Very useful to compare performance between two builds, check the impact of
a configuration option, etc. FPS log is stored in User/Logs/fps.txt and is
reset each time you launch a game. Only enabled if you check the "Log FPS
to file" option in your graphics settings.
Could be improved a bit: currently logs only every 1s (so you can't really
see small variations), maybe output more infos to the fps.txt like
average/stddev (but Excel/Libreoffice/Google Docs can compute that easily
too).
the intent is to replace the haphazard scheduling and finger-crossing associated with saving/loading with the correct and minimal necessary wait for each thread to reach a known safe location before commencing the savestate operation, and for any already-paused components to not need to be resumed to do so.
This allows users to easily check whether their Wii dump is corrupted or not
using the Dolphin properties window. Right click on a game, Properties,
Filesystem tab, then right click on the game partition and select "Check
partition integrity".
This may have some false negatives due to the unused clusters heuristic (see
the comment in VolumeWiiCrypted.cpp). False positives are unlikely.
This adds an "Analyzer" tab to the fifoplayer dialog which allows to conveniently browse through all register pokes that are being sent by the game each frame.
There's also a search function, but it doesn't work all that well for anything but simple searches at the moment. However, I'm merging this anyway since I'm not sure if I'm going to finish this.
Note that due to recent fifo changes, it's not yet possible to run fifoplayer in dual-core mode.
please test for regressions, speed and for other issues fixed, as a example, the black color in water splash in super mario galaxy are fixed with this rev.
please as soon as yo find a bug let me know.
to marcosvitali.
Added an external exception check when the CPU writes to the FIFO. This allows
the CPU time to service FIFO overflows. Fixes random hangs caused by FIFO
overflows and desyncs like in "The Last Story" and "Battalion Wars 2". Thanks
to marcosvitali for the research.
Added some code to unlink invalidated blocks so that the recompiled block can be
linked (speed-up).
This release still fixed the hangs produced by fifo overflow without sacrifice
performance. For example you can test Tutorial moves at the beginning of The last history now
is fluid 30/60.
Fixed possibles random hangs in DC mode.
Fixed hangs in DC mode in (Simpsons, Monkey Island, Pokemon XD, etc)
Implemented accurate management of Pixel Engine Interrupts. Now the GPU loop
is stopped when a PE Interrupt needs to be managed and resumed when Pixel Engine
finish.
Fixed Metroid Prime 3 and 2 desync. And other games with desync because of
FIFO Reset. That happens because FIFO_RW_DISTANCE_HI must be written first, for checking
fifo.CPReadWriteDistance == 0, so some fifo resets was not managed in the right
way.
Fixed Super Monkey Ball in some cases when the game write the
WriteReadDistance need to be safe like the SafeCPRead.
Improved the CheckException for the GatherPipe writes in JIT, now only the
External Exceptions are processed.
Fixed definitely Pokemon XD in dual core mode. This game is doing something
not allowed. It attach to CPU the same fifo attached to the GPU in multibuffer
mode. I added a check to prevent overwrite the GPU FIFO with the CPU FIFO. If
the game do that on breakpoint the solution can fail.
Fixed ReadWriteDistance calc when CPRead > CPWrite.
Added Token and Finish cause to GP Jit checking.
Additional cleanup in CommandProcessor.

(Just applied to FrameTools.cpp for now)
Allows one to properly restart Pokémon by hitting play :P
Ignore non-ASCII strings passed to DisplayMessage(). These strings would end up going to renderer display and statusbar/titlebar, which can't handle them properly.
Commit 9ddb67d4a9 seems to have
introduced a segfault on Mac. The issue is that it this change casts
wxConvCurrent (which is a wxMBConvLibc) to a wxCSConv. This is an
unsafe cast because wxCSConv has member variables, but wxMBConvLibc
does not.
In LogWindow.cpp, the constructor for m_SJISConv is dereferencing one
of those member variables, which is a dereference of uninitialized
memory!
This CL reverts to the older (non-crashing) constructor, but keeps the
behavior the same.
Fixed the JIT cache, invalidating one instruction length at a time.
Fixed a bug where the JIT cache did not get invalidated when stepping.
Disabled fused instructions in the debugger.
return std::strings instead of filling a buffer,
move gci filename generation to a function inside gcmemcard instead of the gui code
change all functions that do not modify the object to const

Also re - implement the emulation issues column that was reverted, make it a bit bigger since sentences need more words and delete the issues portion of the emustate tooltip since it is unnecessary now.
The "Notes" column is gone and in it's place an "Emulation Notes" column is placed (it contains the emulationissues lines from the game inis). Notes that contain useful info about the game can be seen with just a glance this way.
Fixes issue 5043.
- Fixes all (I hope) BBox-related unknown pointer crashes.
- Fixes wrong BBox values with Frame Skip on (and the resulting unknown pointer crashes).
- Fixes a small oversight on the change I made to the ISO Properties dialog.
This should also be a (very very little) bit faster than the previous version.
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.
