OS X's shader compiler has a bug with interface blocks where interface block members don't properly inherit the layout qualifier from the interface
block.
Work around this limitation by explicitly stating the layout qualifier on both the interface block and every single member inside of that block.
Fast depth is now more accurate than slow depth and should always be used.
The option will be kept in a different form as it is still used as a hack to fix some games.
Also, the slow depth code path will still be relied upon by cards that don't support GL_ARB_clip_control.
(x % y) is not defined in GLSL when sign(x) != sign(y).
This also has the added benefit of behaving the same as sampler wrapping modes, in regards to negative inputs.
This fixes the crashes occuring at startup with a non-empty shader cache.
Because LinearDiskCache reads/writes to the storage of ShaderUid, ShaderUid must be trivially copyable.
Additionally, adds a static assert to LinearDiskCache to ensure this doesn't happen in the future.
The initialization of ShaderUid data has been moved to the code generation functions, so the above condition holds true.
This should fix this panic message I saw when playing Super Mario Strikers:
Failed to compile pixel shader [...]: error C7011: implicit cast from "int" to "float"
The Star Wars games really push the hardware to its limits, which can cause the shaders that are produced to be 18kb or more.
Double our maximum shader size to compensate.
Fixes issue #8860
This bug has been reported to IMGTec at https://pvrsupport.imgtec.com/ticket/472
The basic idea of the bug is that if you're doing a bitwise and of a constant value vector with a constant scalar value, this causes PowerVR's shader
compiler to fail out with a very non-descriptive message.
Working around the issue by making the value a vector that it is being masked by.
The obvious question here is, why does it matter if we round or truncate?
The key is that GC/Wii does fixed-point interpolation, where PC GPUs do
floating-point interpolation. Discarding fractional bits makes the conversion
from floating-point to fixed point give more consistent results.
I'm not confident this is really the right fix, or that my explanation is
completely correct; ideally, we don't want to depend on floating-point
interpolation at all.
- Calculate ZSlope every flush but only set PixelShader Constant on Reset Buffer when zfreeze
- Fixed another Pixel Shader bug in D3D that was giving me grief
Results are still not correct, but things are getting closer.
* Don't cull CULLALL primitives so early so they can be used as reference
planes.
* Convert CalculateZSlope to screenspace coordinates.
* Convert Pixelshader to screenspace coordinates (instead of worldspace
xy coordinates, which is totally wrong)
* Divide depth by 2^24 instead of clamping to 0.0-1.0 as was done
before.
Progress:
* Rouge Squadron 2/3 appear correct in game (videos in rs2 save file
selection are missing)
* Shadows draw 100% correctly in NHL 2003.
* Mario golf menu renders correctly.
* NFS: HP2, shadows sometimes render on top of car or below the road.
* Mario Tennis, courts and shadows render correctly, but at wrong depth
* Blood Omen 2, doesn't work.
Initial port of original zfreeze branch (3.5-1729) by neobrain into
most recent build of Dolphin.
Makes Rogue Squadron 2 very playable at full speed thanks to recent core
speedups made to Dolphin. Works on DirectX Video plugin only for now.
Enjoy! and Merry Xmas!!
