dolphin/Source/Plugins/Plugin_VideoDX9/Src/TextureCache.h, branch 3.0

Add EFB encode-to-RAM support in DX11 backend. It could probably be simplified a lot, and not all the possible formats are implemented. I tried to use the dynamic-linking feature of shader model 5, but Microsoft's HLSL compiler is broken. "Dynamic mode" is implemented, but disabled for now.

DX11: Fix mipmaps. Someone forgot creating them at the proper time ;P

2010-11-24T19:13:19+00:00

DX11: Fix a DX11 debug runtime error caused by the vertex shader output signature and the pixel shader input signature not matching if per-pixel lighting is disabled. Someone forgot disabling those pixel shader parameters ;P
DX11: Enable use of dynamic textures wherever possible.
DX9: Remove two unnecessary TODOs. Someone forgot removing those since they've been obsolete for a long time ;P

Anyway, at least working mipmaps and dynamic textures should increase DX11 performance a bit. And "a bit" is more than my usual "marginally" ;)

Merged common texture cache code from video plugins into VideoCommon. (DX11 native mipmaps currently broken, disabled) Hopefully everything else should still be working.

Fixed hires textures not scaling. Also increased max size of custom textures to 2048x2048.

big changes here:

2010-07-18T00:18:31+00:00

- Eliminate the useless check for cpu modifications option from efb to ram as it must be enabled always
- use constant names in dx11 for buffer length calculation instead to simplify code reading
- implemented scaled efb copy in opengl, still bugy in some games, the option is not in the gui but will add it when it works perfect
- Change the depth calculation behavior:
if the game use z textures is exactly the same as before.
if the game do not use z texture calculate z values in the vertex shader. the advantage id this approach is that early z culling is applied,
improving fill rate. this mus speed up things, even with ssaa and msaa enabled.
please test for regression and enjoy.

ok, here goes a really experimental commit:

2010-07-06T22:27:13+00:00

replace efb to ram implementation by a hybrid approach.
explanation:
when copying from efb to texture, instead of make a copy to a texture or to the ram, copy the data to both, in hi quality to the texture and in native quality to the ram.
then instead of re-decoding the data from ram (very slow) use the data in the texture.
to improve this even more, test if the cpu has modified the data in the ram copy, if so, update the texture in memory and mark it as dynamic to avoid redundant work in future frames.
having all this implemented this is what is archived:
sms: full quality with scaled efb copies and fully functional goop cleaning :)
ztp: efb to texture speed with full map support.
nsmbw: this is a hard to emulate game, as it make a lot of shading and texture modification in cpu. it only have 35 fps in my system with new efb to ram but is 10 fps faster than normal efb to ram.
this game also show me another unimplemented feature, copy efb to multiple textures at the same time (is used to animate coins and other things in the world).
this is a remaining todo in efb to texture.
a lot of games should improve, so please test and let me know any regresion caused by this commit. 
if everyone likes this the next step is, implement efb to multilpe textures and merge efb to ram and efb to texture.
then port to the other plugins.
enjoy.

HUGE commit :)

2010-06-05T00:01:18+00:00

in general cleanup and bugfix disable pierre  patch for the moment as it causes problem in some games and hopefully fix the remaining missing textures for nvidia users in opengl.
make the code in pixelshadergen looks nice and readable.
D3D: this is a ultra experimental commit please check for regressions or error.
make the efb Scale / super sampling level customizable to improve the output quality and let the user configure quality according to his hardware.
is everyone likes this change will translate it to opengl
please test

Fix some cases of variables being used uninitialized. Also some unused

2010-06-02T20:35:12+00:00

variables, writeable strings and dangerously shadowed variables.

index(), gamma(), exp() and y0() are POSIX functions and using those
names can cause namespace confusion.

A number of C files were missing the final newline required by ANSI C
and some versions of GCC are pedantic enough to complain about this.

These changes simply the scons build, allowing us to get rid of
filterWarnings which is simply more trouble than it's worth.

fixed xfb bumping introduced by my last commit.

2010-04-14T13:57:16+00:00

implemented loading of native mips, see sms water :).
