The safest preset should ideally try to provide
the highest accuracy and stability when emulating the
PS2, allowing the manipulation of the MTVU hack could
just destroy both of these things, hence the following patch
force disables the hack on safest preset.
v2: allow all combinations of framelimiter and vsync options
v3:
* disable vsync when the user disable framelimiter with F4
* Use g_Conf->EmuOptions instead of EmuConfig
Fix CRC hacks on PAL version.
PAL version will no longer experience very high brightness/contrast
issues on stages in hw mode caused by an incorrect CRC hack.
Moved a CRC hack back to OpenGL mode only for the PAL version
because texture shuffling does not work properly on PAL games.
The scalar limit value was updated only during any turbo/slowmotion
toggle, let's also update it properly after any change in the emulation
settings.
This prevents the need of toggling from turbo/slowmotion to update to
your requested frame rate percentage.
Kung Fu Panda becomes stuck at an autosave warning screen since it
cannot detect button presses correctly. This fixes the issue, though
potentially it may negatively affect some other games (see #1831,
unfortunately no game titles weren't mentioned).
The issue was introduced in commit 3075ec2203Closes#1965.
Forgot to replace `IDC_TEXT` with `IDC_VALUE` macros, due to this the
text containing the name of the options was being updated with the
current value of the option instead of updating the text designated for
holding the values.
DBY isn't an offset to the frame memory but rather an offset to read
output circuit inside the frame memory, hence the top offset should also
be calculated for the total height of the frame memory. Fixes software
mode regression in Beyond Good and Evil.
Also handle cases when GetFrameRect() is called without any paramerer to
avoid an illegal value access violation on the DISP register.
Current behavior - The tilebar isn't updated when the user enters full screen mode and when the user returns back to windowed mode they have the older title bar values for a brief second, this sort of behavior is undesirable just in the cost of saving some overhead for updating title. (which is really negligent)
Hence reverting the code back to how it has been for the past 7 years (Yes, I did my research), I'm doing it only for the windows side at the moment as a code comment describes of some sort of Linux specific issue on wxWidgets side.
output 1 strip of 2 triangles instead of 2 strips of 1 triangle.
Potentially it would reduce the geometry shader overhead. And it
might avoid a middle line in sprite in some AMD GPU/driver/OS
bad combination
SDL doc:
"Mappings not belonging to the current platform or with no platform
field specified will be ignored (i.e. mappings for Linux will be ignored
in Windows, etc)."

Enables character outlines to partially work on Full CRC.
DX9 has a small issue where a small black line at the bottom shakes when outlines are enabled.
You can either use Aggressive crc or x,y offset to fix the issue.
Removed unnecessary crc hack that caused shadows on stationary objects (trees) to move on Direct3D in a weird
motion blur type way when the player moved slightly.
* Cast return value of IsEof() to bool. (Avoids int -> bool performance
warning error)
* Cast field and index to the required parameter type of AppendRawData.
The default 12 is rather low and won't suffice for most cases, updating
it to 20 to give some extra space for additional ISOs. Incrementing it
to an even higher value might not be so good as it consumes lots of
vertical space, not a nice idea for people with smaller screens.
The sprite geometry shader was still being used even if the sprites were
converted on the CPUs.
Convert all sprites using the GPU - the fix isn't ideal, but it'll
likely have to do unless someone feels like porting over more of the
OpenGL changes to the D3D11 renderer.
Closes#1921.
Class member variables are initialised in order of declaration in the
class definition. Move native_buffer to the top of the class definition
to avoid initialising m_width and m_height to random values.
Move the custom resolution scaling code to a separate subroutine and
allow future RT buffer resize calls when the buffer size isn't enough.
(Example: when a game's CRTC/Framebuffer size changes. The older code
didn't consider such cases)
Added a more robust buffer size calculation mechanism for custom
resolutions. Improves performance in higher resolutions for games
which don't need a big buffer. There's a great boost in performance
at GS limited scenarios.
I don't even feel there's a need for the large framebuffer option right
now, For future - I plan on making the large framebuffer enabled version
as the default as the overhead is there only at situations when it's
necessary. Until then keeping the original code just to be on the safe
side in case any issue pops up.
