the CARD, IPL or GBA UCodes are still broken. I don't know what
games this actually impacts, but this is a very small proportion compared to
what works.
Merge an endless story. The branch name is a lie, it was started as glsl, but now it is a complete reworked opengl3 backend.
It just began with simple changes which aren't supported on osx.
They either support ogl2 OR ogl3 core, but mixing isn't allowed.
As the branch name says, the vicious circle starts with GLSL, but just implementing one wasn't possible either:
- OSX supports only GLSL100 which doesn't support our shaders.
- Vertex Array Objects are needed for ogl3, but not supported on ogl2
- immediate mode isn't supported any more, so we must implement vertex buffers
- uniform buffers are recommended as else we would need tons glUniform
- postprocessing shaders have to be converted to glsl
- lots of smaller outdated issues and bug fixes :-)
Thanks at all for testing and at Sonic for converting all of our shaders to glsl130
And sorry for all upcoming bugs...

* FIFO-BP: (31 commits)
Set g_bSignalTokenInterrupt on the main thread. Fixes the random hang in Harry Potter: Prisoner of Azkaban.
Used a scheduled event to generate the ARAM DMA interrupt if the DMA is greater than a certain size. Fixes NFS:HP2 GC.
Bumped up the disc transfer speed enough to prevent audio stuttering in Gauntlet: Dark Legacy.
Enabled Synchronise GPU on "SPEED CHALLENGE - Jacques Villeneuve's Racing Vision". Required to go in-game.
Added direct GameCube controller commands to the Serial Interface emulation. Fixes the controls in MaxPlay Classic Games Volume 1 and the Action Replay disc.
Increased the FIFO buffer size to 2MB from 1MB. Fixes Killer 7's Angel boss.
Used an immediate GenerateDSPInterrupt when transferring data from ARAM to MRAM and a scheduled DSP interrupt when transferring data from MRAM to ARAM.
Fixes the audio cutting in and out in the Resident Evil GC games using DSP HLE. Triggered the ARAM interrupt by the scheduler instead of directly in function.
Implemented proper timing for the sample counter in the AudioInterface, removing the previous hack. Cleaned up some of the audio streaming code.
Skipped the EE check if there is a CP interrupt pending.
Disabled "Speed up disc transfer" from the ZTP GC game ini.
Removed the disc seek times for GC games and removed the disc speed option on Wii games. Checked for external exceptions only in mtmsr.
Delayed the interrupts in the EXI Channel.
Merge aram-dma-fixes (r76a13604ef49b522281af75675f044d59a74e871)
Added a patch that bypasses the FIFO reset code in Wallace and Gromit: Project Zoo, allowing it to go in-game.
Made vertex loading take constant time.
Increased the cycle time of the vertex command. Fixes "Speed Challenge: Jacques Villeneuve's Racing Vision".
Moved the setting of the Finish interrupt signal back to the main thread as it was causing Wii games like Resident Evil 4 (Wii) to hang.
Profile stores, fp stores and ps stores only to the fifo write addresses list. This should make the JIT a little faster as it will not be checking for external exceptions unnecessarily.
