* VIF MSCAL instructions wait on VU T-Bit stop
Fixes:
The Sims
Spiderman 3
Sharks Tale
Maybe some bits of Over the Hedge
* Removed Spiderman 3 patches
* Fix VIF DMA resuming when stalled on tag
* Remove warning which doesn't really need to be there anymore
Don't interrupt if compare/overflow flag is already set
Removed patches for Harry Potter Prisoner of Azkeban and Chamber of Secrets as they should no longer be required.
Note - Some harry potter games still have the EE Timing Fix which may also not be required
Updates the d3d device and swapchain creation to more modern methods.
- Use CreateDXGIFactory2 to create the factory and store in member
- Use CreateSwapChainForHwnd
- Add messages for failures to the console
- Some general formatting improvements
Convert sprites on the cpu instead of the gpu when applicable. Port from
Opengl.
Lines: GPU conversion.
Triangles: CPU conversion.
Disable Geometry shader when conversion is done on the cpu.
v1 It won't allow users to try to input a value that isn't supported
osd (size, timeout, max), tc offsets (x, y), rendering threads.
v2 Use const if applicable for variables throughout
GSSettingsDlg.cpp. Will cleanup some warnings.
DMC3, Onimusha 3 rely on this behavior.
They do fullscreen rectangle with scissor, then shift by 8 pixels, not done with recursion.
So we check if it's a TS effect by checking the scissor value.
Credits to Kojin for figuring out the issue.
Overhauls the previous batch of changes and adds the latest changes. Changes include:
- Unification of terminology between all the strings.
- Changing quotation marks with the ones used in Spanish.
- Removal of some GT-like translations.
- Unification of parenthesis symbols.
- Removal of title uppercasing (Spanish language doesn't use that many uppercased words).
- Checked fuzzy entries.
Hack is obsolete/replaced with accurate date/date_one option/code.
There's pretty much no usecase for it remaining other than using it as
an alternative to skipdraw which removes/breaks transparency effects.
In GSRendererHW, reuse the method CanUseSwSpriteRender for OI_JakGames.
As in current master, 16x16 "flat" sprite draws are performed via CPU: those are palette rendering better emulated with the SwSpriteRender.
Jak games do also many 64x64 "flat" draws, but mostly for render to texture effects that are already correctly emulated in the TC, so those draws are not done via CPU (as on the contrary happens for DBZ BT games).
Improve texture cache Source objects invalidation logic taking into account overlapping with current draw.
Fixes eyes rendering for the Major in Jak 1.
Use SwSpriteRender to render sprites, which:
- fixes kaioken effect,
- fixes character outlines when upscaling,
- reduces frametime by up to 3ms with big upscaling factors.
