Reduce disk space. Easy to share.
It would be nice to port the code to Windows.
libzma code was taken from https://git.tukaani.org/xz.git
Note: only short dumps are supported so far. Big dump will freeze the interface during the compression.
Or will suck all the RAM.
Note2: a multithreaded encoder would badly impact the compression ratio
Thanks to Turtleli for all review comments
Isolate all the hacks into a separate subroutine and properly document about them, should make it easier for people to understand the display rectangle setup code, the hacks were totally messing up the readability of the function earlier.
Previously, the auto output circuit selection of the GSdx wasn't good, it simply defaulted to the second output circuit even when the first output circuit is also enabled. The new algorithm for auto selecting returns the merged rectangle dimensions when both of the output circuits are enabled and if the condition for merge is not satisfied then it returns the bigger output circuit.
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.
Passes the merged output circuit as the base size for texture cache scaling code. Helps fixing scaling issues where games use both of the output circuits for rendering.
Future Note: Alter the behavior of IsEnabled() check always preferring the second output circuit for some weird reason. I plan on changing it to a better auto-output circuit selection mechanism but that could probably be done some time in the future.
* 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?
It impacts all renderers. It ought to fix issue in GTA radiosity,
Shadows in Jak series. (note shadows will suck in upscaling)
Implementation is really brutal. Expect a massive slow down, but at least we can test the effect
easily.
Normally perf impact will remain reasonable if the game doesn't use a Read-Write effect
Performances number are welcomes (my guess is really awful in HW mode, slow in SW mode).
You can enable it with "UserHacks_AutoFlush = 1"
Fix motocross mania missing texture. Close#1319
As far as I understand, transfer is initialized in DIR. But the real
write only occured later so the blit buffer could have been overwritten
by a new value.
BLIT 0 13700
TREG 40 40
DIR 0 0
BLIT 0 13f00 <=== the bad guy
Write! ... => 0x3f00 W:1 F:C_32 (DIR 00), dPos(0 0) size(64 64)
v2: set a value in m_tr.m_blit for load state
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
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)
Conflicts:
plugins/GSdx/GSState.cpp
plugins/GSdx/GSState.h
Old way various check boxes to configure the plugin
New way an unified drop down list
* Level 0 (dev only) => disable (mostly) all hacks and auto skip depth.
* Level 1 (dev only ) => enable oi/oo/cu hacks, others remains disabled
* Level 2 (GL) => enable most hacks except a couple of one that were fixed on openGL (speed impact)
* Level 3 (DX) => enable all hacks
* Level 4 => enable also aggresive CRC
Note: windows gui must be updated, and it will be nice to create a global tooltip
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
0: don't dump input texture
1: dump input texture
Now, you can do a first pass with only RT. When you find the wrong call, you can redump the input texture of the bad draw.
1/ initReadFifo will be first called on the GS thread
(openGL can only be done on the GS thread)
2/ readFifo will be called on the EE thread. It is not safe too access eeMem from GS
because of memory is virtual
Fix "recent" regression (crash) on Kingdom heart and others game too.
v2: add a len check on GSState::InitReadFIFO
- changed the KH2 fix in GetTextureMinMax to my taste, should give the same results, when the used texture rect is to the left/above the clamped area, it returns [min, min+1], and [max-1, max] for right/below
- m_mem.m_clut.Read32 was returned to its original place from GetAlphaMinMax
- UserHacks_WildHack was moved up to GSState, special UV handlers are only used when this setting is active
- updated xbyak to the latest available (avx2 seems incomplete, the 256-bit promoted old instructions are missing)
- changed vtune's include path to the 2013 edition
Some other not yet commited changes from a year ago:
- WriteImageX overflow crash-fix
- moved colclamp after dithering (sw mode), it makes more sense, no visible changes noticed
- Gif_Tag::analyzeTag(), there was a conditional I didn't like, split the loop into two parts

- Added "Aggressive-CRC" checkbox at the HW hacks section of the config dialog.
- The following hacks are now activated only in aggressive mode:
- God of War 2: disable water effect/lines, disable global haze.
- FFX, FFX2, SSX3 (the full crc hack from r5214).
- Shadow of the Colossus: disable (over)bloom.
- Reverted the Valkyrie Profile 2 hack to pre- r5214.
- Some CRC fixes by comments on r5214.
- Regression fix of dynamic crc hack (INITIAL_MODE = 0 didn't compile)

Another refinement to the Wild Arms hack by KrossX.
The hack now only applies to one kind of geometry (sent using the unpacked UV handler).
This works nicer in Wild Arms as it fixes "jumpy" characters.
