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

(It is a bit unfortunate that some of the plugins have a Config.h of
their own, which can confuse this matter.)

Dual Core sync fix.
When the FIFO is processing data we must not advance the cpu cycles in CoreTiming because in this way the VI will be desynchronized. So, We are waiting until the FIFO finish and while we process only the events required by the FIFO.
This should fix Issue 2072 .
This affect to all games in dual core mode.
Please, You can test all games with VPS limiter auto, 60, 50 depending of the game and compare with prev revision.
For example now NSMB in the video Intro has 60 fps (prev 30 fps) :D or SMG does't need anymore FPS Limitter Hack to get 55-60 fps
Beside the slowdowns now are more softly and the fps more stables because the VI sync is almost perfect.
The Core Timing and Fifo modifications are delicated. Please report if this hang any game. Don't forget check with prev revision.
Enjoy it! Thanks to Rodolfo for teach me all about dolphin.

- be more strict with the input signature of generated pixel shaders
- replace the D3D parameter with an API_TYPE one, so that we can further distinguish between DX9 and DX11
- for what it's worth dx11 (using vs_4_0) doesn't support D3DCOLORtoUBYTE4; added a workaround for this
- add a "dx9-" prefix to the shader cache files to avoid conflicts with dx11 shaders
Apart from that we're calling CommandProcessor::Shutdown() in main.cpp,Shutdown() now.
Delete all files in User/ShaderCache if you want to save a few KB disk space :P

Patch from user gamepromcompany on the MacOSX_Build wiki page.
Add support for the Mac command key as a hotkey modifier in
WXKeyToString but present it as Control. WXKeyToString is used for
both hotkeys and menu accelerators, the latter only supporting
Shift/Alt/Control with wxWidgets.
wxSpinCtrl on wx 2.9 has a very small default size, so give the
window size ones a reasonable size.
Use wxFULLSCREEN_ALL when switching to fullscreen, which gets rid
of window decorations like the title bar. Note that to actually
be rid of it with wx 2.9 on OS X, you'll need this patch:

Not only does it change tons of files to switch to a new and non-working (it doesn't parse my ini files, at least) ini parser, it also reshuffles a lot of code and removes a plugin. The latter part is fine, but doing these two major switches in one revision, one of which is broken, is completely unacceptable. I said to merge tiny changes, not massive reworkings.

variables, writeable strings and dangerously shadowed variables.
index(), gamma(), exp() and y0() are POSIX functions and using those
names can cause namespace confusion.
A number of C files were missing the final newline required by ANSI C
and some versions of GCC are pedantic enough to complain about this.
These changes simply the scons build, allowing us to get rid of
filterWarnings which is simply more trouble than it's worth.

All visuals with parameter GLX_SAMPLE_BUFFERS_ARB = 0 have
GLX_SAMPLES_ARB = 0, so the old code would only ever choose
visuals with GLX_SAMPLE_BUFFERS_ARB>=1 and GLX_SAMPLES_ARB>=1.
Some drivers do not export any multisampling capable visuals,
so dolphin fails to find a matching visual and falls back to
the single buffered visual(which does not work for some yet
unknown reason). Fixes issue #2647.

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.

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

after some test the more relevant parameters were the color samples and the tlut max size.
so delete the rest of the parameters and define 3 modes:
Safe : the two values are set to 0 meaning all the texture data and all the tlut data are hashed this is the most correct and slowwwwwwwwwww way
Normal: 37 samples are taken from the color textures an the firs 4096 bytes of the tlut are hashed, is a lot faster than safe mode but in some games i observe small glitches.
Fast: 8 samples are taken from the color textures an the first 1024 bytes are hashed from the tlut, is a little slower than the unsafe cache but at least all the games i tested have correct text output and fast frame rate. the glitches in dinamyc color textures are more noticeable in this mode
this values could be improved, if you find a better combination please post it and the game it fixes and i will update the source.
for the moment, as my time is limited by a lot of work, only implemented the d3d gui, if someone can implement the opengl gui will be a lot of help for me.
please test a lot and let me know the results.

fixed a misbehavior in the clear code that causes depth clear problems in reference hardware (Intel as example).
add 6 parameters to optimize Safe Texture Cache:
SafeTextureCacheColorSamples, SafeTextureCacheIndexedSamples, SafeTextureCacheTlutSamples:
this 3 parameters gives the number of samples taken to calculate the final hash value, less samples = more speed, more samples = more accuracy
if 0 is specified the hash is calculated using all the data in the texture.
SafeTextureCacheColorMaxSize, SafeTextureCacheIndexedMaxSize, SafeTextureCacheTlutMaxSize:
this parameters limits the amount of data used for the hash calculation, it could appear as redundant but in some games is better to make a full hash of the first bytes instead of some samples of all the texture.
color, indexed, tlut : define the texture type, full color data, indexed, and the tlut memory.
the parameters are available in the config , no GUI at this time, if the test are OK will add it to the GUI.
if someone needs it will give more examples on how to configure the values for specific games.

Removed X event loops from GCPad and Wiimote plugins, and implemented an asynchronous check for keyboard and mouse buttons.
Also added an X event loop in core that handles events while the emulator is paused. Prevents unexpected behavior from events that occur while the emulator is paused.

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.

D3D
renamed the SSAA modes to use samples as MSAA now they are 2,25x and 4x.
OpenGL:

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

first fixed scaling when updating backbuffer to make it friendly with encoders, now frame dumping must work without errors in any codec.
clean screenshot and frame dumping code now is more correct, faster and stable.
improve safe texture cache, improving the distribution of the hash algorithm, including tlut hash in the final hash of the texture, and making use of a 64 bit hash to make it more accurate.
clean a lot of code and corrected some missused vertex formats when drawing full screen quads.
and biggest change last:
implemented pseudo antialiasing: a image post-process algorithm that mimics antialiazing and is fare more easier to implement in this scenario.
you can change the intensity of the effect changing the values of the antialiasing combo. the right value depends on the game.
for example mkwii looks awesome with 8x.
please try all the changes and let me know the results.
if something is broken, please let me know and will fix it asap.

2. Fixed clear of VI interrupts

All you gotta do is Pause the emulation! That's useful for when your batteries run out during gameplay, for example...
But if you change the WiiMote source (between Emulated, Real or Inactive) you must disconnect and reconnect (Menu Tools -> Connect WiiMote) the WiiMotes affected by the change...
Thanks to jack.fr0st who did all the emulation state notification work!
Now every plugin has a way to know the current emulation state (paused, stopped or playing)
@ayuanx: I thought about doing a PostMessage(g_WiimoteInitialize.hWnd, WM_USER, WIIMOTE_DISCONNECT, current_number); so that the user gets asked to reconnect that WiiMote, trying to avoid having to disconnect and reconnect, but it didn't work because shooting that message only asks to reconnect, doesn't do a disconnect... Do you have any ideas on how to accomplish that?
Also, if anyone could check if Issue 1916 is finally fixed... Or at least when is the cursor being hidden or not...

in D3D and Opengl:
fixed one nasty bug in texture loading where if a dynamic texture keeps his format but the tlut format is changed, the try or reloading the texture in the same texture could cause a hang if the size of the resulting texture is different than the original (size in bytes)
Applied a ugly temporal hack to the texture conversor to solve efb to ram misalignments and effect distortions.
in D3D:
Pseudo implementation of logic ops using basic blending: the first 8 operations are "good approximations", the remaining 8 are bullshit :) if someone have a better approximation to emulate this logic please let me know.

corrected a little depth textures still broken but now at least i discover the reason, the ultra bad news for d3d lover is, the only correct way to implement depth textures will be do a firs depth only pass disabling blending.
This is because blending is affecting the values stored in the depth texture, so to store the true values, blending mus be deactivated.
this will degrade performance but is the only "Correct" way in d3d 9. the other possibility is dx10 but that's a complete different story ;)

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.

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

please test specially in paper mario and Killer 7 that where games where supposedly this was used.

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.

Code cleanup in nJoy i had around for a while, it also adds code to support SDL 1.3's force feedback API and is more stable (will not crash anymore on stop when rumble is enabled)

implemented buffer format fall back to allow hardware that don't support lockable formats to run the games with Z peeking disabled, applied as well the patch suggested in issue 1494 please give heavy test to this commit

Opengl:
Reorder the rendering path to make it more generic, and a little bit faster i think.
Reduce the index Buffer size to make it more Friendly to older video hardware.
get rid of the remaining annoying sps (I hope).
D3D:
Implement the same path as opengl to make the plugins more similar and maintainable.
Fixed Peek_Z this means, Pushing stars in SMG Now Works.
Please give heavy testing to this changes and compare the performance with the old path.
Thanks to hrydgard for let me participate :).
