* Configuration panels are all modal-less now, so that you can open the config panel and leave it open while running games.
* Handful of thread sync improvements.
* Fixed on-the-fly interpreter/recompiler configuration.
* Fixed plugin hotswapping (mostly works, but still a little funny at times)
* All new assertion dialogs and popup message handlers.
* RecentIsoList defaults to 12 instead of 6
Dev Notes:
* I had to create a new set of assertion functions called pxAssume*. Originally I hoped to avoid that complexity, and just use a single one-assert-fits-all case, but turned out blanketly using __assume() for all assertion cases wasn't reliable.
* wxGuiTools: Replaced the operator, with operator& -- the latter has proper order of precedence, the former required () to scope correctly. >_<
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2339 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Removed some hacks from cpuDetectInit's use of cpuId.
* Improved assertion checking for thread affinity.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2327 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Better error handling for when sVU fails allocating memory at a specific location (should fail less).
* Partial support for detecting and handling non-SSE2 machines with some grace.
* Improved sVU's allocation chances with a second try at another randomish address (and removed alloc fail spam from the console -- only logs on complete fail now).
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2321 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Added support for indentation, as a replacement for using \t (options include methods SetIndent and Indent, and a ConsoleIndentScope class for scoped indentation of a block of WriteLns.)
* Use of Indent() as a modifier (the abstraction optionally allows use of indentation methods besides \t, if ever needed).
* Minor header file cleanups: wxWidgets standard headers are now always first in PrecompiledHeader.h files (is recommended due to cross platform setup code by wx).
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2198 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Added more colors!
* VM's EE/IOP logs (the ones that come from the emulated games themselves) are colored accordingly: EE are faint cyan, IOP are faint yellow. They're intentionally "hard to read" because 99% of the time they're meaningless trivia (but still cool since it's what the actual devs would have used for developing the games!).
Dev Notes:
* Removed Console.Status (specify blue/green colors manually if you want them).
* Renamed Console.Notice to Console.Warning.
* I changed the overloads so that both char* and wxChar* versions work like printf now (no need to use wxsFormat when working with unicode strings). I also removed wxString& versions of the overloads. This should (I hope) also be an easier port to wx2.9 or 3.0, when that time comes.
* Default log color is now black instead of gray; typically you'll want to manually specify Color_Gray when doing high volume logging (like the EErec's block tracking in debug builds).
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2091 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Exception/Signal handling now uses an EventSource, so that multiple handlers can be registered. This is in preparation for (eventual) more complete MIPS TLB support in the VTLB memory model.
* Improved code isolation, so that recompiler-specific code is primarily in iR5900-32.cpp (cleans up Counters.cpp and SysCoreThread.cpp)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2063 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Completely new assertion macros: pxAssert, pxAssertMsg, and pxFail, pxAssertDev (both which default to using a message). These replace *all* wxASSERT, DevAssert, and jASSUME varieties of macros. New macros borrow the best of all assertion worlds: MSVCRT, wxASSERT, and AtlAssume. :)
* Rewrote the Console namespace as a structure called IConsoleWriter, and created several varieties of ConsoleWriters for handling different states of log and console availability (should help reduce overhead of console logging nicely).
* More improvements to the PersistentThread model, using safely interlocked "Do*" style callbacks for starting and cleaning up threads.
* Fixed console logs so that they're readable in Win32 notepad again (the log writer adds CRs to naked LFs).
* Added AppInit.cpp -- contains constructor, destructor, OnInit, and command line parsing mess.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1950 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Rewrote Savestate code, fixed lots of stuff in PersistentThread, and renamed most "Emu"s to "Sys".
* Removed wxScopedPtr and whipped up our own ScopedPtr that doesn't use boost's fail-style function names (and made it more thread-safe).
* Handling exceptions across threads: Added Clone() and Rethrow() methods to BaseException, and added a Rethrow() to PersistentThread.
* Go rid of AppInvoke macros (those were nasty!)

Dev Note: EmuConfig is now *const*, and can *only* be modified by a call to ApplySettings(), which itself cannot be called from its own thread. This protects against accidental thread-unsafe on-the-fly settings changes. Amazingly we had only one such settings change in the existing trunk. I fixed it ;)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1903 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Projects: Removed FrameworkVersion descriptor, don't think it matters for C++ code. Removed all translation files, since they're grossly out-dated and need to be remade anyway.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1894 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Lots of crashfixes and threading rules compliance (like using wxYield instead of ProcessPendingEvents)
* Killed off some memory corruption
* Better error handling and reporting
* Much speedier suspend/resume during emulation
* Revamped entire savestate system to use a RIFF-style file format (untested, will work on it soon)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1832 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
MemoryCard / Multitap Renovations:
* Memorycards should now support multitap (somewhat untested)
* Implemented a memorycard plugin interface, using the new API defined in PluginCallbacks.h (still prelim and hackish)
* Memorycard settings are saved to ini!
* Multitap is now controlled by PCSX2 instead of the pad plugin (which means no multitap until we implement the gui toggles to enable it)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1817 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Fixed a bug in how I was (not) handling pthreads return codes. It's errno you need to check, *not* the function's return value. ;)
* Changed MTGS over to use the pthread_cleanup api.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1779 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Fixed a deadlock in thread cancellation.
* Muted some folder warnings when running pcsx2 for the first time.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1778 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Moved some files around in an attempt to improve CoreEmu and UI separation.
* Major upgrade to the UI's handling of savestates
* Maintenance work to the C++ exception handling
* Some improved error handling and message popups here or there
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/wxgui@1714 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Fixed like a gazillion bugs in the new CDVD system; memory corruption, memory leaks, failed resets, and who knows what else.
* New commandline parameters!! Added -skipbios/-nodisc/-usecdvd/-elf [file] options, intended replacements for the now obsolete -bootmode (bootmode should still work as it used to).
* fixed a bug that kept -help from working, and updated -help to display all the new command lines.
* -nogui command line now causes PCSX2 to close on escape, instead of escaping back to the GUI.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1684 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Major cleanups and improvements to the Threading namespace.
* Created CoreEmuThread class framework, which currently runs the EEcore, IOP, and VUs with threadsafe suspension, reset, and resume features.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/wxgui@1624 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* finished most of the new plugin system (branch is buildable and runnable again, but no significant functionality has been added yet).
* Removed STGS code from the branch since I planned to kill it off anyway and it was more work to code proper support for it in wx than to remove it.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/wxgui@1595 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Console now uses a fixed-width font by default
* Core PCSX2 memory structures (VTLB and Recompilers) are allocated on startup.
* Added some more gui/ini/startup mess.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/wxgui@1539 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
I will later work on getting the typical plugins to support these new functions.
I have tried to also update the linux side, but I can't compile or test it so it might not work properly.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1511 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Moved the x86 emitter to /common, so that plugins can link against it if they wish.
* Created a new "utility" class in /common which houses string utils, fast memcpy, common exception classes, and other handy dandies.
* Removed old-style linux automake files from the pcsx2 dir since they were hopelessly out of date (and their multi-file-per-line format makes svn merging impossible >_<)

- Cleanup and organizational changes of VU related stuff.
- Separated Super VU, microVU, and Interpreter files.
- Renamed all Super VU related files with an 'sVU' prefix.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1356 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
basically if you run an elf file now, the cdvd plugin will attempt to open once, and if it has an error (like loading no-game), it'll let you continue running the elf file, and it won't bug you again.
but if it did open successfully, it'll initiate the cdvd plugin normally (allowing elf files to read the cdvd contents, like the Snes emu for ps2...)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1154 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
- PCSX2 would repetitively call CDVDopen if loading an elf file and your cdvd plugin didn't have an ISO already pre-loaded. Basically I had to switch to CDVDnull whenever I wanted to load an elf... well not anymore xD
microVU:
- Implemented the VI regs thing where if an opcode tried to access vi regs 16~31, the VU's should return vi0~15 (viReg & 0xf); technically it should never happen, but from my tests the BIOS seems to do this... so maybe some rare games do it too...
- Our VIF code apparently uses VU cycles for some stuff, so I now update the cycles variable VIF relies on.
- Minor Optimizations
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1136 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* SSE3 detection via cpuid implemented. [fixes Linux -- the force_sse3 option should no longer be needed!]
* Instruction tests are now done for SSE3, SSE4, and SSE4.1 to confirm cpuid results (I doubt this is necessary, but the old code did it for SSE3, so I figured I'd keep it and log results anytime an inconsistency is detected).
* SSE4.2 and SSE4a detection added.
