Enhance the skipdraw hack by allowing skipdraw to skip a range of draw
calls.
For example: When the broken effects are at frames 90-100, the default
skipdraw always skips 0-100, possibly skipping several functioning
effects as well. By enhancing the skipdraw feature, it is now possible
to skip just frames 90-100.
For the example given above set the first box to 90 and the second box
to 100 to skip frames 90-100.

Automatic mipmapping: Harry Potter (Chamber Of Secrets,
Prisoner of Azkaban, Order Of The Phoenix), The Incredible Hulk:
Ultimate Destruction.
Add some missing crc ids for GT4 demo discs.
Purge Hw hack fixes for Spyro New Beginning and Eternal Night that fixed
HUD and menu display.
They will be replaced with EE patches in GameDB that work for both
software and hardware mode. A much better alternative and less GSdx
hacks.
Revert merge of Spyro Eternal Night / New Beginning hw hack.
Update Spyro New Beginning hack - fixes menu/hud flicker in HW mode.
SW mode still has issues with the menu/hud elements.
Improve #1490
Texture Shuffle changes:
Always Enable Texture shuffle on D3D10/11.
Previously Texture shuffle was enabled if CRC hack
level was below Full, this was kinda not good since
D3D also relies on CRC hacks on Full so you could either
stick with texture shuffle or crc hacks.
Texture shuffle is not supported on D3D9, however we can do a partial
port where instead of vertical lines with the effect we get the effect
on the entire screen. Better than nothing I suppose.
Ported some of the code from OpenGL to D3D
( just a copy - paste job :) ),
part of the code misses a dedicated shader but we can still
use it to fix various issues on many games.
List of affected games tested so far:
The Godfather, Final Fight Streetwise, The Suffering Ties that Bind,
Urban Chaos have their vertical lines issues fixed
(highly possible for other games as well), MGS and Stolen see an improvement
but they are still broken without crc hacks. Other games that suffered
similar issues are probably affected as well.
Channel Shuffle changes:
Update Channel Shuffle detection. A lot of games should see an improvement,
MGS, Urban Chaos, Stolen have their top left corner issues resolved.
Other games should be affected as well that use similar logic.
They still miss a shader so some effects are still broken/show glitches
but it's a nice improvement for D3D users.
Shared changes:
Texture Shuffle and Channel shuffle have been moved to their
own dedicated functions. Should make things a bit cleaner.
Move part of the code for Texture Shuffle to GSRendererHW to be shared
across all HW renderers, should aboid copy paste/duplicate code.
Merge identical code for Spyro Games in to one to avoid duplicate code.
Rename hacks name for Jak series from OO_Jak to OO_JakGames since there
are multiple games added.
Previously, the calculation for the size of data to be loaded was done
based on the rendering target buffer size and scaling multiplier, which
was totally wrong. This led to different resolutions having different
load sizes while the size of the real GS memory is common regardless of
the scaling variancies.
Hence use the default rendering target buffer size for the load size
independent of the scaling values. I've also removed a buffer height saturation
code which seemed unreliable.
Note: The accurate version of the code can be enabled using the macro
provided in config.h (which is more intensive on resources), the current
code goes along with the approach of maintaining a decent performance
level along with a formidable accuracy.
Previously if HW hacks were enabled Merge Sprite was active(if checked) on
native resolution even if the GUI option was disabled, which in result
caused glitches in games on native resolution.
This should address that issue.
Adds automatic HW mipmapping support.
It relies on CRC ids so if a game does
not have their CRC id but needs mipmapping
it will not work until the id is added.
Add GUI menu and tooltip for Automatic mipmap
"Automatic (Default)"
This option will be default option from now on.
Rename "Very Slow" text option to "Slow" for full mipmap
as it caused the text not to fit properly in the menu.
Credits also go to @RedPanda4552 and @ssakash for helping
with the code.
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.
Adds merge sprite hack to GSDx hacks dialog
And ports merge sprite hack to Direct3D renderers.
Special thanks to my keyboards Ctrl, c and v buttons for all their hard
work in porting this hack.
Ports the "Unscale Point and Line" hack to the Direct3D11 Hardware renderer.
And enables the "Unscale Point and Line" hack for Custom Resolutions with Direct3D11 and OpenGL.
If OpenGL software is the saved ini renderer and F9 is pressed to toggle
to the hardware renderer, depth emulation will be disabled. This fixes
that issue.
Removes Alpine Racer 3 hack. Issue has been resolved.
Moves NanoBreaker hack. Issue has been resolved for OpenGL and hack has
been moved to DX only.
Moves Tri-Ace games hacks. Hacks are also necessary for OpenGL with "Partial" CRC Hack Level to prevent massive slowdown.
Move Tales Of Legendia hack back as it's also necessary for OpenGL with "Partial" CRC Hack Level to prevent graphical issues.

Added PAL and NTSC-U CRC's for Ar tonelico II.
Some PSX games seem to store image data of the drawing results in an undeterminate area out of range from the current context buffer. At such cases, calculate the height of both the frame memory rectangles combined.
What happens on "Crash bash" -
* At first draw, scissoring is limited to SCAY0- 0 & SCAY1- 255
* At second draw, scissoring is limited to SCAY0- 255 & SCAY0-511
Previously, we limited the height to the value of one single output texture, so instead of that let's calculate the total height of both the two buffers combined to prevent such issues.
Previously, the height of the frame offset was also considered for the total height of the texture which was obviously wrong as the portion before the offset value isn't part of the frame memory.
The main FindMinMax methods is perf critical so instead I created a separate function
to ensure the constness of the depth
Fix letter regression on Xenosaga3
* Explicitly cast w_pages and h_pages into uint32.
* Prevent signed/unsigned comparison by converting lod into unsigned integer, honestly how coud a mipmapping level be negative?
mipmap option 3. Actually maybe a separate tri-linear option will be better
m_mipmap == 2 => use manual PS2 trilinear/mipmap
Otherwise
m_filter == 3 => always use full automatic trilinear interpolation
m_filter == 4 => use automatic trilinear interpolation when PS2 uses mipmap
m_filter == 5 => like 4 but force bilinear interpolation inside layer
It must work fine without it now.
From the google code comments:
It would be nice to test those games
* Ar Tonelico 2 (line in sprite regression?)
* breath of fire dragon quarter (overlayed user interface in the game)
v2: update Dx code to use the good format
* As sw renderer, don't bother to bypass it when it is ATST_ALWAYS
* Don't update the ATE register value
=> It is a really bad idea. Next draw call will be wrong if TEST register isn't written.
The TryAlphaTest context could have been updated
