* 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 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.
Much faster for small batch that write the alpha value. Code can
be enabled with accurate_date option.
Here a summary of all DATE possibilities:
1/ no overlap of primitive
=> texture barrier (pro no setup of stencil and single draw)
2/ alpha written
=> small batch => texture barrier (primitive by primitive). Done in N-primitive draw calls.
(based on GL_ARB_texture_barrier)
=> bigger batch => compute the first good primitive, slow but only 2 draw calls.
(based on GL_ARB_shader_image_load_store)
=> Otherwise there is the UserHacks_AlphaStencil but it is a hack!
3/ alpha written
=> full setup of stencil ( 2 draw calls)
No barrier => draw all primitives
Barrier but without overlap => draw all primitives
Barrier with overlap => draw primitive by primitve
It will ease the implementation of accurate blending and why not date too
Group opengl calls into a nice name.
Apitrace shows them in a tree format that support folding. Previously it
was a long flat list (10K-40K of lines by frame)
I align the call number with the internal s_n variable. This way it is
easy to map GSdx dump output with the GL debugger :)
If there is no overlap, it is allowed to directly read from the render target.
On SotC testcase with 6x scaling: 30fps -> 40fps
Note: it requires GL_ARB_texture_barrier extension so be sure to have a recent driver
Note2: it requires a lots of testing too
Open question: in case of complex date (written alpha)
Will it be faster to split the draw call into multiple call with no
primitive overlap
DATE is implemented in 2 ways.
1/ with stencil
2/ purely in FS (sw)
I kept method 1 to reduce the work on method 2. It sucks for performance.
So it would be either 1 or 2.
Note: DATE has a big impact on higher upscaling
Note2: you can disable the 2nd method with this configuration parameter
override_GL_ARB_shader_image_load_store = 0
UserHacks_UnscaleSprite = 1 will unscale flat sprites
UserHacks_UnscaleSprite = 2 will unscale all sprites (don't work well so far)
The idea of the hack is to redo the interpolation of texture coordinate
based on the non-upscaled pixel position.
It avoids various glitches but sprites aren't upscaled anymore (so no
more anti-aliasing, potentially a coefficient can be added).
It is replacement of the previous hack (UserHacks_stretch_sprite). Don't enable both in the same time!
The idea of the hack is to move the sprite to the pixel boundary. It
avoids most of rounding issue. It also rescales verticaly the sprite (avoid horizontal line on ace combat).
I don't like this rescaling maybe we can limit it to only 1 pixels.
On my limited testcase, results are much better with any upscaling factor.
I still have a bad line in Kingdom heart. If you have issue with others
game please provide us a GS dump.
2x upscaling is pixel perfects. Bigger upscaling is better but not yet perfect
Feedbacks are welcomes (note it doesn't solve all upscaling issue, only wrong texture sampling)
For the history:
If you have a texture of [0;16[ texels and draws a primitive [0;16[
The formulae to sample last pixels of texture is
0.5 + (16*s-1)/(16*s) * 16
Native (s==1): 15.5 (good)
2x (s==2): 16 (bad, outside of the texture)
4x (s==4): 16.25 (bad, really outside of the texure))
* Only a single VAO
=> Format is set once
=> Only a single bind at startup
=> GSVertexBufferStateOGL is nearly useless
=> barely faster but better than nothing :)
Add the --gles build option to the linux main script
Ifdef all gl code not supported on gles3 (note some will be reenabled for gles3.1)
Note: it probably doesn't run anymore. My Nvidia driver doesn't support
yet egl/gles so I can't test it. Feel free to contribute.
UserHacks_AlphaStencil will take precedence on override_GL_ARB_shader_image_load_store
