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.
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.

* 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.

Adds support for PE performance metrics.
Used in Super Mario Sunshine's "Scrubbing Sirena Beach" level to determine when enough goop has been cleaned up to finish the level.
Also used in TimeSplitters: Future Perfect to determine the appearance of flares around light sources (e.g. sun).
OpenGL and D3D11 only. D3D9 support unlikely to be added unless anyone bothers to do the work.
Initial work and D3D11 support by me. Kudos go to Billiard for adding the OpenGL support and reviving development of this branch that way :D
Slightly (~7%) decreases performance when performance metrics are used (and only then).
Fixes issue 1498.
Fixes issue 5368.

* master: (70 commits)
Fixes two memory leaks, one is pretty bad for OSX. Yell at pauldachz if this doesn't work. Or... say thanks.
Added a BluetoothEnumerateInstalledServices call so that the wiimote remembers the pairing.
Make ARMJit core default CPU core on ARM architecture
Fix a StringUtil regression from the arm-noglsl merge
Small improvement to cmpli/cmpi in ARMJit.
Merge latest ArmEmitter changes from ppsspp while we're at it.
Ah. I blame vim on this typo entirely.
Add disabled code for authenticating wiimotes on Windows.
Add the missing FPR cache
Buildfix.
Yell at the user if they change window size while dumping frames, and some other avi dumping stuff.
Not sure if this is the right way to handle this, but it makes the save states perfectly stable. That's all that really matters, right?
Abort loading states from incompatible graphics backends.
ARM Support without GLSL
Improve VideoSoftware save states. They are fairly stable, but not perfect. OpcodeDecoder::DoState() needs to be fixed.
Begin implementing save states to video software. Kind of works, sometimes.
Make error message for loading save state with wrong dsp engine shorter.
Abort load state if it uses a different dsp engine, instead of crashing.
Update the gameini of F-zero. Efb to Ram is no longer the default choice.
