It stores both the konst selection value for alpha and color channels (for two tev stages per ksel), and half of a swap table row (there are 4 total swap tables, which can be used for swizzling the rasterized color and the texture color, and indices selecting which tables to use are stored per tev stage in the alpha combiner). Since these are indexed very differently, the old code was hard to follow.
The masking was incorrect. This affects the main menu of The Last Avatar, though that menu also relies on copy filter functionality that is not correctly handled in the software renderer so the difference is not obvious; that game shuffles textures across all indices for some reason, so this issue would presumably result in subtle flickering.
Adds a pass to process driver deficiencies between UID caching and use, allowing a full view of the whole pipeline, since some bugs/workarounds involve interactions between blend modes and the pixel shader
I think this is a relic of D3D9. D3D11 and D3D12 seem to work fine without it. Plus, ViewportCorrectionMatrix just didn't work correctly (at least with the viewports being generated by the new scissor code).
These aren't particularly useful, and make the code a bit more confusing. If for some reason someone wants to test what happens when these functions are disabled, it's easier to just edit the code that implements them. They aren't exposed in the UI, so one would need to restart Dolphin to do it anyways.
This message would be logged, usually multiple times, for EVERY. SINGLE. PIXEL. That's pretty much useless and just makes the log unreadable. Plus, the current support (which acts as RGB8) is close enough that for end-user purposes, it's fine. I don't think the hardware backends support RGB565_Z16 and its antialiasing functionality correctly either, but they don't have similar logspam.
It doesn't make sense for alpha to add the bias ONLY when dividing by 2, while color doesn't apply the bias for divide by 2 only; hardware testing indicates that alpha should have the bias.
This fixes the menus in Mario Kart Wii (https://bugs.dolphin-emu.org/issues/11909) but reintroduces the white rectangle in Fortune Street.
This reverts commit 5aaa5141ed (and several other matching changes elsewhere).
The compiler was loudly announcing each and every branch Tev was not checking in
a switch statement, but Tev has learned it's lesson and will produce that
warning no more.
Currently the logic for addressing the individual TexUnits is splattered all
across dolphin's codebase, this commit attempts to consolidate it all into a
single place and formalise it using our new TexUnitAddress struct.
