Help issue #762 (accurate blending issue)
If you want to shine, please put better GSVector code (AVX512 is 2 instruction :p)
In the DATE42 algo, first pass must find the primitive that write the
bad alpha value. If depth test is fail, alpha value won't be written therefore
you mustn't keep the primitive id.
In theory to ensure 100% correctness, depth would need to be fully executed
(currently depth write is disabled). However it requires to copy the depth buffer.
It is likely bad for the perf.
Issue reported on DBZInfWorld
Function pointer was mangled to avoid any collision. Nowadays all symbols
are hidden so no risk of collision.
Syntax is nicer beside it would allow to put back GLES3.2. I think it
supports most of the used extension.
glActiveTexture & glBlendColor are provided without symbol query.

side_effect_free: Calling ApplyVolume(Ext, Cores[1].ExtVol) is only useful for its return value, which is ignored.
Disable and overrides the following hacks at the config and dialog:
- Disable screensaver
- Safe fullscreen exit on escape
- save state in title
All of those are hacks which PCSX2 doesn't need anymore and therefore are just
confusing if enabled.
Note that we assume PCSX2 is synonym for PS2 mode in LilyPad, and while AFAIK it
is the case now, it might need a more fine grained override system.
All combobox text can now be seen in full without having to click on the
combobox.
The internal and custom resolution stuff has been moved into the Hardware
Mode Settings groupbox since it doesn't affect software mode.
The dialog has also been rearranged a bit.
shaders/GSdx.fx is now the default location and is no longer hardcoded.
The external shader and external shader config can now be selected. (The
OpenGL renderer already has this feature.)
Note: It is still possible to not use a config file, just use an invalid
value for shaderfx_conf.
Don't use D3DX compile from file and compile from resource functions -
use the compile from memory function instead. It does the same thing,
except you have to set things up yourself.
Benefits:
Allows external shaders to be split into a config file and a shader file
without hardcoding the config file name.
Less code.
Yes, I more or less used the same message as the dx11 one.
Don't use D3DX compile from file and compile from resource functions -

Less code.
OpenGL does not use the cdecl calling convention (which is the default
calling convention for GSdx on Windows). Since DebugOutputToFile is used
by OpenGL, it needs to use the same calling convention that OpenGL uses.
This fixes a debug build crash when the OpenGL renderers are used and
debug_opengl is nonzero in the ini.
A couple of useless members were removed too.
Also fix wnd initialization

Without this patch, if a user initiates a recording and then cancels at the GSdx
dialog, the audio was recording anyway, which is probably highly unexpected.
However, while probably highly unexpected, it could still be useful to record
only audio, but with this patch it's now impossible.
We can reconsider if it turns out that people are actually using this "feature",
though one might as well set the video setting to be very unobtrusive (very low
resolution/bitrate) such that it uses very little CPU.
This is the internal resolution which GSdx uses and recording at this resolution
is optimal, i.e. without any dumb scaling, with all relevant pixels and without
redundant pixels.
The resulting clip still doesn't have the correct aspect ratio set, but that's
just a property which can be set to the clip afterwards, which is where the DAR
becomes useful. Since it's usually anamorphic, when muxing later with the audio
use the DAR to set the playback aspect ratio.
gsdx changes:
Remove native resolution checkbox from GUI and rework associated code
Small changes to Windows and Linux GUI
Support 8x native resolution
Fix custom resolution width less than native width use case
Previously it was saving the display name to the config but trying to restore
according to the friendly name.
Now store and restore according to the "displayName" which is more unique than
"friendlyName" since it includes GUID[s], and handle it consistently as _bstr_t.
This fixes the following issues when custom resolution is selected.
- When the width is smaller than the native resolution width, the
texture cache targets are removed on every Vsync signal, causing a
black screen issue.
- The texture cache code needs a 1 returned for the custom resolution
upscale multiplier or there'll be some really funny graphical issues.
It also removes unnecessary GetConfig (which I think unconditionally
does a a file read on Windows) calls if the width was increased - the
upscale multiplier is already stored, and the custom resolution width
and height calls are now unnecessary.
Also fix some whitespace issues.
Before this patch, when recording Progressive (frame) mode, it recorded all
the frames correctly but set the clip's fps property to 25/29.97, so when
played back it played at half the speed (but was fine when played at double speed).
This patch does not affect the number of frames recorded per second, but rather
only sets the resulting clip fps property to the correct one (double than before).
Also fixes a bug that in a non-managed window in progressive mode, the title
displayed "200%" speed when it should have displayed 100% speed.
Fixes#832
upscale_multiplier function values have been changed to allocate native resolution and also move custom resolution to 9.
Remove the old native checkbox value and include Native in the combo box.
Internal GSDX functions have also been updated with this new update to the upscale_multiplier variable.
* Greatly reduce the number of clut read (factor 10x)
* Avoid to get wrong TEXA texture in the cache.
* Fix "jump depends on uninitialized variable" Valgrind warning.
Fix#748
I try my best to avoid any breakage of DX but please test it too.
* add lengthly comment to explain the format
* Likely reduce the number of shader permutation
* Avoid slow AEM (on GPU)
Expect regressions because TC needs some fixes

Thanks to tsunami2311, ssakash, gregory38 and whoever did the wiki for
helping with descriptions.
The hack description box messages were replaced by tooltips on Windows,
so there is no need for the first line in the description to refer to
the hack anymore.
3-state checkboxes were also converted to comboboxes, so remove any
references to checkbox states.
Reformat the descriptions so it looks okay on both Windows and Linux.
Could be better, but I'm out of ideas.
Also fix a few typos and missing punctuation.
Changes the three-state checkboxes to comboboxes.
Removes the hack description box.
Hides Alpha and Alpha Stencil when OpenGL is selected.
Rearranges the hacks dialog.
This moves the hardware, non-renderer dependent options to the top and
makes the renderer options visible only when it affects the current
renderer.
The texture filtering checkbox has been changed to a combobox and now
uses the same description as Linux does.
Also changes the Title to GSdx Settings.
The purpose is to avoid issue on MS-Intel driver without
a dedicated hack in the compilation.
Code doesn't use it so I suspect others implement to discard the
statement.
The CRC hack option is always used regardless of whether the HW Hack
checkbox is ticked. Move it to the main gsdx dialog and make it use the
same descriptions that are used in Linux.
And fix the accurate_blend_unit whitespace formatting.
It claimed to be 1.7.1 but it had a mixture from various
versions. It was hard to update as everything in the top directory
so I used upstream's way to organize files. I renamed include to
soundtouch since I did not want to #ifdef that for windows.
.
Wavfile.h is a private header so I used the private path instead of
moving the file over. This changed 3 files in the plugin folder.
according to some of the internal functions in GSDevice files, Anisotropic Filtering is only done when paltex is disabled. do the same on the GUI for user awareness.
Removes the checkbox of Anisotropic filtering from the GSDX plugin settings, the checkbox was usually used to enable & disable the AF which is not necessary since there is an option in the drop down list for disabling AF.
the internal function value of "AnisotropicFiltering" has been replaced with "MaxAnisotropy" for detection.
the detection uses the function getconfig("MaxAnisotropy", value) where value 0 means disabled and value is the default value when no value is set in the INI file.

Apparently lintian checks grammar too (most common ones).
The Wild Arms Offset hack can only be on or off. There is no third

Commit message edited by Gregory.
Comment below from Jonathan Li
On my system, /dev/input/event13 (evdev interface) and /dev/input/js0 (joystick interface) correspond to the DS3 on my system. User/group ownership are both root.
With /dev/input/event13 at 0640 and /dev/input/js0 at 0644 - SDL2 detects no pad, SDL1 detects a 19 button, 27 axis pad
With /dev/input/event13 at 0666 and /dev/input/js0 at 0644 - Both SDL1 and SDL2 report a 19 button, 4 axis pad.
SDL2 only uses the evdev interface, SDL1 uses the evdev interface but if that fails, it uses the joystick interface.
The purpose is to emulate correctly destination alpha factor
An alpha channel of 128 is 1.0 in the GS but only ~0.5 in the GPU
I think few draw call use destination alpha so impact on perf must remains small.
Actually it can partially be done with GL_ARB_shader_image_load_store
extension. However all drivers that support shader_image have
texture barrier too.
The idea is to use a floating texture to accumulate the data and
then do a final postprocessing pass to apply the modulo
v2:
* use bounding box to
* fix vertex corruption issue
* use negative number in shader which allow to use half float (+12
fps@4x)
Previous CopyRect function does a memcopy without conversion.
This function will allow to use different format for input/output. Just a
possibility for the future
Basically the code does the alpha multiplication in the shader therefore
the blend unit only does a pure addition. This way the multiplication is
accurate and accurate_blending doesn't requires a costly barrier.
This code also avoid variable duplication to make the code more separated.
Hopefully blending can be done in a separated function
It is preliminary work to support fast color clipping with HDR
v2: fix assertion compilation failure
v3: fix regression in not accurate mode
v3: Cs * As/Af is not an accumulation
Those cases don't need the Cd addition and were already optimized anyway
Fix a regression on GoW2
Do DATE algo selection before blending. This way we can detect bad
interaction.
Regroup all blending/colclip in a single block. Avoid to check abe &&
rt multiple times.
v2: only enable sw blending when abe is true
The updated medium level will run for all sprites. It helps sotc blooming effect and it remains
fast enough to be enabled by default (at least on 3D games)
The new high level will run for all sprites + color clipping
The idea is that sprites are often use for post-processing effect (ofc except 2D games)
Most of the time post-processing supports SW blending with a small speed penality. SW
blending is more accurate so it is better to use it.
Sourceforge was dead for more than a week therefore add the license
information. I could not find the original TGM source (dead link) so I'm not
even sure if this still applies or if the glsl was totally rewritten. None
of the glsl files have a copyright header so it's hard to tell.
Gain: 1% at 4x on SotC (it partially compensates recent additions)
When the color is constant and equal to 128, the MODULATE mode is
equivalent to the DECAL mode. It saves 5 instructions on the FS.
Accurate options do a better jobs. Technically it can still
be useful for old gpu/driver that doesn't support the GL4.5 extension.
On Windows, you can still rely on Dx
On linux, free driver support it (except Intel)
It fixes the bad light on Silent Hill with the SW renderer.

This commit trunc the sampled texture, the interpoled fragment color

The idea is to replace point by a 1 pixels sprite with the help of

Partially invalidate RT when there is a write in the middle of it (actually 2 pages below)
Code is not yet enabled because

2/ not sure of the impact of the code
3/ maybe it need a more generic version
Frame is always 32 bits but game can reuse it later as a 16 bits RT.
Fix half screen issue with Ricky Ponting Cricket
Unfortunately it triggers texture shuffle wrongly. I hope there is no
regression.
Fix depth issue.
First issue: RT and Depth are located at the same address.
=> solution, just lookup the depth (done for any games)
Second issue: Instead to draw a X,Y rectangle, they draw a 32 pix, 4096 pix
rectangle with a FBW of 1.
=> solution, don't bother just write the depth directly
Please someone add some CRC to enable the code
// GL42 interact very badly with sw blending. GL42 uses the primitiveID to find the primitive
// that write the bad alpha value. Sw blending will force the draw to run primitive by primitive
// (therefore primitiveID will be constant to 1)
It is mostly the texture shuffle effect which is now emulated correctly on openGL
They remain in the Dx level as speedhack in particular for
* Castlevania;
* GodOfWar;
* StarOcean3;
* ValkyrieProfile2;
* RadiataStories;
Remove old commented hack: Drakengard2, ArctheLad, ReZ
Separate hacks that are only enabled in aggressive mode
It might save a couple of fps
Add a define to test the perf if we keep only the blue channel. It brokes
the code in Prince Of Persia that use the Red/Green channel... Maybe the
speed hack :( Or find a way to replace all if with a lookup table
Note: it is only supported on OpenGL currently
Code unscale the texture to ease the conversion. Quality is awful (same as before)
but I'm not sure we can support an upscaled texture
Maybe the quality loss is due to the reduction without mipmap
Maybe the best solution will be to add an hack to extract the blue channel
(with texture swizzle), and uses a "full page/screen" spirte instead.
(it would be faster too)
Note: won't be compatible with MSAA (but gl doesn't support it anyway)
// In theory new textures contain invalidated data. Still in theory a new target
// must contains the content of the GS memory.
// In practice, TC will wrongly invalidate some RT. For example due to write on the alpha
// channel but colors is still valid. Unfortunately TC doesn't support the upload of data
// in target.
//
// Cleaning the code here will likely break several games. However it might reduce
// the noise in draw call debugging. It is the main reason to enable it on debug build.
//
// From a performance point of view, it might cost a little on big upscaling
// but normally few RT are miss so it must remain reasonable.
Game can directly uploads a background or the full image in
"CTRC" buffer. Previous code was a full black screen.
It will also avoid various black screen issue in gs dump.
hidden option: preload_frame_with_gs_data
Note: impact on upscaling was not tested and it's likely broken
Improve the rendering in MGS3 (even if the game is still broken
due to others TC issues)
// Typical bug (MGS3 blue cloud):
// 1/ RT used as 32 bits => alpha channel written
// 2/ RT used as 24 bits => no update of alpha channel
// 3/ Lookup of texture that used alpha channel as index, HasSharedBits will return false
// because of the previous draw call format
//
// Solution: consider the RT as 32 bits if the alpha was used in the past
"Regression" introduced in 8 bits RT support
The case appears when
1/ address of RT is the same as input texture
2/ input format is 8 bits
3/ previous lookup of RT was miss
It avoid various upscaling glitches on GS post-processing effect
// 1/ Palette is used to interpret the alpha channel of the RT as an index.
// Star Ocean 3 uses it to emulate a stencil buffer.
// 2/ Z formats are a bad idea to interpolate (discontinuties).
// 3/ 16 bits buffer is used to move data from a channel to another.
//
// I keep linear filtering for standard color even if I'm not sure that it is
// working correctly.
// Indeed, texture is reduced so you need to read all covered pixels (9 in 3x)
// to correctly interpolate the value. Linear interpolation is likely acceptable
// only in 2x scaling
//
// Src texture will still be bilinear interpolated so I'm really not sure
// that we need to do it here too.
//
// Future note: instead to do
// RT 2048x2048 -> T 1024x1024 -> RT 2048x2048
// We can maybe sample directly a bigger texture
// RT 2048x2048 -> T 2048x2048 -> RT 2048x2048
// Pro: better quality. Copy instead of StretchRect (must be faster)
// Cons: consume more memory
//
// In distant future: investigate to reuse the RT directly without any
// copy. Likely a speed boost and memory usage reduction.
It might help to fix a bit the color on a couple of games
accurate_fbmask = 1
Code uses GL4.5 extensions. So far it seems the effect is ony used a couple
of time and often in non-overlapping primitive. Speed impact will likely remain small
It seems to impacts lots of games that still have issue (VP2, MTG3, PoP)
The PSMT32 format is read a PSMT8. I think we need to convert it as PSMT8H (i.e.
unpack it to have only an alpha channel)
To clear a (W, H) RT/Depth, GS can only send a (W , H/2) primitive with
a Z (or RT) pointer in the middle of the buffer
Top-half will be cleared by the color (or the depth).
Bottom-half will be cleared by the depth (or the color).
Code isn't enabled yet but it was tested with success on GoW2.
GS doesn't supports texture shuffle/swizzle so it is emulated in a
complex way.
The idea is to read/write the 32 bits color format as a 16 bit format.
This way, RG (16 lsb bits) or BA (16 msb bits) can be read or written with
square texture that targets pixels 1-8 or pixels 8-16.
However shuffle is limited. For example you can copy the green channel
to either the alpha channel or another green channel.
Note: Partial masking of channel is not yet implemented
V2: improve logging
V3: better support of green channel in shader
V4: improve detection of destination (issue due to rounding)
Gow uses 24 bits buffer, so only color is updated but blending is configured as Cd
so it is a NOP
In this case, we don't lookup the target in the texture cache. It reduces the complexity
to handle depth which can be located at same address as RT
Note: please test DX renderer
Rework the renderer selection logic to reload the saved renderer after
it's been changed in the config panel and to properly detect whether a
renderer toggle has been requested.
If settings found in the registry, create ini, fill with settings and
then delete the settings stored in the registry.
If no settings found in registry, load from ini.
Changed the name of the Direct3D renderers so they would match the way
they are named in GSdx's Plugin Settings window. Also changed a printf
to say OpenCL instead of opencl.
Just use 1 in skip draw if you want to use it
openGL code will soon be fixed to support depth correctly (and I hope dx in the future)

-Last commit broke Snowblind games again
-Width now based on output circuit
-Try to use the smallest possible while being at least the size of the screen
The idea is to easily extract bad frame from gs dump and to compare them
with the sw renderer.
Here the summary of the options:
savet => dump all input textures
save => dump the render target
savez => dump the depth buffer
savef => dump the frame
The idea will be to replace StretchRect for standard case with a framebuffer
blit. Potentially it toggles less gl state.
Worth a test on Star Ocean 3 that uses a lots this function for stencil emulation
A user on http://obsrv.org had an issue with freezing, unfreezing than
dying on other players screen, but can continue playing anyway. This
comment didn't end up fixing the issue of becoming a ghost, but he
didn't freeze.
Please test it!
GS supports 3 formats for the output:
32 bits: normal case
=> no change
24 bits: like 32 bits but without alpha channel
=> mask alpha channel (ie don't write it anymore)
=> Always uses 1.0f as blending coefficient
16 bits: RGB5A1, emulated by a 32 bits openGL texture. I think it will be more correct to use
a real 16 bits GL texture. Unfortunately it would cost several (slow) target conversions.
Anyway as a current solution
=> apply a mask of 0xF8 on color when SW blending is used (improve Castlevania shadow)
unfortunately normal blending mode still uses the full range of colors!
This commit also corrects a couple of blending factor. 128/255 is equivalent to 1.0f in PS2, whereas GPU uses 1.0f. So the blending factor must be 255/128 instead of 2
Note: disable CRC hack and enable accurate_colclip to see Castlevania shadow ^^
(issue #380).
Note2: SW renderer is darker on Castlevania. I don't know why maybe linked to the 16 bits format poorly emulated
When the RT is used as an input texture, we need to rescale it.
Previous behavior was to always uses a linear filtering (more smooth).
Unfortunately it broke some games that expected an exact value like Star Ocean 3
This commit will disable the linear filtering in normal filtering mode (filter = 0
or filter = 2)
This way, shadow of Star Ocean 3 will appear correctly in upscaling (not
100% perfect but can't do better)
Note: SO3 only requires a nearest sampling of the alpha channel but
I don't know the behavior for others games.
The purpose of the code is to support alpha channel
of RT uses as an index for a palette texure.
I'm afraid that code will likely break pure palette texture. Only used
if paltex is enabled
It fixes missing shadow in Star Ocean 3 (issue #374) in Native resolution
with filter = 0 (no filtering) or = 2 (normal fitering)
Rendering explanation:
The game emulates a stencil buffer with the alpha channel
The alpha channel of the RT can contains a palette texture index (format 4HH)
The idea is to have a gradient of value in the palette (16/32/48/...).
This way you can implement a +16/-16 and even wrap the alpha value every time
you hit the pixel.
Bilinear filtering breaks the rendering because it interpolates between counts
so you doesn't have the exact count
Upscaling breaks the rendering because the RT is reused as an input texture. It means
that we need to scale it down which again create some interpolations.
Still not yet enabled by default
Potentially it can be optimized with the dot product but special care
need to be taken to ensure float accuracy.
Bonus: it could work on old GPU (aka DX9)
* Dump context before the increase of s_n
=> aligned with the global call number
* Don't print colclip not supported when it is optimized away
* dettach the input texture when it is useless
=> avoid to show a wrong texture in the debugger
This way it will allow to implement all blendings operartion in FS.
Of course it will be slow, but it would be nice for debug and quickly check
game error rendering.
Currently we're trying to infer the conversion shader based on the output format
It only works if the input data is RGBA8. It might not be true in the future
The idea was to merge them later with ffmpeg or other external tool
It kinds of work but current fps is around 2 !!! So not really usable
The speed issue is related to PNG.
So either the code to store pixels data must be optimized. Or maybe it misses some MT loves :)
Currently colclip uses 2 passes to wrap the output of blending unit
However some blending mode are only a plain copy (of 0 or Cs or Cd).
So no overflow of [0:255], no need to wrap it
Note: I saw those cases in GoW.
