* Fixed several obscure deadlock issues.
* Savestate actions block; such that only one load or save is permitted at a time.
* Savestates now work through temp files, so that the existing file is not corrupted in case errors occur.
* Exiting the emu while a savestate is saving will still save the state before completely quitting.
* Plugin init errors are handled more gracefully.
Developer Notes:
* Added some event diagnostic trace logging stuff.
* More preliminary work on memorycards -- moved them to their own dialog box and started implementing things, but still a lot of work to do before it's ready for use.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2936 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Added versioning info to savestates! (along with some other bugfixes)
* Simplified the Boot and System menus -- removed the old Skip BIOS hack and replaced it with the new BOOT2 injection method (which is considered hack-free at this time).
* Removed lots of UI deadlock gotchas.
* Some new confirmation dialogs and better error handling.
* Implemented an exclusive SysExecutor thread, which serves the purpose of executing system/VM commands and events in uninterrupted order (including suspend, resume, savestates, etc.)
* ... and probably broke linux!

Also
* Tons of small UI bugfixes and cosmetic improvements, mostly to startup, first-time running, and resetting options.
* Added a third startup option for specifying a custom "default location" for PCSX2 files, in addition to user docs and CWD.
Devs:
* Implemented some more += operators for adding wxWidgets objects to sizers (pxStretchSpacer mainly).
* Preliminary re-implementation of memory cards panels -- still non-functional, so it's disabled.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2671 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Hopeful fix for GSwindow getting stuck maximized when pcsx2 crashes when fullcreen.
* Altered RestoreDefaults behaior for EE/IOP and VU CPU panels.
* CDVD Verbose Reads toggle takes effect immediately now.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2506 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Implemented GS window hiding on suspend (option was there, but not tied in)
* Added Frameskipping options
* Added option for disabling all GS output, for benchmarking EEcore stuffs.

newVif:
* Bugfix to HashBucket::find() cuts microprogram caches misses in half.
* Dynarec version now uses alternating XMM registers for unmasked unpacks (very minor speedup, ~1%).
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2397 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Implemented TlsVariable, a nifty alternative to __threadlocal, suitable for archaic operating systems that don't have native TLS support (namely Mac OS/X).
* Added a forced reference to TLS in AppInit so that TLS is sure to be available to DLLs (otherwise windows doesn't init TLS by default).
* Disabled TLS support in the x86emitter by default, since it's looking increasingly like we won't find a use for multithreading PS2 sub-components (can be re-enabled later if spontaneous brilliance at a later date proves me wrong).
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2396 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Fixed a savestate loading bug, when loading states made with different sets/versions of plugins.
DevNote:
* Moved some old PS2E types to PS2Edefs, since the new v2 plugin API won't use them (freezeData, keyEvent).

PCSX2: attempt at fixing what appears to be a belated thread affinity issue during the cpuspeed detect.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2363 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Added feature to align call targets for EErec functions and blocks on P4's and AMDs, and pack them on Core2/i7's.
* Fixed some svn:native props.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2347 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Configuration panels are all modal-less now, so that you can open the config panel and leave it open while running games.
* Handful of thread sync improvements.
* Fixed on-the-fly interpreter/recompiler configuration.
* Fixed plugin hotswapping (mostly works, but still a little funny at times)
* All new assertion dialogs and popup message handlers.
* RecentIsoList defaults to 12 instead of 6
Dev Notes:
* I had to create a new set of assertion functions called pxAssume*. Originally I hoped to avoid that complexity, and just use a single one-assert-fits-all case, but turned out blanketly using __assume() for all assertion cases wasn't reliable.
* wxGuiTools: Replaced the operator, with operator& -- the latter has proper order of precedence, the former required () to scope correctly. >_<
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2339 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Removed some hacks from cpuDetectInit's use of cpuId.
* Improved assertion checking for thread affinity.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2327 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Better error handling for when sVU fails allocating memory at a specific location (should fail less).
* Partial support for detecting and handling non-SSE2 machines with some grace.
* Improved sVU's allocation chances with a second try at another randomish address (and removed alloc fail spam from the console -- only logs on complete fail now).
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2321 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Aspect ratio and mouse cursor hiding features should be mostly functional.
* Mouse cursor by default hides after 1.75 seconds of inactivity, when in the area of the GS window. Can be forced to always hidden in the control panel. Unlike the liilypad hack, this one won't hide the mouse in the main window or title bars. (and it should work for Linux too!!)
* GS window position and size should be remembered between sessions.
Console Logger window z-order is now "bound" to the main window. When clicking either window to bring it to focus, the other window follows (implemented for Win32 only, since wxWidgets doesn't have a cross-platform implementation of the necessary SetWindowPos call).
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2275 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* ConsoleLogger Optimization: Improved performance considerably for when the log gets spammed by EEcore or MTGS threads.
DevNotes:
* Added a new pxYieldToMain() method (currently implemented in Win32 only). It provides a smart way to allow passive-task worker threads to yield time to the Main Thread when important messages are pending (keyboard or mouse clicks, primarily). It also replaces the wxGetApp().Ping() stuff, which never worked anyway due to wxCommandEvents having a higher priority than native system messages.

Cleaned up the operator overloads some more, and added operator, (yes, comma) to solve some ambiguity problems when trying to apply multiple attributes to a single window.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2252 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Added bold text to indicate default options on CPU settings panels.
* Hitting 'Restore Defaults' activates the Apply button.
* Fixed some missing confirmation dialog text.
* More conversions of interface code to use the new += and | operators.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2251 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Dev notes:
* Renamed MtgsthreadObject to SysMtgsThread (matches naming pattern of other thread classes).
* Added accessors for GetMtgs() and GetCoreThread() [rationale for them documented in source comments]
* Removed wxHelpers namespace since we're using px name prefix instead for most stuff.
