Should fix most graphical issues with Paper Mario: TTYD and Super Paper Mario. Fixes issue 360.
Since only those two games seem to require BBox support, and as per ector's suggestion, BBox is only enabled for those two games.
BBoxes and Display List Caches don't get along too well, causing Paper Mario: TTYD to hang during certain effects where BBoxes are used. For now, I disabled DList Cache for the Paper Mario games, hopefully both will be compatible in the future.
- Added final support to string type (planned implementation reaches 100%)
- Added support to post processing shaders (OpenGL backend)
- Code Maintenance:
- Reorganized the class hierarchy
- General polishing... deleted some redundant code

* Moved the config validity check to reflect the emulator enforced settings at the config dialog
* Removed some obsolete validity checks
* Corrected "EnablePixelLighting" typo in the ini files
Fixes issue 4277.

This allows ALL settings in the gfx configuration dialog to be adjusted _per game_ in a more user-friendly way than before.
Obsoletes the gfx related options in the ISO properties, but I kept those since the configuration profiles use different ini file keys (i.e. convert the game inis to the new naming, please!).
git-svn-id: https://dolphin-emu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@7167 8ced0084-cf51-0410-be5f-012b33b47a6e
Also verify the validity of gfx configuration directly after loading rather than in the GUI code (which was kinda stupid anyway).

- dislocating all sensible stuff related to "values per game/pattern" outside the sourcecode.
- giving more control to end-users across the user-friendly interface.
- deleting/cleaning some dead variables.
- updating all gameconfig.ini data to reflect new PHack concept (pending upload).
* Updated Italian translation
- Includes corrections, a better strings translating and suggestions directly by Google Code's people.
+ Minor old pending changes...

Whatever that means, it fixes that stupid Super Mario Sunshine glitch and possibly lots of other stuff, so test as many glitchy games as possible with this ;)

skid_au had implemented this in a previous revision and enabled it by default, but it caused glitches if STC wasn't set to "safe" (which kinda defeated the purpose since it slowed down stuff again).
Also renamed the "safe texture cache" to "accurate texture cache", since setting the "safe" texture cache to "safe" sounds kind of silly..

Separated UI from debugger functionality. Generally cleaned up that stuff.
Most functionality needs to be reimplemented now, but will be available to D3D9, D3D11 as well as OpenGL then.

first fix for issues introduced in sms in r6501, please test for a regressions in The Calling
Second Fix for Issue 3539, by making pixel Dept calculation an option. in games with this issue Enabling pixel depth will solve the issue, in other games disabling the option will not cause speed lost
some cleanup in dlist cache

- Add some info about a backend's feature set (MSAA, Real XFB, EFB to RAM, ..) to VideoConfig
- Gray out options if they aren't supported by the backend or if changing them doesn't affect anything (e.g. changing STC mode if STC is disabled)
- Allow signed bytes for D3D11. Not sure if this causes glitches, but it should work
- Call wxEvent.Skip() in the event function handlers, not sure if this fixes any bugs but the old code definitely caused bugs during development of this patch
- Fix a memory leak in the configuration dialog if D3D11 is used
- Other minor stuff that doesn't need to be mentioned or which I forgot

Not sure how to fix Dolphins hotkeys when 3D Vision is enabled (I do know a way, but it's messy and I don't want 3D Vision messing with Dolphin's cleanliness).

Renamed EFB Scale to Internal Resolution.
Removed Auto Scale option (it is now always on).
Added on-the-fly changing of the Internal Resolution in the OpenGL and Direct3D9 plug-ins.
Further consolidated the code in the video plug-ins.

for all the plugins implemented per pixel lighting, this will make games that uses lighting a lot nice. (just look at mario sunshine and compare :))
for dx9: implemented temporal anaglyph stereo: just grab your red-cyan glasses and enjoy.
stereo calibration: use stereo separation ( distance of the point from you are looking) and Focal Angle: the angle necessary to focus in one particular object.
this settings are different in every games as they use different depth ranges.
please for any regression and bug introduced by this commit.
if you ask why i did not implement stereo in dx11 and opengl the reason is one: they don't work right when i have more time will try to find a way to make them work.

Remove a member variable which I introduced in r5907 although it never actually got used. Restores binary compatibility (at least in that regard) to pre-r5907 video plugins, but breaks any binaries after that :P
Update FIFO watermark tightness recommendations. 1000 is quite a high value I guess, but some people seem to need it.

The code changes disable the usual pipeline flush for certain BP Writes that occur while the minimap is being drawn in Zelda: twilight princess. This significantly increases speed while in hyrule field. The way this is accomplished is described more in depth on page 42 of Xtreme's thread. Big thanks to Xtreme for doing a great job hosting that thread, and Kiesel-stein for initial work on the hack
Also, I used the resource editor in Visual studio to generate the GUI code for the DX11 plugin, and some code appeared to be removed, although the behavior of the GUI did not seem to change. Hopefully someone more experienced with resource files (forms?) can double check that no code was damaged
git-svn-id: https://dolphin-emu.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@6057 8ced0084-cf51-0410-be5f-012b33b47a6e
To change it, right click the affected game in the iso list, select Properties, and enter some constant for "Watermark tightness". Reasonable values range from 20 to 200.
FIFO seems unoverflowable on my computer no matter what I set this value to, so test whether tuning the value helps you ;P

- Eliminate the useless check for cpu modifications option from efb to ram as it must be enabled always
- use constant names in dx11 for buffer length calculation instead to simplify code reading
- implemented scaled efb copy in opengl, still bugy in some games, the option is not in the gui but will add it when it works perfect
- Change the depth calculation behavior:
if the game use z textures is exactly the same as before.
if the game do not use z texture calculate z values in the vertex shader. the advantage id this approach is that early z culling is applied,
improving fill rate. this mus speed up things, even with ssaa and msaa enabled.
please test for regression and enjoy.

replace efb to ram implementation by a hybrid approach.
explanation:
when copying from efb to texture, instead of make a copy to a texture or to the ram, copy the data to both, in hi quality to the texture and in native quality to the ram.
then instead of re-decoding the data from ram (very slow) use the data in the texture.
to improve this even more, test if the cpu has modified the data in the ram copy, if so, update the texture in memory and mark it as dynamic to avoid redundant work in future frames.
having all this implemented this is what is archived:
sms: full quality with scaled efb copies and fully functional goop cleaning :)
ztp: efb to texture speed with full map support.
nsmbw: this is a hard to emulate game, as it make a lot of shading and texture modification in cpu. it only have 35 fps in my system with new efb to ram but is 10 fps faster than normal efb to ram.
this game also show me another unimplemented feature, copy efb to multiple textures at the same time (is used to animate coins and other things in the world).
this is a remaining todo in efb to texture.
a lot of games should improve, so please test and let me know any regresion caused by this commit.
if everyone likes this the next step is, implement efb to multilpe textures and merge efb to ram and efb to texture.
then port to the other plugins.
enjoy.

efb scale :
auto fractional: the original scaling way, will grant a 1:1 pixel mapping between efb and screen giving the best image quality even in non standard resolutions
at the cost of glitches in some games.
auto integral: automatic but only int values for the scale, no glitches but only the correct pixel scaling when using some resolutions.
the rest are the fixed scales.
enjoy.

make native mips loading an option to prevent performance lost in game that not need this functionality.( thanks to dorian.fevrier for point the performance lost.)
added a patch from pierre@pirsoft.de to avoid vertex drops when index array is full in opengl implementation that do not support large index arrays
