The option is named DisableCopyToVRAM under the Hacks section in
GFX.ini. It is intentionally not exposed to the GUI, as users should not
need to use it under normal circumstances. The main use is debugging
issues in the EFB-to-RAM shaders.
This could cause glReadPixels() calls which assume no buffer is bound
(e.g. CPU EFB access) to fail. The problem was limited to devices which
don't support persistent mapping, as the map path is not otherwise.
Whenever udev_monitor_receive_device() returns a non-null pointer,
the device must be unref'd after use with udev_device_unref().
We previously missed some unref calls for non-evdev devices.
Both libusbhid (system library) and libhidapi (3rd party library)
provide a function called hid_init. Dolphin was being linked to both.
The WiimoteScannerHidapi constructor was calling hid_init without
arguments. libusbhid's hid_init expects one argument (a file path).
It was being called as if it was defined without arguments, which
resulted in a garbage path being passed in, and because of that,
the Qt GUI was failing to launch with the following error:
'dolphin-emu-qt2: @ : No such file or directory'
It's not guaranteed that the eventfd is smaller than the monitor fd,
because fds are not always monotonically allocated. To select()
correctly in all cases, use the max between the monitor fd and eventfd.
The console appears to behave against standard IEEE754 specification
here, in particular around how NaNs are handled. NaNs appear to have no
effect on the result, and are treated the same as positive or negative
infinity, based on the sign bit.
However, when the result would be NaN (inf - inf, or (-inf) - (-inf)),
this results in a completely fogged color, or unfogged color
respectively. We handle this by returning a constant zero for the A
varaible, and positive or negative infinity for C depending on the sign
bits of the A and C registers. This ensures that no NaN value is passed
to the GPU in the first place, and that the result of the fog
calculation cannot be NaN.
- Smplification of graphics backend startup/shutdown.
- Don't send complete message until CPU is ready to execute.
- Remove redundant stop message.
- Remove OSD message with backend name.
Android is allowed to pick any path for the external storage media and
that's why we should always use Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory()
to get the external storage path
onCreateView might not be called after resuming the emulatoin wich will
leed the game to stuck in the middle since mRunWhenSurfaceIsValid will be
true but surfaceChanged will never be called in this case.
If Animator Duration Scale is Off, the Enhancements/Hacks screens were
not visible unless you enable the Animator Duration Scale back. This
make sure screens will be visible regardless of your animation settings.
Modified NativeLibrary to display alerts in AlertDialogs rather than Toast notifications, and allow yes/no options.
Modified MainAndroid to use the new displayAlertMsg, and to return its output.
Otherwise we might get UB if the value we cast is larger than the
max value of the underlying type that the compiled picked for the enum.
I haven't done any extensive check through Dolphin to find cases
of this, I'm just fixing the cases I already know of.
1. Allow users to pick games dircetory from external storage.
2. Better UX experince to distinguish between selecting a directory or
a game. The later is needed when we implement change disk for android.
Tested on a linux Intel Skylake integrated graphics with
blend_func_extended force-disabled, as it's the only platform I have
that doesn't crash with ubershaders and supports fb_fetch
It seems it doesn't like modifying inout variables in place - so instead
use a temporary for ocol0/ocol1 and only write them once at the end of
the shader
The advantage of std::list is that elements can be removed from the
middle efficiently, but we don't actually need that, because the
ordering of the elements doesn't matter for us. We can just replace the
element we want to remove with the last element and then call pop_back.
Replacing list with vector should speed up looping through the elements.
GameTracker's usage of GameFileCache is thread-safe even without
using a mutex. All of its access to GameFileCache happens on the
thread m_load_thread, except for the call to GameFileCache::Load,
which finishes before m_load_thread starts executing.
Starting with 5.0-5504, trying to launch DolphinQt2 from Visual Studio
shows the error message "The operation could not be completed. Undefined
error" instead of launching the exe file. (The exe gets created
correctly, it just doesn't get launched. It's possible to work around
the problem by launching the exe manually outside of Visual Studio, but
then you won't have an attached debugger automatically.) This commit
fixes that by removing headers from DolphinQt2.vcxproj's ClInclude list
that already are in the QtMoc list. (The problem was originally about
LogWidget.h and LogConfigWidget.h, but 5.0-5600 made the problem be
about CheatWarningWidget.h and GeckoCodeWidget.h instead.)
1) Most of the times the native heap is kept around even after the activity
is killed, we can ask the native code if it is still running and resume
the emulation if that is the case.
2) In case the native heap is freed and the emulation can't resume we used
a temporary state to load on the game boot.
I couldn't find a way to test this, if you want to test this schnario,
add this block to EmulationFragment.
public void onDestroy()
{
stopEmulation();
super.onDestroy();
}
onDestroy is only called if the acivity killed by the OS and not be rotation
change whihch in this case will make sure to kill the emulation and start
again when the activiy is re-created.
Note: By "HandleInit" in this commit message, I mean the code that is
in HandleInit in master except the part that launches EmulationActivity.
In other words, I mean the call to SetUserDirectory and the call to
DirectoryInitializationService.startService. Couldn't think of
something more accurate to call that than "HandleInit"...
In master, HandleInit only runs when the main activity is launched.
This is a problem if the app ends up being launched in some other way,
such as resuming EmulationActivity after the app has been killed in
order to reclaim memory. It's important that we run HandleInit, because
otherwise the native code won't know where the User and Sys folders are.
In order to implement this, I'm dropping the ability to set a custom
User folder in an intent. I don't think anyone is using that anyway.
It's not impossible to support it, but I can't see a way to support
it that doesn't involve something ugly like having code for calling
HandleInit in every activity (or at least MainActivity + TvMainActivity
+ EmulationActivity, with more activities potentially needing it in
the future if we expand the usage of native code for e.g. settings).
If we want to support setting a custom user directory, we should
consider another way to do it, such as a setting that's stored in
getFilesDir() or getExternalStorageDirectory(). Intents are intended
to control the behavior of a specific activity, not the whole app.
There are two reasons for this change:
1. It removes many repetitive lines of code.
2. I think it's a good idea to enable the use of old-style section
names even for settings that previously haven't been settable in game
INIs. Mixing the two styles in INIs (using the new style only for new
settings) is not ideal, and people on the forums don't even seem to
know that the new style exists (nobody knew a way to set ubershader
settings per game, for instance). Encouraging everyone to start using
only the new style might work long-term, but it would take take time
and effort to make everyone get used to it. Considering that this commit
*reduces* the amount of code by adding the ability to use old-style
names for more settings, I'd say that adding this ability is worth it.
You will see an empty gc pad settings screen until you open any other
settings screen and change something, at that moment the Dolphin.ini will
be created and the gc pad settings will be loaded successfully the next
time you open the screen.
This fixes the bug by putting the default gc pad settings section even if
the Dolphin.ini file doesn't exist
Trying to force the XSI version by undefining _GNU_SOURCE can lead
to compilation errors on some systems because of headers expecting
that _GNU_SOURCE is defined.
This commit uses define checks to detect which version we have.
I tried making an overloaded function (int and const char*) instead,
but that led to a warning about one of the variants being unused.
This solves the following issues:
1. If user uninstall Dolphin and install it again the resources will
not be copied unless the user manually clear the app cache because we
are enabling the allowBackup flag in the manifest which will make the app
restore the settings saved in the shared prefernces including the flag
assetsCopied. This PR always copy the files everytime you open Dolphin.
2. If the AssetCopyService took long time and you tried to open the settings
screen or start a game the behaviour was not expected or the emulator will
crash, this PR make sure that whatever we add to the DirectoryInitializationService
or how long it will take will still work as expected by blocking both
the settings screen and the emulaion screen to wait untill all resources
needed are copied.
3. Better communication between the DirectoryInitializationService and the
UI screens using brocast messages.
The Time Base Register was added under the BAT registers. TBL and TBU
were ORed together to get one 64-bit value to display. It is labeled TB
The Graphics Quantisation Registers were added under the Segment
Registers. They are Labeled GQR0-GQR7.
All new registers are read only.
GLES doesn't support C-style array initialisers, so stuff like:
Type var[2] = {
VALUE_A,
VALUE_B
};
isn't supported in GLES (it was added in
GL_ARB_shading_language_420pack).
The texture conversion shader used this, so would fail to compile on
GLES.
The PC offset ADRP() path takes a s32 value, but the input offset was
being tested as abs(ptr) < 0xFFFFFFFF. This caused values between
0x80000000 and 0xFFFFFFFF to incorrectly use this path, despite the
offsets not being representable in an s32.
This caused a crash in the VertexLoader on android 8.1 immediate in wind
waker (and possibly all other apps on android 8.1) as the jit and data
sections happened to be loaded 4gb apart in virtual memory, causing some
pointers to hit this
Some homebrew expect exception handlers to be present -- which is
almost always the case on console, since most of the time homebrew are
launched from either a libogc or SDK title) -- and break if they are
not. To fix this, we just need to include default, dummy handlers.
Set HID0, HID4, GPR1 to values that are used by libogc for
initialisation. This makes boots more similar to a launch
from the HBC or another loader, since normally the registers
have already been initialised by the loader.
This fixes a crash in homebrew that assume GPR1 points to a correct
location and attempt to use it before initialising registers.
