There has been a lot of confusion about what the CPU clock override
section does among users, and looking at it… I’m not surprised! It
doesn’t directly state which CPU clock rate is being overridden!
This small change adjusts the language to clarify that the emulated CPU
is being adjusted.
Nowadays that Dolphin detects regions of discs properly and doesn't
force programs with unknown regions (such as homebrew) into running
under a certain region, the "Force Console as NTSC-J" option is
practically useless for making anything run correctly. Enabling it
is however an easy way to totally break many non-Japanese games.
The earlier code always tried to use TitleDatabase for getting
title names, but that didn't work for disc-based games, because
there was no way to get the maker ID.
Also clean up the way the system menu label is updated. We don't want
to access the NAND while emulation is running, and especially not
that many times per second on an unpredictable timing.
This updates the maker data to (mostly) mirror that of the Wiki:
https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=GameIDs
Only maker ids from that page are now included in Dolphin. This
means no homebrew/unofficial makers.
Also, separate multiple maker names with a slash
There was a race condition between the video thread and the host thread,
if corrections need to be made by VerifyValidity(). Briefly, the config
will contain invalid values. Instead, pause emulation first, which will
flush the video thread, update the config and correct it, then resume
emulation, after which the video thread will detect the config has
changed and act accordingly.
Change the repair logic to fix issues more aggressively by deleting bad
titles. This is necessary because of a bug in Dolphin's WAD boot code.
The UI code was updated to inform the user about titles that will be
deleted if they continue a repair, before deleting anything.
Old versions of Dolphin are so broken regarding NAND handling that
we need this to repair common issues and avoid issues with titles
like the System Menu or the Wii Shop.
This isn't an exhaustive check, but this will catch most issues
and offer to fix them automatically (if possible).
Some of my WiiWare games does not have a maker :
- Blue's Journey : EAFPJ8
- Magician Lord : EACPJ8
- The King of Fighters '94 : EAGPJ8
- The Last Ninja : C9XPGX
- World Games : C9ZPGX
const char[1] and wxString() can both be converted to multiple common
types, so this results in an ambiguous conditional expression
compilation error (C2445)
Ideally Common.h wouldn't be a header in the Common library, and instead be renamed to something else, like PlatformCompatibility.h or something, but even then, there's still some things in the header that don't really fall under that label
This moves the version strings out to their own version header that doesn't dump a bunch of other unrelated things into scope, like what Common.h was doing.
This also places them into the Common namespace, as opposed to letting them sit in the global namespace.
Since all queues are FIFO data structures, the name wasn't informative
as to why you'd use it over a normal queue. I originally thought it had
something to do with the hardware graphics FIFO.
This renames it using the common acronym SPSC, which stands for
single-producer single-consumer, and is most commonly used to talk about
lock-free data structures, both of which this is.
I'm not sure why this hasn't popped up as an error on the buildbots,
but the build fails on my new install of VS2017. The error is C2445:
result type of conditional expression is ambiguous: types 'wxString'
and 'const char [1]' can be converted to multiple common types
Settings that come from the SYSCONF are now included in Dolphin's
config system as part of the base layer. They are handled in a
special way compared to other settings to make sure they are only
loaded from and saved to the SYSCONF (to avoid different, possibly
contradicting sources of truth).
When recording during netplay, the stop message was only sent after you
have chosen a filename for the replay, causing the other player(s)
to freeze for a few seconds. This takes care of the annoyance.
For instance, we don't want to show TGC files that might be
inside the /files/ directory of a GameCube DirectoryBlob,
and we don't want to show the /sys/main.dol files for extra
partitions of Wii DirectoryBlobs.
Same as the previous commit, except I'm copying strings
in the other direction because the DolphinWX variants
of these strings could use some improvement.
