- Conservative Buffer Allocation will be enabled by default.
- Unscaled has a lesser visual impact but will be moved to the middle so it is more consistent with the other options in the GUI.
- Monitor will hence be named Statistics Monitor which makes it more obvious that it's similar to RivaTuner Statistics Server.
- The monitor will print the stats of the emulated components EE (roughly CPU-usage) , GS (roughly GPU-usage).
- Make room for the new checkboxes with revision of names and tooltips.
- GPU (color) Palette Conversion instead of 8bit textures (the name didn't make much sense).
Automatic, Force Disabled, Force Enabled.
Automatic - automatically determinate if a game needs the half screen
fix.
Force Disabled - fully disables the half bottom fix. It will help
Xenosaga games.
Force Enabled - fully enables the half bottom fix. Will help Lord of the
Rings Two Towers, Superman Shadows of Apokolips, Midnight Club 3.
A short summary how d3d option behaves compared to gl.
None d3d-> behaves the same
Basic d3d-> even less than 1/3 of Basic opengl.
Medium d3d -> less than 1/3 of Basic opengl.
High d3d -> 1/3 of Basic opengl.
Note: Medium and High options are mostly intended for debug use.
We are removing MSAA for the following reasons:
1. It's broken
2. Fixing it would mean it would perform as well as FSAA, which defeats the purpose of having it
3. It's only supported by DX and Windows
4. Reduction in code complexity
Press F to pay respect
Idea is to disable multiple features in 1 option to avoid gui clutter.
Unscale Point and Line:
This partially reverts PR #2710 restoring Unscale Point and Line but as a disable option.
It can help Xenosaga games.
GS Memory clearning:
This disables GS memory clearing to be done on the CPU, by default both gpu and cpu do memory clearing
which is more accurate.
It can help Kingdom Hearts games.
Always enable unscale point and line hack on upscaled resolutions, and
purge the gui option.
It was discussed in the past with Gregoy that it can be enabled without
causing any issues which will be beneficial to getting rid of 1 less
option and fixing a bunch of fmv issues without relying on a gui toggle.
This pull request is for the pending reorganization of the folder structure on GSdx,
making it better organized and easier to work with.
Also remove unused GSTextureFX.cpp file.
