All games use mailbox/triple buffering. Except when you enable sync to
host refresh, in which case FIFO/double buffering is used.
This means vsync enabled will ever tear, but at the same time, never
drop to 30fps on a missed frame due to frame rate differences.
To have the "best of both worlds", you should enable vsync and sync to
host refresh. Previously, this resulted in additional input lag, since
the host vsync would drive the EE frame timing. Now, this behaviour is
disabled by default, unless you enable "Use Host VSync Timing".
Renames Disable Depth Emulation to Disable Depth Conversion as it is both more correct to what it does and less likely for a user to think it is free performance.
- Adding translation support for all the substrings related to the single/multiframe GS Dump message.
- Correcting the None option in the Deinterlacing settings according to what was talked about in Crowdin, unified that string with the Big Picture mode.
- Minor English text fixes reported in Crowdin.
Second attempt at doing this PR after the former, https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/pull/10253 , was mangled by bad squashing and rebasing.
- Adding the actual corrections from #8048 that were not added by #8119.
- Fixing typos and missing ending periods.
- Unifying the writing of certain terms:
- Memory Card uppercased following Sony's writing (taken from PS2 manual).
- gamefixes/game fixes -> game fixes
- fast forward/fastforward/fast-forward -> fast-forward (taken from Oxford)
- slowmotion/slow motion/slow-motion -> slow-motion (following the same convention as before, as I could not find this in Oxford's)
- framebuffer/frame buffer -> framebuffer
- Xbox name properly uppercased (for Controller settings)
- Correcting RA's Rich Presence to separate it from Discord's Rich Presence (after discussions in the Translations channel).
- Unification of option names in the option area and the hint area.
- Adding a fix for the (currently broken) Stretch Height/Vertical Stretch tooltip.
Eventually hopefully we can make this the default, but it breaks too
much at the moment.
Fixes missing/corrupted textures in True Crime: New York City.
Unfortunately it's too risky to enable by default all the time. So,
we'll make it a hw fix, and hopefully one day can make it default on.
Also makes save states readback the TC as well.
