We can't do a full port because channel shuffle and depth sampling need
to be ported to d3d but at the very least we can do a partial port that
skips the bad draw calls.
This way we can remove all the remaining crc hacks for ICO in GSHwHacks.
This should make things a bit easier for users when picking resolutions.
Native (PS2)
2x Native (~720p)
3x Native (~1080p)
4x Native (~1440p 2K)
5x Native (~1620p 3K)
6x Native (~2160p 4K)
8x Native (~2880p 5K)
Custom (Not Recommended)
Change the code so that some crc hacks on some games that remove
ghosting/blur issues on upscaled resolutions are disabled on native
resolution if crc hack level is below Aggressive state (most of the time).
They aren't needed then so why don't we aim for better accuracy.
Follow up from #2586 which ensures that MAC address is unique on Xlink Kai when using Windows.
Previous build was returning last two bytes as 00:00 rather than last two bytes of host adapter's MAC.
Let's keep the file clean and use 1 type of formatting and not a bunch.
It's easier to read this way and looks tidy.
Also correct some commented out code in Texture Sampler.
Hack will no longer be active on Intel or AMD gpus.
Also remove UserHacks_disable_NV_hack. sprite hack
basically does the same thing so it's kinda useless.
Some values were incorrect, now I'm no expert but looking at the code
and behavior seemed a bit wrong compared to gl.
Improves d3d rendering on Sonic Unleashed, the purple screen is gone
matching it with gl visuals.
dfmt is not supported but we can use the variable to select the
frame buffer format and later disable writting to the alpha channel.
MGS3 sees an improvement, and possibly other games as well.
So far didn't spot any regressions.

Only native res is supported currently, but it's still great progress.
Someone needs to port the ScalingFactor to D3D from commit:

Credits to KrossX for porting the shader.
Adjust gui accross various gui windows.
Adjust naming, positioning of buttons, spacing ...etc.
The different windows should look more similar and not be different.
Also purge IDD_XAUDIO2 window that wasn't used anywhere.
Add a missing crc id for the US version,
, move the crc to DX level - effect is emulated correctly on OpenGL with
depth,
merge the two Yakuza hacks together and reformat it making it easier to
be read.
Skip 3 also seems to work on Yakuza 2.

Reformat the code a bit, ocd satisfaction.
This prevents the dialog from preserving state after it is closed, which
simplifies the logic slightly for reopening the dialog.
Also remove an unused variable.
Re add point sampler to OpenGL. Fixes graphical issues when
Allow 8-bit textures is enabled on AMD gpus.
Issue: https://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-GSDX-Hardware-mode-Bug-Report-Allow-8-bit-Texture
Adjust the code to be easier to read, and execute the gl code only on amd - suggested by Gregory.
Remove useless ATI_SUCKS define in tfx shader.It wasn't used anywhere outside of the shader.
Enhance the skipdraw hack by allowing skipdraw to skip a range of draw
calls.
For example: When the broken effects are at frames 90-100, the default
skipdraw always skips 0-100, possibly skipping several functioning
effects as well. By enhancing the skipdraw feature, it is now possible
to skip just frames 90-100.
For the example given above set the first box to 90 and the second box
to 100 to skip frames 90-100.

Decrease spacing between Hardware Settings and Texture Filtering
slightly. It was a bit too much before,
Adjusted spacing to be equal between options, some had incorrect
spacing.
Maybe Accurate Date and Blending Unit Accuracy can be swapped.
Makes all the tabs scrollable, which makes the dialog more usable (the
OK button should always be present unless the screen is absurdly small).
Only checked on GTK3.
Use hexpand instead of expand, and use margin-start instead of
margin-left (margin-left is deprecated in GTK+ 3.12). IMO it looks
better this way.
Also, set the properties using gtk_widget_set_* instead of g_object_set.
Adjust/tidy up the gui to make it more appealing,
some bad positioning has been fixed.
Properly grey out Audio Expansion Mode text when
the option is inactive.
Add God of War Demo ntsc,
Add Burnout Takedown E3 Demo ntsc,
Adjust regions for Harry Potter ATCOS/ATPOA,

Prisoner of Azkaban, Order Of The Phoenix), The Incredible Hulk:
Ultimate Destruction.
Add some missing crc ids for GT4 demo discs.
Fixes some issues with opening ini/log files when the path contains

Adjust Spartan crc hack: Combine/ease the hacks in to one.
Only remove the glow/yellow bloom effect and don't skip any other effects that shouldn't be skipped. UI and some other post processing effects work properly now.
Add crc id CrashBandicootWoC RU.
Add some missing RU crc ids: Onimusha3, ICO, TombRaiderUnderworld, SoulReaver2, LegacyOfKainDefiance.
Removed crc id 7ACF7E03 and mentions of that id and it's duplicates. The id is from a multiloader when packing images, and not an actual crc id from a game(s).
Add FinalFightStreetwise RU, SoulCalibur3 RU. Correcting the wrong id TenchuFS RU (the elf was modified widescreen cheat, sorry). Delite Kunoichi RU (the elf was modified widescreen cheat, the original coincides with the EU).
Move a hack that removed burning/hot air effect. The effect is rendered properly but causes slowdowns so it's best to move it to aggressive for now.
Add comments explaining what the crc hacks do.
Ease the crc hack and skip less effects, makes shadows and some other effects work properly.
The game experiences a bit more upscaling issues which can be resolved with Merge Sprite and Wild Arms offset HW hacks.
Avoid always setting the dialog to the centre of the screen - the GTK+3
documentation advises against it.
Avoid using a GUI callback - it's unnecessary since the value can just
be retrieved afterwards.
Simplify the GUI construction - a container to handle layout isn't
necessary due to the GUI's lack of complexity.
IOCTL_SCSI_PASS_THROUGH_DIRECT will return success even if the read
fails (I'm not sure when it'll return failure). Assume the read is
successful only when the read length is correct.
Purge Hw hack fixes for Spyro New Beginning and Eternal Night that fixed
HUD and menu display.
They will be replaced with EE patches in GameDB that work for both
software and hardware mode. A much better alternative and less GSdx
hacks.
Port from commit b0af54d3
Fixes shadows in Star Ocean 3.
Note: It works properly on native res only just like on GL.
Upscaling will cause some issues.
Only Direct3D10/11 supports it, D3D9 doesn't support integer operations
so we can't reuse the code.
Revert merge of Spyro Eternal Night / New Beginning hw hack.
Update Spyro New Beginning hack - fixes menu/hud flicker in HW mode.
SW mode still has issues with the menu/hud elements.
Improve #1490
The following games in the crc list are not used anywhere so
we can clean this list up. If some are needed in the future then
they can be re added.
List of removed games:
CaptainTsubasa,
Dororo,
HarvestMoon,
Jak1,
JamesBondEverythingOrNothing,
NamcoXCapcom,
SDGundamGGeneration,
SeintoSeiya,
SengokuBasara,
SilentHill2,
SilentHill3,
Siren,
TalesofDestiny,
VF4,
VF4EVO.
The crc hack broke graphics ingame, causing flickering/transparent
textures and other similar issues.
On a side note the game experiences upscaling issues that can be fixed
with Half Pixel offset hack.
Update it to the version found at
https://github.com/Microsoft/Windows-classic-samples , which is in an
MIT licensed repo, and add the LICENSE file (edited to remove the SIL
Open Font LICENSE part since that doesn't apply).
Some modifications have been made to reduce the diff/stop git
complaining (not including any file that wasn't in the previous version
and removing the related header includes in streams.h, and fixing some
but not all of the whitespace issues).
Move CRC hacks do DX level.
Hack that fixes shadows:
Shadows/glitchy black ground textures can be fixed with Preload Frame Data.
Hack that removed vertical stripes:
D3D10/11 correctly emulates texture shuffle but also needs depth support.
Don't skip draw calls on Jackie Chan Adv and SVC Chaos,
fixes regressions on Jackie Chan Adv and SVC Chaos.
Gregory: The correct fix would be to trace all textures writes to
be sure of the source. But it is a much bigger work.
Purge Sengoku Basara crc hacks. Texture shuffle is emulated correctly on
d3d11/ogl. d3d9 skips the bad draw call.
Move Eternal Poison crc hack to d3d level. Not needed on ogl since
the game is emulated correctly.
Move hack that removes texture shuffle for Demon Stoneback back to ogl level,
half screen bottom issue remains.
Extent CRC hack for The Getaway and The Getaway Black Monday to work on
EU regions.
Move CRC hack that removed shadows to Aggressive, shadows are misaligned
when upscaling - can be fixed with HPO. We can use the hack as a
speedhack for Aggressive state.
Add correct FBP code for Sly 2 E3 Demo. CRC hack should work properly now.
Purge God of War 1/2 CRC hacks that fixed/removed the vertical red lines.
No longer needed since the issue is fixed accross all renders.
Also useless to be kept for speedhacks.
Texture Shuffle changes:
Always Enable Texture shuffle on D3D10/11.
Previously Texture shuffle was enabled if CRC hack
level was below Full, this was kinda not good since
D3D also relies on CRC hacks on Full so you could either
stick with texture shuffle or crc hacks.
Texture shuffle is not supported on D3D9, however we can do a partial
port where instead of vertical lines with the effect we get the effect
on the entire screen. Better than nothing I suppose.
Ported some of the code from OpenGL to D3D
( just a copy - paste job :) ),
part of the code misses a dedicated shader but we can still
use it to fix various issues on many games.
List of affected games tested so far:
The Godfather, Final Fight Streetwise, The Suffering Ties that Bind,
Urban Chaos have their vertical lines issues fixed
(highly possible for other games as well), MGS and Stolen see an improvement
but they are still broken without crc hacks. Other games that suffered
similar issues are probably affected as well.
Channel Shuffle changes:
Update Channel Shuffle detection. A lot of games should see an improvement,
MGS, Urban Chaos, Stolen have their top left corner issues resolved.
Other games should be affected as well that use similar logic.
They still miss a shader so some effects are still broken/show glitches
but it's a nice improvement for D3D users.
Shared changes:
Texture Shuffle and Channel shuffle have been moved to their
own dedicated functions. Should make things a bit cleaner.
Move part of the code for Texture Shuffle to GSRendererHW to be shared
across all HW renderers, should aboid copy paste/duplicate code.
Replace/remove an old crc hack that was used to fix the red vertical
lines issue, the hack is no longer needed. The new hack removes depth
effects on D3D only.
Note: The game has another vertical lines issue that can be fixed with
texture shuffle on D3D.
Add comments to Simple2000Vol114 explaining what the hacks do.
Merge identical code for Spyro Games in to one to avoid duplicate code.
Rename hacks name for Jak series from OO_Jak to OO_JakGames since there
are multiple games added.
This follows PR #2330.
Add some missing regions: Tomb Raider Legend JP,
StarWars Force Unleashed EU, SuperMan Returns EU, Valkyrie Profile 2 FR.
Rename GT3/Concept titles, they were incorrect.
Adjust Harley Davidson region id from NoRegion to US.
Add some missing regions to automatic mipmapping:
FIFA 03 US, FIFA 04 EU, FIFA 05 EU.
Reformat a few comments.
Add "Default" nametag for default list options for the hacks: Sprite,
Round Sprite, GL Advanced settings, HPO.
Should help users know which options are the default ones with less
confusion.
Add CRC id for FFXII US, SFEX3 EU,
GT4 CH and GT4 Online Beta US.
Adjust BullyCC region from US to EU.
Add Missing regions for Ratchet & Clank,
Ace Combat, Destroy All Humans and Soul Reaver
series to Automatic Mipmapping.
Removes GT4/Tourist Trophy CRC hacks. The hack had already been moved to
aggressive due to VRAM spike issues, but is no longer necessary at all
due to the in-game brightness/contrast setting issue being moved to
behind the frame buffer conversion hack for Direct3D and being resolved for OpenGL.
Move hacks that disabled shadows to DX level since OpenGL renders
shadows properly with Depth Emulation.
Some other upscaling issues appear with the disabled hack like a small
black border on the bottom of the screen or some ui elements but those
can be fixed with TC X,Y Offset hack.
Previously, the calculation for the size of data to be loaded was done
based on the rendering target buffer size and scaling multiplier, which
was totally wrong. This led to different resolutions having different
load sizes while the size of the real GS memory is common regardless of
the scaling variancies.
Hence use the default rendering target buffer size for the load size
independent of the scaling values. I've also removed a buffer height saturation
code which seemed unreliable.
Note: The accurate version of the code can be enabled using the macro
provided in config.h (which is more intensive on resources), the current
code goes along with the approach of maintaining a decent performance
level along with a formidable accuracy.
Avoid using the IOCTL_DVD_START_SESSION and IOCTL_DVD_END_SESSION ioctls
- it's not necessary to obtain an Authentication Grant ID (AGID) before
requesting the DVD physical format layer descriptor.
Adjust region id for BT2.
Move the sky texture(depth) hack back to Partial level only for the EU
regions. Effect is still not rendered correctly and causes a half
screen bottom issue.
Add R&C3 EU to Automatic Mipmapping.
Previously the limit was 1000, now 10000 in the GUI. It should help in
some rare cases where a higher number is needed without the need of ini
editing and value reset issues caused by the GUI.
Previously if HW hacks were enabled Merge Sprite was active(if checked) on
native resolution even if the GUI option was disabled, which in result
caused glitches in games on native resolution.
This should address that issue.
