In particular this fixes the 6666 colour format
We were loading from the wrong location and it was causing /terrible/ colour changes.
This also fixes a bug in the all the colour formats(except 888) where the unaligned path was loading in to the wrong register.
- Fixes remaining lighting issues (Mario Tennis, etc)
- Apply same fixes to Software Renderer
- Corrected zero length light direction vector to resolve with normal direction (essentially becomes LIGHTDIF_NONE which was what I was after)
The new implementation has 3 options:
SyncGpuMaxDistance
SyncGpuMinDistance
SyncGpuOverclock
The MaxDistance controlls how many CPU cycles the CPU is allowed to be in front
of the GPU. Too low values will slow down extremly, too high values are as
unsynchronized and half of the games will crash.
The -MinDistance (negative) set how many cycles the GPU is allowed to be in
front of the CPU. As we are used to emulate an infinitiv fast GPU, this may be
set to any high (negative) number.
The last parameter is to hack a faster (>1.0) or slower(<1.0) GPU. As we don't
emulate GPU timing very well (eg skip the timings of the pixel stage completely),
an overclock factor of ~0.5 is often much more accurate than 1.0
This fixes issue 6563:
https://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/issues/detail?id=6563
This PR adds a 2nd map to texture cache, which uses the hash as key. Cache entries from this new map are used only if the address matches or if the texture was fully hashed. This restriction avoids false positive cache hits. This results in a possible situation where safe texture cache accuracy could be faster than the fast one.
Small textures means up to 1KB for fast texture cache accuracy, 4KB for medium, and all textures for safe accuracy.
Since this adds a small overhead to all texture cache handling, some regression testing would be nice. Games, which use a lot of textures the same time, should be affected the most.
I tried to change messages that contained instructions for users,
while avoiding messages that are so technical that most users
wouldn't understand them even if they were in the right language.
Address static memory relative to a base register, analog to what we're
doing with PPCSTATE in the CPU JIT. This allows executable memory for
the vertex loader JIT to be allocated anywhere, not just within 2 GiB of
static data.
Fixes issue 8180.
Yet another story of games loading weird shit into registers.
For some reason, Burnout 2 would (in rare situations) load invalid
addresses into cp_state.array_bases. What would the real hardware
do in this situation? Who knows, Burnout 2 doesn't actually enable
the vertex array with the invalid address so nothing kinky happens.
But dolphin tries to optimise things and starts using the address
as soon as it is loaded into memory. This causes GetPointer (which is
now much more vocal) to throw an error.
The Fix: We don't call GetPointer until we are sure the vertex array
has been enabled.
