Enables character outlines to partially work on Full CRC.
DX9 has a small issue where a small black line at the bottom shakes when outlines are enabled.
You can either use Aggressive crc or x,y offset to fix the issue.
Removed unnecessary crc hack that caused shadows on stationary objects (trees) to move on Direct3D in a weird
motion blur type way when the player moved slightly.
* Cast return value of IsEof() to bool. (Avoids int -> bool performance
warning error)
* Cast field and index to the required parameter type of AppendRawData.
The default 12 is rather low and won't suffice for most cases, updating
it to 20 to give some extra space for additional ISOs. Incrementing it
to an even higher value might not be so good as it consumes lots of
vertical space, not a nice idea for people with smaller screens.
The sprite geometry shader was still being used even if the sprites were
converted on the CPUs.
Convert all sprites using the GPU - the fix isn't ideal, but it'll
likely have to do unless someone feels like porting over more of the
OpenGL changes to the D3D11 renderer.
Closes#1921.
Class member variables are initialised in order of declaration in the
class definition. Move native_buffer to the top of the class definition
to avoid initialising m_width and m_height to random values.
Move the custom resolution scaling code to a separate subroutine and
allow future RT buffer resize calls when the buffer size isn't enough.
(Example: when a game's CRTC/Framebuffer size changes. The older code
didn't consider such cases)
Added a more robust buffer size calculation mechanism for custom
resolutions. Improves performance in higher resolutions for games
which don't need a big buffer. There's a great boost in performance
at GS limited scenarios.
I don't even feel there's a need for the large framebuffer option right
now, For future - I plan on making the large framebuffer enabled version
as the default as the overhead is there only at situations when it's
necessary. Until then keeping the original code just to be on the safe
side in case any issue pops up.
An EOF only occurs after attempting to read past the end of the file.
Account for this correctly, which fixes a potential infinite loop when
reading back an xz compressed GS dump.
Add the bitfield structure of the undocumented SYNCV register,
potentially might be useful in proper height determination of the output
circuit for some weird games which still get it wrong but still haven't
figured out how it might be useful. Maybe some sort of black magic
formula with the vertical synchronization values?
The differential phase value seems to closely resemble the display
height value of the video modes (480 for NTSC, 576 for PAL) but after
some investigating into the differential phase, I have no clue on how
they might be even related. Hopefully the mystery will be unveiled in
the near future.
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
Move version check to own file
Split main installer into own script. Integrated changes for portable/standard installation.
Forgot to remove a message box
Null plugins are sad and lonely, put them with the others later
Minor tweaks, force remove Plugins folder because it can prevent $INSTDIR from being deleted (assuming we're doing a standard uninstall)
Rewrite version detection to search for 0.9.8 to 1.4.0 as well as future builds.
Remove offending whitespace
Typo ;)
Remove XPStyle parameter. It isn't needed anymore
Updated copyright, added ManifestDPIAware for rich folks, removed IDOK true and Cheats folder from $INSTDIR as Turtleli suggested, formatting adjustments.
Gitignore: remove now unused NSIS directories
Fixed a nasty regression I introduced after a registry pointer was assumed to be incorrect. It contained UserMode data generated by the First Time Wizard. This was causing conflicts and the FTW to fail randomly when running PCSX2 after a reinstall due to old configuration data being read.
I added clarifcation below the original comment to reduce confusion in the future.
Forgot to add SharedRedtape changes to last commit
Remove unused SVN templates
Compile the installer to the NSIS folder so that the user doesn't need to worry about the output folder missing; and wonder why the installer won't compile ;)
Minor tweaks for SharedBase and SharedRedTape:
-Updated ${APP_VERSION} to 1.6.0 and tweaked uninstall_log for functionality with uninstall script in pcsx2_full_install.nsi
-Added !define for installer icon
-Replaced obsolete function with RMDir functionality, uninstaller speed improved marginally
-Added filepath for $DOCUMENTS to be removed if empty
Main installer tweaks/enhancements:
-Tested installer functions in NSIS 3.01
-Implemented uninstall script for future version detection. If an older or equivalent PCSX2 version is detected, the user is prompted to silently uninstall/overwrite or abort the installer. (The function is not compatible with any current stable releases because they lack the registry string required for version detection.)
-Added a new installer function so that we can launch PCSX2 directly from the installer.
-Supressed some errors related to unused plugins in MakeNSIS.
-Replaced File with CreateDirectory function (for Cheats only) because it can't be used on an empty folder and will cause MakeNSIS to fail.
-Removed unused /oname parameter that was leftover from SVN builds.
-Added option to install additional languages for those who desire to save 2MB of space.
-Condensed DirectX Packages into SectionGroup for neatness
Issue: wait of the semaphore timedout. However semaphore was properly posted
counter is 1.
To workaround the issue, only throw an error if semaphore counter is 0.
Note: I reduced the timeout to 100ms by threads to avoid huge startup delay
Close#1939
* replace gtk_table by gtk_grid
=> it still misses some paddings
* Use 3.22 monitor API to query screen size
=> need to be tested
* directly add scrolled windows into a container without bothering with
the viewport.
Code compile fine but wasn't tested.
v2: disable the code until I (or someone) get a chance to test and fix it.
