Best setting if you driver support GL_NV_depth_buffer_float => GL_NV_Depth = 1 & logz = 0
Otherwise => GL_NV_Depth = 0 & logz = 1
Explanation of the bug:
Dx z position ranges from 0.0f to 1.0f (FS ranges 0.0f to 1.0f)
GL z Position ranges from -1.0f to 1.0f (FS ranges 0.0f to 1.0f)
Why it sucks:
GS small depth value will be "mapped" to -1.0f. In others all small values will be 1.0f! Terrible lost
of accuraccy.
The GL_NV_depth_buffer_float extension allow to set the near plane as -1.0f.
So
"GL z Position ranges from -1.0f to 1.0f (FS ranges 0.0f to 1.0f)"
will become
"GL z Position ranges from -1.0f to 1.0f (FS ranges -1.0f to 1.0f)"
and therefore
"z posision [0.0f;1.0f] will map to FS [0.0f;1.0f]" as DX
Yes we just get back all precision lost previously :)
However you need hardware (intel?) and driver support (free driver?/gles?) :(

The preferred audio output module is PortAudio, so making it the default under Windows now (it is already on Linux).
It will use wasapi mode with the default sound device by default, both are configurable though.
This setup gives us better latency and a higher time stretch polling frequency, resulting in better quality overall.
With this we can also lower the main latency default from 150ms to now 100ms.
There is no error checking for the wasapi mode selection yet, as I don't know how this should be done.
Help would be appreciated (gigaherz!) :p

Add another scanline algorithm, made by pseudonym. This one is pretty fancy, using a cosinus function for generating the dark lines.
It only works on unscaled output, so use software rendering or native resolution for hardware.
It's an effect that works best on 240p converted games (like the SNES titles in Mega Man Collection).

Next commit will include some cleanups, and I'll probably also remove the dynamic-tunning and related support code (not a lot of code though, but.. it's currently unused). I'm also considering completely removing the old stretcher from the code, such that both dynamic-tunning and the old stretcher will only live in SVN history.
Meanwhile, you can test this patch and report back here if you notice a difference. BTW, on my system I use the portaudio output since IIRC it offers the lowest latency.
As before, to display stretcher messages at the console, enable underrun/overrun messages at the SPU2X debug UI (which is also available on normal builds).

* GL_ARB_shader_subroutine for perf
fix for nvidia => add missing shader declaration. Nvidia got +4fps on colin3 :)
For the moment only 2 PS parameters are supported. Code need to be extended to support others games that often
switch shader program (like xenosaga).
require GL4 class hardware and the option override_GL_ARB_shader_subroutine = 1
Note: strangely on AMD linux it is slower!
* GL_ARB_shader_image_load_store for accuraccy (Date)
Use a signed integer texture and reenable color buffer writing
Current status: Amagami_transparency.gs & P3_battle_shadows.gs are now working on Nvidia with a small perf impact.
Current implementation detail:
1/ setup the standard stencil as before
2/ on remaining pixel, draw once to compute first primitive that will write a fail alpha value.
3/ final draw based on primitive id of step 2
Note: I think we would get a bad behavior if depth test&mask are enabled on step 2/3
Note2: on my limited testcase the perf impact was on CPU. It would be possible to merge step1&2 to nullifying it (could
even be faster actually), however it would require more GPU power.
Again require GL4 class hardware. And the option UserHacks_DateGL4 = 1

The idea was to replace shader program swith by pointer function calls inside
shaders. At least parameters that are often changed between draw call. So far
I only ported atst and colclip. Unfortunately code is "slower" (on GSdx standalone).
For the moment keep the code but disabled.
If I understand well the validation of program is done in the "driver thread"
but the additional call are done in the overloaded MTGS thread. Apitrace
profiling shows faster GPU draw calls. Another possibility is that the driver still
need to validate the draw call because of others state change.
Here some stats on colin3 (90 frames):
without subroutine: UseProgram 125246
with subroutine: UseProgram 2906, subroutine 125945 => 3605 extra calls overhead (not
all parameters are ported to subroutine)

git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@5682 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* don't delete the wnd in GSclose. It can still be used later
* Properly detect the GL_ARB_gpu_shader5 extension for Fxaa
* A couple of fix in Create (GSopen1) of GSWndEGL/GSWndOGL
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@5674 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* add exception in GSWndEGL and GSWndOGL
* Try to use EGL when GLX failed => you don't need any flags for the opensource driver ;)
cmake: don't install anymore the glsl shader
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@5671 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
gsdx:
* move gl function loading into GSwnd. Clean the header and avoid to rely on macro.
* Always require libegl for GSdx. You still need to select the API at compilation.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@5670 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Here the list of the major change:
* Drop glew. It won't failed to load because of the wrong glew version
* shaders are include in the source code to ease release&packaging
* Port GSdx-ogl to MS Windows
* Fix lots of HW rendering bug. 8bits textures/upscale/transparency...
- rendering isn't yet perfect but some games must be playable now.
* Add Fxaa shader.
* run on the opensouce driver (require mesa 9). You will need to build with EGL support
- either use this cmake option -DEGL_API=TRUE
- Or the handy script ./build.sh --egl ...
* Linux AMD users: you need to do a choice
* speed but bad rendering => catalyst
* correct rendering but slower => opensource radeon
* Some parts are still unimplemented:
- MSAA
- Vsync
- Fully dynamic switch between EGL/GLX
- Speed optimization
- Others stuff that I have forgotten :p
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@5667 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* update linux dialog: create a custom shader box and put it Shade boost and Fxaa
* force the reloading of the inifile after any configuration update.

Now the brach is ready to be merged :)
Dears Window users. If you can test that:
1/ still compile
2/ still running on DX
3/ can run with opengl

* Don't write color during stencil. Keep the old method to ease debug
* Realign date shader on DX
* keep stencil ref to 1. Reduce stencil management burder
* Fix texture pitch (was in pixels but need bytes). Fix Bleach Blade Battlers 2. Thanks Miseru for your trace
Remember note:
fxaa -> not yet implemented
msaa -> not implemented (I might drop it actually)
8 bit texture -> not yet implemented
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/gsdx-ogl-wnd@5657 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* detect Advanced Micro Devices for newer AMD Card...
* Mess with coordinate for StretchRect. Upscaling seem to work now. Surely the biggest diff between ogl and dx...
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/gsdx-ogl-wnd@5655 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* factorize sample object creation
* remember frame buffer attachment state
* Use a basic context on EGL. Allow to use Mesa 9.1 on AMD GPU.
* precompile vertex and geometry shader to avoid benchmark polution on replay
* Try harder to detect FGLRX driver on window
* various clean
Remain to fix the coordinate system for upscaling
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/gsdx-ogl-wnd@5651 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Fix shader alpha issue. Hoppefully fix lots of glitches.
* Use glBufferSubData to upload data into the constant buffer instead of map/unmap. More fps :)
* Fix wrong api setup on EGL
* Be more portable on glsl2h

- changed the KH2 fix in GetTextureMinMax to my taste, should give the same results, when the used texture rect is to the left/above the clamped area, it returns [min, min+1], and [max-1, max] for right/below
- m_mem.m_clut.Read32 was returned to its original place from GetAlphaMinMax
- UserHacks_WildHack was moved up to GSState, special UV handlers are only used when this setting is active
- updated xbyak to the latest available (avx2 seems incomplete, the 256-bit promoted old instructions are missing)
- changed vtune's include path to the 2013 edition
Some other not yet commited changes from a year ago:
- WriteImageX overflow crash-fix
- moved colclamp after dithering (sw mode), it makes more sense, no visible changes noticed
- Gif_Tag::analyzeTag(), there was a conditional I didn't like, split the loop into two parts
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@5649 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* clean texture management & use different texture unit for various texture operation
* separate sampler and texture setup
* Always disable GL_SCISSOR_TEST before any cleaning to be sure the all pixels are reset
* properly set upscale_multiplier in the linux gui (was mixed with msaa). Unfortunately it is still broken...
* Fix EGL with GSopen1
* Use stdcall for function definition in the replay (avoid segmentation fault)
* Directly use gl_Position in shader instead of an extra user defined variable

* Emulate Geometry Shader from the CPU.
* add some option to override opengl extension detection
* redo shader interface (again) to compile on the free driver
SW renderer is now working on the free driver.
To test it on your linux box use this cmake option -DEGL_API=TRUE
Note: (need opengl 3.0) I test mesa 9.2 git

* fix a bad interaction when GL_ARB_SSO is supported without GL_ARB_shading_language_420pack
* try to replace struct with flat parameter in glsl interface
=> with some hacks of the free driver, I was able to compile SW renderer shader. Unfortunately
the rendering is broken. Maybe my hack :p
* remove EGL context check (wasn't working as expected)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/gsdx-ogl-wnd@5644 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* fix wrong interaction when both GL41 or GL42 aren't supported
* Add a new define to downgrade opengl requirement to test the free driver and EGL
=> As far as I can tell, they only miss geometry shader& GLSL150 (got GLSL140)
* Found a way to avoid crash in AMD driver. Skip the upload of small texture but rendering is wrong now...

git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@5640 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* remove an old&useles dummy geometry shader (was used to workaround amd bug)
* use a basic X11 window for GSopen1
* redo the replayer: it is now based on dlopen rather than standard static/dynamic library. AMD driver doesn't play nicely with the later...

* By default use *.glsl file (handy to do some trials).
Only drawback, glsl2h need to be manually called at the moment

* would run on the opensource driver when they support geometry shader
Stil got some crash on the driver. Arg!!!

It wasn't the suspicious code, that actually seems to be correct. The rempty() case should now be unnecessary except in case of bad register settings, but that's outside of our control so it needs to stay until code's added for that case. A console warning would be appropriate.

-Elemental Garde - Fixed up D-Bit so it remembers the microVU state when recompiling, this fixes the bad geometry that was introduced with T/D bit handling.
-WRC Rally Evolved - Changed the XGKick delay to an increased number, solves all remaining SPS problems.
-Crash Twinsanity - Increased XGKick delay resolves geometry issues on Crash, thanks to Autoran1 for debugging this :)
GameDB Changes: Added XGKick hack to Crash Twinsanity auto gamefixes, checked the main entries for the others above have it too.

* bump minimal requirement to opengl 2! Basically any Dx9 class hardware. On intel you will need a gen4+ GPU.
* remove the bad quality integer texture to use only texture float. Again need an gen4+ Intel GPU. Opensource users: Mesa must be built with support of texture float (stupid patents)

- Moved the interrupt outside of the recompiled code.
VU Interpreter:

VIF/Path3 Masking: Put a timing break in on Path2 transfers, this gives it chance to stop being busy incase it is closely followed by a path3 mask, which caused it to go out of time. Fixes Sensible Soccer.
VIF: Fixed up a couple of typo's, which may or may not have done anything, one which was not setting an offset if it stalled on 1/4 of a quadword, which could have been disasterous if done by the wrong game.

1. Multiple cheats files (at the "cheats' folder) can be loaded, as long as they begin with the CRC and end in '.pnach' (e.g ABCD1234.Persona4(EU).god-mode.pnach)
2. Multiple cheats are also loaded from the Widescreen hacks folder ('cheats_ws'). File names rules are the same as for normal cheats.
TODO: Add config and GUI for widescreen hacks. Right now the cheat files from cheat_ws folder are loaded if cheats are enabled. We need a separate config for that.

Everblue: Slightly messy fix, not as nice as id hope, but it seems to work, we need to remember VU programs written to the VU so we can check if an unpack is modifying it. This retains the behaviour of the Snowblind engines whilst fixing everblue.
Hitman 2: Our vif0/1VUFinish() routing which works in conjunction with the delays wasn't paying attention to if the VIF was stalled or not and reran it before the game wanted it to, now fixed.

In this iteration, a simple read-ahead scheme is used where the next expected read begins as soon as the CDVD code calls FinishRead.
The expected improvement is close to 0 since a similar system is already in place in the core.
The next iteration should have an internal buffer, and use completion callbacks to initiate read-aheads as soon as the previous read is done, without waiting for the emulator to fetch the results of the previous operation.

This is a workaround for the many FMV issues that occur in hardware rendering and that will take a while longer to get a proper fix.
It doesn't have any checks for the current video mode, so don't put GSdx in software mode and expect this to adapt, okay? :p
Note: It's possible to get crashes from switching renderers so please report those if you get them.

Added loading of external shaders, coded by KrossX (thanks again :p ).
Right now it looks for a file called "shader.fx" in PCSX2's main directory.
If it finds one, the PageUp key activates the external shader (instead of the built-in FXAA).
We have a forum thread for some nice shaders to try out here:

All UI percentage values (framerates, zoom) are saved incorrectly when the number ends with 0n (e.g. 105 is saved as 150, 307 is saved as 370, etc). The problem becomes apparent when these values are loaded from the ini file after restarting pcsx2.

* On multiarch system, force the search on 32bits library (/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu). Change previous compilation behavior on 64 bits system
- Before: cmake search lib in 64 bits dir (64 bits lib needed to be install) but the linker got the 32 bits lib under the hood.
+ now: cmake search lib in 32 bits dir (only 32 bits lib need to be install). The linker still get 32 bits lib. In others word, you need to install -dev:i386 package on debian/ubuntu system

Probably only of interest to testers (and me). Absolutely do NOT select the reference device even out of extreme morbid curiosity. It's not even very good at being a reference despite being slower than you can probably believe.

Now, a note about the actual issue. Destination alpha tests can be used on the GS as one of the workarounds for a lack of stencils. If you use a destination alpha test and leave alpha writing on, the GS will only write each pixel until you write an alpha value which would fail the test. This works to a point in gsdx without further hacking, but that point is when within a single batch of primitives the same pixels are written multiple times and the destination alpha test is expected to update. I did experimentally make a tight loop updating the stencil with a draw then drawing for one primitive at a time, but it was prohibitively slow (over 80% fps loss, you really don't want to know).
Destination alpha testing cannot be directly implemented in D3D9 or D3D10, but (probably) can in D3D11 (with a speed hit for sure, but I doubt it'll be 80%). I'll be getting a new graphics card and looking into that.
And before some idiot says it, the answer is no. OpenGL does not help.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@5346 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
This may make gsdx slightly slower for everyone (I don't know an easy way to restrict this to affected systems), especially if using 8-bit textures.

Explanation, because this gives me a headache and this might save someone else one (or I might be wrong and they might see why): in D3D10, 0.0 points to the centre of the leftmost texel and 1.0 points one texel to the right of the rightmost texel, so to map a UNORM uniformly across a texel we need to multiply the input by (w-1)/w. In D3D9 0.0 points to the left edge of the leftmost texel and 1.0 to the right edge of the rightmost texel so after the multiplication we add 1/2w.
Actual texture sampling is probably not right for at least one of D3D9 and D3D10, but this headache is killing me.

- Removed vcredist 2008-sp1 and 2010, added vcredist 2010 sp1.
- GSdx DLLs rename (+"32"), added avx.
- Version to 1.0.0.
- Uninstaller: bios removal now has own checkbox (can now remove everything and keep bios).
- Uninstaller: registry is cleaned first (better for next install in case uninstall fails for some reason).
TODO/ToTest:
- Test upgrade from 0.98, 0.97.
- Got few crashes and/or errors if files/folders were in use while uninstalling. Look into that.
- First install on a clean system: test that first-time-wizard appears (i didn't get the ftw, I possibly had stuff from previous incomplete uninstall).
- Add an option to run pcsx2 when the installer completes?
- readme/faq have "0.9.8" in filename, but the installer refers to <version>, check if/when it's used.
- Cheats folder created at program files. consider at mydocs?
- Cheats folder contains what appears to be a valid pnach file for personas 4 (inf health etc). do we want that packaged?
- Do we want to mirror vcredist 2010sp1 on pcsx2.code.google/files? (older redists are mirrored).
- Change the installer logo to the one used everywhere else?
- See if we can use the best gsdx version selected initially (my system supports sse4, but it selects the sse2 dll by default at ftw).
- Default KB config for lilypad? all other plugins can work without configuring manually, but without a controller configured, it's very meh. See what we can do about it.

- 14 Updated hacks, 41 new hacks (See full list at the first comment).
- New crc-hacks might have patial crc lists, so it's possible that some copies won't get the benefit (yet).
- Non crc-hacks code was NOT imported from Cutie, so some crc hacks might not be as effective as within Cutie itself.
- New region: CH, few more CRCs.
Note:
Due to the very big list of affected games, I couldn't test the vast majority of them, and so your help would be appreciated in testing. Please report (even if someone else already reported with the same result as yours) with the following format:
<game name> - <better/worse/same> (reason) - tested <little/medium/much>
e.g.:
Tomb Raider Legend - Better (removes garbage graphics) - tested a little.
GTA San Andreas - Better (removes ghosts) - tested a little.
And of course, big thank you goes to the author of Cutie, for the time put into improving PCSX2, and for respecting the GPL license and releasing the code.

Path3 Masking: Fixed a bug which caused persona 3 not to boot, previous a hack had been put in place to get around this.
VIF: Fixed a VIF error with the rare game Realta Nua, now goes through the prologue correctly. Game requires the EE timing hack to get rid of most of the noise (Path3 masking problem with new GIF unit, unfixable).

Another refinement to the Wild Arms hack by KrossX.
The hack now only applies to one kind of geometry (sent using the unpacked UV handler).
This works nicer in Wild Arms as it fixes "jumpy" characters.

Adding KrossX's Wild Arms text alignment hack to the new dialog box. This hack is actually very interesting for a number of games. It should work well in cases where game designers adjusted everything pixel perfect for the GS, that usually breaks with upscaling.

- 0: no multi-threading
- 1: gif packet processing and texture uploads run parallel with rendering, the slowest decides the fps, dual-cores can still suffer by the spin loops, I'll check that when I compile pcsx2 on my notebook
- 2: two rendering threads, on a decent cpu packet processing is going to be slower now, this is probably going to increase fps the most on quads
- 3: small fps increase
- 4+: even smaller.
If you have a quad cpu with HT, 6 is the max, 1 + 1 is needed for pcsx2 and gsdx's basic tasks.
Also hacked palette writes to not force a read-back in hw mode (added in previous rev), it hit render targets in a surprising large number of games.

A proper fix for this is not happening nor is it even desirable because of the performance impact it would have, the game seems to unintentionally rely on the RPC arguments remaining in cache until sceSifCallRpc. A slightly better patch is possible, this one eats some extra EE cycles and might theoretically make the game emulate at less than full speed (but probably won't in practice).

- Use float instead of int for the video framerate.
- Use 59.94 instead of 60 for the ntsc framerate.
This replaces a previous hackfix with a better one, but it's still not ideal.
The ideal solution for the video encoding side would be to use an actual fraction (60000/1001) and pass this fraction to the encoder.
The ideal solution for the gsdx side would be to deduce the real framerate from the timing parameters.

This toggles the turbo mode of the emulator, so users with pads don't have to reach out to the keyboard anymore when they want to switch between normal and turbo gameplay :)

I choose R3 for now since most games don't use that button. This could be made configurable in the future though.

See tools/dynacrchack/DynaCrcHack.c for full instructions.
For development of CRC hacks (and just for the fun of creating such a system), Allows GSdx to load and use CRC hack logic from an external DLL, and reload it, at runtime, whenever this DLL changes (but act normally if this DLL isn't found).
This external DLL is compiled from a single C source file (a sample is provided, containing the current MGS3 CRC hack logic). There's also a system to automatically compile this C file into the DLL whenever the C file is modified, thus creating a system of instant [save C file] -> [GSdx switches to the new logic].
It's actually a pretty cool system, and might have other usages where it's useful, for the sake of tests/development/tweaking, to modify code logic during runtime. The overhead of such system compared to pre-compiled code is very low (e.g., in the case of CRC hacks which are called thousands of times/sec, I couldn't notice any difference in performance).
Compilation of the C file is currently done using TCC (Tiny C Compiler - http://bellard.org/tcc/ - extremely fast, light and powerful). TCC itself needs to be downloaded separately (~250K download, no install required). The system currently supports Windows only.

Important: this is not a fix of the cause of the crashes, it just bypasses cases of sure crash. Once that spot is bypassed, things can go wrong elsewhere. Generally, however, things just continue normally. E.g. GT4 (camera changes), Tourist Trophy (camera changes), MGS3 (codec screen when CRC hacks are disabled) and probably more - now don't crash anymore, even at high resolution (but might still get some slowdowns).

* Vif: Altered how resumed transfers are handled slightly on VIF side (for MFIFO).
* SPR: Now transfers data to the MFIFO even if not in MFIFO mode if it meets the conditions of the ring buffer location (SOCOM 2)
SOCOM 2 is now playable, sort of, the HUD is a mess (unless a tip shows up), looks like Path3 masking but isn't.

Threading VU1 took a lot of rewrites and new code to make possible (MTGS, microVU, gifUnit...), but we finally got to the point where it was feasible, and now we've done it! (so now everyone can stop complaining that pcsx2 only takes advantages of 2 cores :p).
The speedups in the games that benefit from it are great if you have a cpu with 3+ cores (generally a 10~45% speedup), however games that are GS limited can be a slowdown (especially on dual core cpu's).
The option can be found in the speedhacks section as "MTVU (Multi-Threaded microVU1)". And when enabled it should should show the VU thread-time percentage on the title bar window (Like we currently do for EE/GS/UI threads).
It is listed as a speedhack because in order for threading VU1 to have been a speedup, we need to assume that games will not send gif packets containing Signal/Finish/Label commands from path 1 (vu1's xgkick). The good news is very-few games ever do this, so the compatibility of MTVU is very high (a game that does do this will likely hang).
Note: vs2010 builds and Linux builds need to be updated to include "MTVU.h" and "MTVU.cpp".

Refactored the ProLogicII code into a separate file and changed it to floating point math for easier debugging.
Added a basic ProLogic decoder that doesn't try to do surround separation into L/R.
The setting does not have a GUI option yet, since the PLII decoder is experimental and doesn't give too good results.
To change it, set DplDecodingLevel to one of: 0=none, 1=ProLogic, 2=ProLogicII. The default is 0.

On 4840 I added dynamic tuning (which may have slight negative effect on stability) to adapt to different iterations/sec of different systems, but I didn't like this system too much. On 4840 I also made a small change which, I now understand, factors out the differences between systems in this regard, essentially making dynamic tuning not required anymore. So now dynamic tuning is disabled.
If you enable the SPU2X messages (and the overrun messages), you would see log messages similar to this:
buffers: 44 ms ( 89%), tempo: 1.000000, comp: 1.000, iters: 764, (N-IPS:750 -> avg:50, minokc:50, div:100)
If the iters value (764 at this example) on your system when running at 100% speed (50/60fps) is higher than 1000 or lower than 500, then please comment here and post few of the log lines.

- Fixed a bug with mVU's ESIN implementation. This finally fixes the flower-petal bug in Radiata Stories (and hopefully the clouds-bug in VP2 but havn't tested). Rama and I have wanted to fix this for a long time, but never knew the problem :p
- Improved implementation of some undefined behavior that happens on branches to take into account pipeline stalls.
gif / vif:
- Added some logging code that parses gif packets. It can be enabled by the PRINT_GIF_PACKET macro in Gif.h
- Deleted some old gif code.
- On ReadFIFO_VIF1() clear the out-reg to prevent uninitialized results in case GSreadFIFO() doesn't modify it...
- Create a fallback for GSreadFIFO2() so that its always defined (as long as the plugin implements GSreadFIFO())
pcsx2:

1. Much better behavior at extreme low/high FPS (less skips/lower latency).
2. As a result, I was able to reduce internal latency by 50% (50ms config now equals 100ms before).
Recommended latency config for stretcher: 100ms.
For rhythm games, if your FPS is very stable, I recommend 50ms.

Summary of changes...
Fixed menus and HUD for Spyro: A New Beginning and Spyro: the Eternal Night.
Fixed missing dialogs and reduced the VRam usage a bit for Tales of Legendia ("8-bit textures" help a bit more with Vram/speed). Should be playable now in hardware mode. Thanks to rama for figuring it could be hackfixed this way and the initial patch :)
Half-screen fixes for Ty the Tasmanian Tiger 2, X-men Origins: Wolverine, Call of Duty: World at War - Final Fronts.
Modified the Star Wars: Force Unleashed hackfix a bit, shouldn't have the see-thru objects anymore.
Also modified the Metal Gear Solid 3 and Gran Turismo 4 hackfixes as they needed different skip values for each region (PAL/NTSC). Thanx to avih for the region code... and the free C/C++ lessons :P
The hackfix for Sly 3 was still showing stripes for 3-D and two-player modes, fixed for NTSC version now and hopefully works for PAL one too.

Pcsx2 now has a gifUnit class which acts like the ps2's gif and executes a single gif transfer at a time (and performs path arbitration according to priority and path3 slicing).
This new code is generally a speedup for most games. Particularly VU heavy games like GoW.
This revision breaks old saved state compatibility so don't update if you wish to keep playing with your old saved states.
Leave comments if this revision fixes or breaks anything...
Message to GS Plugin authors:
This new code now uses only 1 gif callback to transfer data to the gs plugin (GSgifTransfer).
pcsx2 also is garaunteed to send full GS primitives to the plugin. So you don't have to account for partial-transfers anymore.
Thanks goes out to shadowlady who tested around 500 games for me :D
Note 1: The old gif code is still in this revision, and can be enabled by the USE_OLD_GIF macro. The old code will be deleted soon.
Note 2: This revision also enables assertion dialogs in devel builds, and changed a lot of assume cases into assertions.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4821 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Should prevent erratic tempo variations near 100% speeds (compared to the previous implementation), and generally allow much lower latencies while keeping the audio stable (on all audio systems).
E.g. my tests show that at 70ms latency it can properly handle sharp speed variance of 50%-100%. If your game generally doesn't get slower than 70% speed, 50ms latency would probably be fine.
Note that on extreme scenarios (e.g. extreme sharp drops in speed) it doesn't try to keep the audio continues at all costs. If your game exhibits such behavior (audible clicks, etc), increasing the latency a bit at the config would help.
Comments on actual performance/quality on different systems would be greatly appreciated.

Before trying this revision, make sure your speakers/headphones are not too loud.
I have been looking at it for a long while, and I decided it couldn't be just "somewhat similar" to a Schroeder Reverberator.
The SPU2 designers would have actually used a working design for a reverberator, so chances are they implemented Schroeder's.
I haven't had the chance to test this code in spu2-x, but the results in the "Impulse Response Analyzer" tool I coded specifically for this, are positive.
Some tweaks might be needed, because I'm not sure if Neill got the IIR part right or not.

Details:
- It seems that due to legacy reasons, Lilypad is setting the current state at the GS window title, as a hack which is enabled by default (at Lilypad's main GUI tab). However, it's buggy because it only changes the display when (shift/)F2 is pressed, while the current slot actually also changes when loading/saving state via the PCSX2 main menu, so it can get out of sync (possibly with unpleasant results, especially when saving). Now it's disabled by default at Lilypad, and if enabled, displayed as "State(Lilypad)".
- PCSX2 itself now properly handles the current State slot at the GS title window.
Note: ZeroGS still changes its title independently (not via the "standard" PCSX2 mechanism) so Lilypad's title hack might still be useful for it. However, it's still buggy and can get still out of sync.
TODO: Remove this option completely from Lilypad because it's buggy? ZeroGS can still use it, but I think it can cause more harm than good. What do you think?

- Allow filtering setting for native resolution hardware rendering, as it's not tied to the resolution.
- Add ST / UV coordinate tweaking defines to more easily debug small rendering glitches.
- Add a define to bypass the hardware renderer texture cache. With this enabled, speed drops to slower than software rendering.
It fixes nearly all hardware rendering issues though and can be used to see how games *would* look if we had a new cache ;)

i18n: allow to translate a part of system default for the language selection.
Rational: In case system default is incorrect, we will still get an english part (with the unknow-language translation)

1/ Allow a resize of the render zone.
2/ Do not update title in fullscreen which create some flashes
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4591 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
gsdx: add a missing include (fix gcc-4.6). Force an init of sdl to allow in-emulation configuration
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4587 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Also a few changes for Tekken 5, "City at sunset" stage, hopefully there's nothing else wrong with this game anymore.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4585 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Hopefully allow less initial confusion (the CDVD plugin is not used by default and it will mostly stay that way, so disabled unless chosen).
Note: the Iso selector sub menu is always enabled because even when the Plugin is selected as source, selecting an ISO via the selector switches to the internal Iso reader.

He wrote his own, faster replacement for std::vector and used it for the EE and IOP block managers.
This cuts down compiling time for some blocks from nearly 1 second to ~ 0.1 - 0.3 seconds.
With this shorter compiling time, audio and framerate should be more stable when changing levels in a game, for example.
Thanks a bunch, Firnis ;)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@4572 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Also removed the effect in the burning temple stage which had thin lines over it when using high res.
GameDB: More updates ~_~

Blit convert format X -> format Y (needed for texture upload)
Blit copy / blend / modulate format X -> format X (needed for software renderer)
Create full software renderer for framebuffer interfaces.
Create texture for surface, keep surface around as pixel source, allow
copying / blending / modulating from surface to display (automatically
generate texture?)
At that point, should anyone be using anything besides textures for display?

[11:07pm] icculus: so we're clear, "textures" replace "surfaces" from 1.2 when you want to get stuff to the screen? So you have a definitely point where it stops being pixels in memory and starts being an object on the graphics card?
[11:07pm] icculus: Upload once, blit many
[11:07pm] icculus: something like that?
[11:07pm] slouken: That's the idea, yes
[11:07pm] icculus: ok, just making sure
[11:08pm] slouken: Many drivers retain the "texture" as a surface and blit to opaque bits which then get copied into a framebuffer.
[11:08pm] slouken: retain -> would retain
[11:08pm] icculus: yeah, I figured
[11:08pm] slouken: That's why the features for surface blitting need to match the features for texture display.
[11:08pm] icculus: But it gives an abstraction where the app has to make a conscious action: the upload is slow, but then the blit is fast.
[11:09pm] icculus: This couldn't just map to LockSurface, though?
[11:09pm] slouken: Yes, exactly. I wasn't sure whether to make that clear, e.g. can you display any surface, and automatically generate a texture (if necessary)?
[11:09pm] slouken: If not, it simplifies the framebuffer case.
[11:10pm] slouken: But even the framebuffer case will probably still want to convert the bits to the optimal format.
[11:10pm] slouken: And at that point, the non-optimal bits can be thrown away.
[11:11pm] slouken: e.g. SDL_DisplayFormat()
[11:10pm] icculus: oh, that's a good point.
[11:10pm] icculus: hmm
[11:11pm] icculus: yeah, okay
[11:11pm] icculus: I was thinking about if the separation is really necessary, or if LockSurface would imply a texture creation (and you just have much more strict locking requirements than most 1.2 targets had)
[11:11pm] slouken: That's also why I separated the conversion blits from the copy / blend / modulate blits.
[11:12pm] icculus: But I like that the app has to be conscious of when that's happening
[11:12pm] slouken: Yeah, I was really leaning towards making it implicit, but the memory savings is pretty significant for artwork.
[11:12pm] icculus: SDL_compat can wrap the difference for people that can't get their head around it.
[11:13pm] icculus: At the performance cost, that can be a totally external layer that manages it like 1.2's locking.
[11:13pm] slouken: Well, SDL_compat is entirely software on top of a single texture that represents the screen.
[11:14pm] slouken: Yeah, that's the way it's implemented right now.
[11:14pm] slouken: a HWSURFACE is one that is backed by a texture, and lock/unlock is used to synchronize the bits.
[11:14pm] slouken: I'm not sure if that's worth keeping though, if SDL_compat is software only.
[11:15pm] slouken: It would minimize code migration though.
[11:15pm] icculus: yeah
[11:15pm] icculus: I expect SDL_compat to be a complete cesspool
[11:15pm] icculus: just a black box that no one touches or looks at more than necessary
[11:15pm] slouken: more or less, but it's actually pretty clean right now... I think as a side effect of the new API being pretty clean.
[11:15pm] slouken: I'm just unsure how much to use texture vs HWSURFACE
[11:16pm] icculus: Besides, you'd be surprised how quickly you can get people to move if you flag functions as deprecated so that GCC bitches when you use them.
[11:16pm] slouken:
[11:16pm] icculus: how much to use texture vs HWSURFACE in 1.3, or in SDL_compat?
[11:16pm] slouken: in 1.3
[11:17pm] icculus: Pick one or the other, I would say.
[11:17pm] icculus: I don't think it's good to confuse people with both terms
[11:17pm] slouken: yeah
[11:17pm] icculus: Everything is software until it's a texture.
[11:17pm] slouken: I'm just not sure which
[11:17pm] slouken: that's certainly cleanest.
[11:18pm] slouken: and what's currently implemented
[11:18pm] slouken: Let's think through the migration process...
[11:18pm] icculus: Plus dropping the term HWSURFACE gets the point across that a) this isn't 1.2 and b) this is probably going to a 3D api that you should be using anyhow.
[11:18pm] • slouken nods
[11:18pm] icculus: I mean, "texture" is what every API calls these things
[11:18pm] slouken: Yep
[11:19pm] slouken: So let's work through a migration case...
[11:19pm] icculus: ok
[11:19pm] slouken: FooBall loads a big background and a bunch of sprites. They are png, loaded into SDL_Surface with SDL_image, then converted with SDL_DisplayFormat()
[11:20pm] slouken: Then the background is blitted every frame and the sprites are blended on top.
[11:20pm] slouken: In the compat case:
[11:21pm] slouken: SDL_SetVideoMode() creates a single lockable texture for the display. DisplayFormat() converts the bits into the optimal format, all blitting is done in software, and SDL_UpdateRects() pushes the bits into the texture and the texture is rendered.
[11:21pm] slouken: In the 1.3 case:
[11:22pm] slouken: The background and sprites are converted to textures using SDL_CreateTextureFromSurface(), and the appropriate blending flags are set. Each frame copies the textures into place and then the display is presented.
[11:23pm] slouken: compat is software only, 1.3 can be 3D accelerated.
[11:23pm] icculus: wait, why does all blitting have to be done in software in the SDL_compat case?
[11:23pm] icculus: I don't understand why SDL_compat can't move things between surfaces and textures at Lock/Unlock time
[11:24pm] slouken: Because by default the screen isn't created with HWSURFACE, since apps expect to be able to munge the bits. Therefore, the blits to it have to be done locally.
[11:24pm] icculus: And all the surfaces are flagged HWSURFACE, so ->pixels is NULL until locked.
[11:24pm] icculus: oh
[11:24pm] icculus: It wasn't possible to have a HWSURFACE screen?
[11:25pm] slouken: Yes, it was, just nobody did it because alpha blending needs to read from video memory, and poking pixels across the bus is slow.
[11:25pm] slouken: Even in 1.3, the Xlib case needs to be software renderer if you want to do any alpha blending.
[11:26pm] icculus: But arguably there's no reason that can't all be HWSURFACE (that is, they need to get moved to a texture, even if that's still a software renderer on the backend)
[11:26pm] icculus: That sounds like it's only a problem when an app touches SDL_GetVideoSurface()->pixels without checking if they should lock it.
[11:26pm] icculus: Which might be quite common
[11:27pm] slouken: Yep, in 1.2 the app was able to specify it, and most explicitly don't because it's either not available or bad for alpha blending and direct pixel poking.
[11:27pm] icculus: hmm.
[11:28pm] slouken: You see why I've been going round and round for months on this?
[11:28pm] icculus: Well, we're talking about a compatibility layer; if it's going to crash without LockSurface() on the screen, make them lock it. If that makes it slow, so be it.
[11:29pm] icculus: The options are make small changes and take a performance hit, or make bigger changes and get a big performance win.
[11:29pm] icculus: (if touching the framebuffer directly, that is)
[11:29pm] slouken: Well, at that point it's a compatibility layer, why not just leave it software? (devil's advocate here)
[11:29pm] icculus: That's a good point.
[11:30pm] slouken: Unless we leave everything surfaces to get the best of both worlds...
[11:30pm] • slouken gets dizzy
[11:30pm] icculus: From a technical elegance viewpoint, I can see a good mapping between HWSURFACE and textures, but realistically, you want to motivate people to move away from old APIs.
[11:31pm] slouken: Yeah probably. There's a certain attraction to retaining the SDL_Surface usage even for hardware surfaces, simply because of code reuse. You don't have to have separate code for your software composition and your rendering. You also get to keep your old image loading code, etc.
[11:31pm] icculus: man, this really is a pain in the ass, I see what you mean.
[11:32pm] slouken: Yeah.
[11:32pm] icculus: hmm, let me think on this awhile.
[11:32pm] slouken: On the other hand, separating the Texture API for rendering is clearer and allows extension in the future.
[11:32pm] slouken: We could potentially allow you to create a software renderer pointed at an SDL surface....
[11:32pm] slouken: Hmmm
[11:33pm] icculus: well, that's what you have now for something like Doom
[11:33pm] icculus: you render to a shadow surface, and throw a hail-mary with SDL_Flip()
[11:34pm] slouken: Yep. I mean a 1.3 "renderer" with an SDL_Surface or another texture as the target.
[11:34pm] icculus: More or less, that doesn't change. The only important thing there is not generating a new texture every time, but being able to discard what's currently in it for a fresh upload.
[11:34pm] slouken: Yep
[11:34pm] icculus: oh, I see
[11:35pm] icculus: render-to-surface
[11:35pm] slouken: lol
[11:35pm] slouken: yeah
[11:36pm] slouken: So... where to draw the line with surface vs texture...
[11:37pm] icculus: I don't know, I would think that basically you want to get out of surfaces as fast as possible
[11:37pm] icculus: (disregarding SDL_compat for the moment)
[11:37pm] slouken: Yeah, I think so.
[11:37pm] slouken: Load the bits up, throw them into a texture, and go
[11:37pm] icculus: And basically all you really need for that is an "upload" function.
[11:38pm] slouken: Yep
[11:38pm] icculus: I'd even be inclined to not allow "Locking," so there's no readback.
[11:38pm] icculus: well, I'm sure that would cause a fight
[11:38pm] • slouken thinks
[11:40pm] slouken: Let me see where I use SDL_LockTexture() right now.
[11:42pm] slouken: The only time that's useful is to avoid a buffer copy when you're already writing the bits in the correct format.
[11:42pm] slouken: e.g. lock -> software render into bits -> unlock (upload)
[11:43pm] slouken: that may already be taken care of by the upload though.
[11:43pm] slouken: e.g. software render into bits -> upload
[11:44pm] slouken: Oh yeah, there's probably a memory copy of the bits though, so it's: upload = copy into cached bits, copy cached bits to video memory as needed. In that case if you lock to get access to the cached bits directly that's a win.
[11:44pm] icculus: ah, okay
[11:47pm] icculus: I don't know, my head hurts.
[11:47pm] slouken: Yeah, mine too.
[11:47pm] slouken: I was pretty happy with the current setup until I noticed that it's really hard to write a framebuffer driver right now.
[11:49pm] slouken: I think maybe if I clean that up and separate conversion blit and copy / blend / modulate blit, then it may work pretty cleanly.
[11:49pm] icculus: yeah
[11:54pm] slouken: So recapping... SDL_Surface is only used for loading and app composition.
[11:55pm] slouken: SDL surface blitting is enhanced to maintain parity with the renderer features, since it's used as the core of the software renderer.
[11:56pm] slouken: The software renderer is adapted to be a standalone module targeting either an SDL_Surface or an SDL_Texture.
[11:56pm] slouken: SDL_HWSURFACE goes away
[11:57pm] slouken: Anything I'm missing?
[11:58pm] icculus: no, sounds good
[11:58pm] slouken: This means we have the new 1.3 texture API pretty much as it stands.
[11:59pm] slouken: Right?
[11:59pm] icculus: yeah, I think so
[12:00am] slouken: I was trying to see if it was possible to make a pluggable blit API, but I was going insane with trying to figure out how to make it fast.
[12:01am] slouken: If it were software only I could just say, write your own and register it here, but you'd have to maintain parity with the OpenGL and Direct3D renderers as well.
[12:01am] slouken: At that point you might as well be working in surfaces and uploading to texture.
[12:02am] icculus: yeah
TODO
----
Change textures to static/streaming. Static textures are not lockable,
streaming textures are lockable and may have system memory pixels available.
SDL_compat will use a streaming video texture, and will never be HWSURFACE,
but may be PREALLOC, if system memory pixels are available.
*** DONE Thu Aug 16 14:18:42 PDT 2007
The software renderer will be abstracted so the surface management can be
used by any renderer that provides functions to copy surfaces to the window.
Blitters...
----
Copy blit and fill rect are optimized with MMX and SSE now.
Here are the pieces we still need:
- Merging SDL texture capabilities into the SDL surface system
1. Copy the android-project directory wherever you want to keep your projects and rename it to the name of your project.
2. Move this SDL directory into the <project>/jni directory
3. Place your application source files in the <project>/jni/src directory
4. Edit <project>/jni/src/Android.mk to include your source files
5. Run 'ndk-build' (a script provided by the NDK). This compiles the C source
If you want to use the Eclipse IDE, skip to the Eclipse section below.
6. Edit <project>/local.properties to point to the Android SDK directory
7. Run 'ant debug' in android/project. This compiles the .java and eventually
creates a .apk with the native code embedded
8. 'ant install' will push the apk to the device or emulator (if connected)
Here's an explanation of the files in the Android project, so you can customize them:
android-project/
AndroidManifest.xml - package manifest, do not modify
build.properties - empty
build.xml - build description file, used by ant
default.properties - holds the ABI for the application, currently android-4 which corresponds to the Android 1.6 system image
local.properties - holds the SDK path, you should change this to the path to your SDK
jni/ - directory holding native code
jni/Android.mk - Android makefile that includes all subdirectories
jni/SDL/ - directory holding the SDL library files
jni/SDL/Android.mk - Android makefile for creating the SDL shared library
jni/src/ - directory holding your C/C++ source
jni/src/Android.mk - Android makefile that you should customize to include your source code and any library references
res/ - directory holding resources for your application
res/drawable-* - directories holding icons for different phone hardware
res/layout/main.xml - place holder for the main screen layout, overridden by the SDL video output
res/values/strings.xml - strings used in your application, including the application name shown on the phone.
src/org/libsdl/app/SDLActivity.java - the Java class handling the initialization and binding to SDL. Be very careful changing this, as the SDL library relies on this implementation.
The documentation in the NDK docs directory is very helpful in understanding the build process and how to work with native code on the Android platform.
and then paste in the number after "pc" in the call stack, from the line that I care about:
000014bc
I get output from addr2line showing that it's in the quit function, in testspriteminimal.c, on line 23.
You can add logging to your code to help show what's happening:
#include <android/log.h>
__android_log_print(ANDROID_LOG_INFO, "foo", "Something happened! x = %d", x);
If you need to build without optimization turned on, you can create a file called "Application.mk" in the jni directory, with the following line in it:
SDL Provides an implementation of the $1 gesture recognition system. This allows for recording, saving, loading, and performing single stroke gestures.
Gestures can be performed with any number of fingers (the centroid of the fingers must follow the path of the gesture), but the number of fingers must be constant (a finger cannot go down in the middle of a gesture). The path of a gesture is considered the path from the time when the final finger went down, to the first time any finger comes up.
Dollar gestures are assigned an Id based on a hash function. This is guaranteed to remain constant for a given gesture. There is a (small) chance that two different gestures will be assigned the same ID. In this case, simply re-recording one of the gestures should result in a different ID.
Recording:
----------
To begin recording on a touch device call:
SDL_RecordGesture(SDL_TouchID touchId), where touchId is the id of the touch device you wish to record on, or -1 to record on all connected devices.
Recording terminates as soon as a finger comes up. Recording is acknowledged by an SDL_DOLLARRECORD event.
A SDL_DOLLARRECORD event is a dgesture with the following fields:
event.dgesture.touchId - the Id of the touch used to record the gesture.
event.dgesture.gestureId - the unique id of the recoreded gesture.
Performing:
-----------
As long as there is a dollar gesture assigned to a touch, every finger-up event will also cause an SDL_DOLLARGESTURE event with the following fields:
event.dgesture.touchId - the Id of the touch which performed the gesture.
event.dgesture.gestureId - the unique id of the closest gesture to the performed stroke.
event.dgesture.error - the difference between the gesture template and the actual performed gesture. Lower error is a better match.
event.dgesture.numFingers - the number of fingers used to draw the stroke.
Most programs will want to define an appropriate error threshold and check to be sure taht the error of a gesture is not abnormally high (an indicator that no gesture was performed).
Saving:
-------
To save a template, call SDL_SaveDollarTemplate(gestureId, src) where gestureId is the id of the gesture you want to save, and src is an SDL_RWops pointer to the file where the gesture will be stored.
To save all currently loaded templates, call SDL_SaveAllDollarTemplates(src) where source is an SDL_RWops pointer to the file where the gesture will be stored.
Both functions return the number of gestures sucessfully saved.
Loading:
--------
To load templates from a file, call SDL_LoadDollarTemplates(touchId,src) where touchId is the id of the touch to load to (or -1 to load to all touch devices), and src is an SDL_RWops pointer to a gesture save file.
SDL_LoadDollarTemplates returns the number of templates sucessfully loaded.
Requirements: Mac OS X v10.5 or later and the iPhone SDK.
Instructions:
1. Open SDLiPhoneOS.xcodeproj (located in Xcode-iPhoneOS/SDL) in XCode.
2. Set Project->Set Active SDK to "Use Project Settings"
3. Select your desired target, and hit build.
There are three build targets:
- StaticLibiPhoneOS:
Build SDL as a statically linked (armv6) library for iPhone OS 2.0.
- StaticLibSimulator:
Build SDL as a statically linked (x86) library for the iPhone Simulator
- Template:
Package a project template together with the SDL for iPhone static libraries and copies of the SDL headers. The template includes proper references to the SDL library and headers, skeleton code for a basic SDL program, and placeholder graphics for the application icon and startup screen.
1. Build the SDL libraries (libSDLiPhoneOS.a and libSDLSimulator.a) and the iPhone SDL Application template.
1. Install the iPhone SDL Application template by copying it to one of XCode's template directories. I recommend creating a directory called "SDL" in "/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/Library/XCode/Project Templates/" and placing it there.
2. Start a new project using the template. The project should be immediately ready for use with SDL.
Here is a more manual method:
1. Create a new iPhone view based application.
2. Build the SDL static libraries (libSDLiPhoneOS.a and libSDLSimulator.a) for iPhone and include them in your project. XCode will ignore the library that is not currently of the correct architecture, hence your app will work both on iPhone and in the iPhone Simulator.
3. Include the SDL header files in your project.
4. Remove the ApplicationDelegate.h and ApplicationDelegate.m files -- SDL for iPhone provides its own UIApplicationDelegate. Remove MainWindow.xib -- SDL for iPhone produces its user interface programmatically.
5. Delete the contents of main.m and program your app as a regular SDL program instead. You may replace main.m with your own main.c, but you must tell XCode not to use the project prefix file, as it includes Objective-C code.
SDL for iPhone supports polling the built in accelerometer as a joystick device. For an example on how to do this, see the accelerometer.c in the demos directory.
The main thing to note when using the accelerometer with SDL is that while the iPhone natively reports accelerometer as floating point values in units of g-force, SDL_JoystickGetAxis reports joystick values as signed integers. Hence, in order to convert between the two, some clamping and scaling is necessary on the part of the iPhone SDL joystick driver. To convert SDL_JoystickGetAxis reported values BACK to units of g-force, simply multiply the values by SDL_IPHONE_MAX_GFORCE / 0x7FFF.
Your SDL application for iPhone uses OpenGL ES for video by default.
OpenGL ES for iPhone supports several display pixel formats, such as RGBA8 and RGB565, which provide a 32 bit and 16 bit color buffer respectively. By default, the implementation uses RGB565, but you may use RGBA8 by setting each color component to 8 bits in SDL_GL_SetAttribute.
If your application doesn't use OpenGL's depth buffer, you may find significant performance improvement by setting SDL_GL_DEPTH_SIZE to 0.
Finally, if your application completely redraws the screen each frame, you may find significant performance improvement by setting the attribute SDL_GL_RETAINED_BACKING to 1.
SDL for iPhone contains several additional functions related to keyboard visibility. These functions are not part of the SDL standard API, but are necessary for revealing and hiding the iPhone's virtual onscreen keyboard. You can use them in your own applications by including a copy of the SDL_uikitkeyboard.h header (located in src/video/uikit) in your project.
int SDL_iPhoneKeyboardShow(SDL_Window * window)
-- reveals the onscreen keyboard. Returns 0 on success and -1 on error.
int SDL_iPhoneKeyboardHide(SDL_Window * window)
-- hides the onscreen keyboard. Returns 0 on success and -1 on error.
Each application installed on iPhone resides in a sandbox which includes its own Application Home directory. Your application may not access files outside this directory.
Once your application is installed its directory tree looks like:
MySDLApp Home/
MySDLApp.app
Documents/
Library/
Preferences/
tmp/
When your SDL based iPhone application starts up, it sets the working directory to the main bundle (MySDLApp Home/MySDLApp.app), where your application resources are stored. You cannot write to this directory. Instead, I advise you to write document files to "../Documents/" and preferences to "../Library/Preferences".
More information on this subject is available here:
Full-size, single window applications only. You cannot create multi-window SDL applications for iPhone OS. The application window will fill the display, though you have the option of turning on or off the menu-bar (pass SDL_CreateWindow the flag SDL_WINDOW_BORDERLESS). Presently, landscape mode is not supported.
Video:
For real time frame-rates, you are advised to use strictly SDL 1.3 video calls. Using compatibility video calls uploads an OpenGL texture for each frame drawn, and this operation is excruciatingly slow.
Textures:
SDL for iPhone Textures supports only SDL_PIXELFORMAT_ABGR8888 and SDL_PIXELFORMAT_RGB24 pixel formats. This is because texture support in SDL for iPhone is done through OpenGL ES, which supports fewer pixel formats than OpenGL, will not re-order pixel data for you, and has no support for color-paletted formats (without extensions).
Audio:
SDL for iPhone does not yet support audio input.
Loading Shared Objects:
This is disabled by default since it seems to break the terms of the iPhone SDK agreement. It can be re-enabled in SDL_config_iphoneos.h.
The linux touch system is currently based off event streams, and proc/bus/devices. The active user must be given permissions to read /dev/input/TOUCHDEVICE, where TOUCHDEVICE is the event stream for your device. Currently only Wacom tablets are supported. If you have an unsupported tablet contact me at jim.tla+sdl_touch@gmail.com and I will help you get support for it.
Mac:
The Mac and Iphone API's are pretty. If your touch device supports them then you'll be fine. If it doesn't, then there isn't much we can do.
iPhone:
Works out of box.
Windows:
Unfortunately there is no windows support as of yet. Support for Windows 7 is planned, but we currently have no way to test. If you have a Windows 7 WM_TOUCH supported device, and are willing to help test please contact me at jim.tla+sdl_touch@gmail.com
Which give, respectively, the maximum and minumum values that the touch digitizer can return for pressure, x coordiniate, and y coordinate AS REPORTED BY THE OPERATING SYSTEM.
On Mac/iPhone systems _max will always be 0, and _min will always be 1.
>native_xres,native_yres,native_pressureres:
The native resolution of the touch device AS REPORTED BY THE OPERATING SYSTEM.
On Mac/iPhone systems these will always be 1.
>num_fingers:
The number of fingers currently down on the device.
>fingers:
An array of pointers to the fingers which are on the device.
The most common reason to access a touch device is to normalize inputs. This would be accomplished by code like the following:
if(inTouch == NULL) continue; //The touch has been removed
float x = ((float)event.tfinger.x)/inTouch->xres;
float y = ((float)event.tfinger.y)/inTouch->yres;
To get an SDL_Finger, call SDL_GetFinger(touch,fingerId), where touch is a pointer to an SDL_Touch device, and fingerId is the id of the requested finger.
This returns an SDL_Finger*, or null if the finger does not exist, or has been removed.
An SDL_Finger is guaranteed to be persistent for the duration of a touch, but it will be de-allocated as soon as the finger is removed. This occurs when the SDL_FINGERUP event is _added_ to the event queue, and thus _before_ the FINGERUP event is polled.
As a result, be very careful to check for null return values.
An SDL_Finger has the following fields:
>x,y,pressure:
The current coordinates of the touch.
>xdelta,ydelta:
The change in position resulting from the last finger motion.

You can either use the precompiled libraries from <AHREF="http://www.libsdl.org/download.php">
the SDL Download web site </A>, or you can build SDL yourself.
</p>
<H3>
Building SDL
</H3>
<P>
Go into the VisualC directory and double-click on the VC++ file "<CODE>SDL.dsw</CODE>" <STRONG><FONTcolor="#009900">("<CODE>SDL.sln</CODE>")</FONT></STRONG>. This should open up the IDE.
</P>
<P>
You may be prompted at this point to upgrade the workspace, should you be using
a more recent version of Visual C++. If so, allow the workspace to be upgraded.
</P>
<P>
Build the <CODE>.dll</CODE> and <CODE>.lib</CODE> files.
</P>
<P>
This is done by right clicking on each project in turn (Projects are listed in
the Workspace panel in the FileView tab), and selecting "Build".
</P>
<P>
If you get an error about SDL_config.h being missing, you should
copy include/SDL_config.h.default to include/SDL_config.h and try again.
</P>
<P>
You may get a few warnings, but you should not get any errors. You do have to
have at least the DirectX 5 SDK installed, however. The latest
version of DirectX can be downloaded or purchased on a cheap CD (my
recommendation) from <AHREF="http://www.microsoft.com">Microsoft </A>.
</P>
<P>
Later, we will refer to the following .lib and .dll files that have just been
generated:
</P>
<ul>
<li> SDL.dll</li>
<li> SDL.lib</li>
<li> SDLmain.lib</li>
</ul>
<P>
Search for these using the Windows Find (Windows-F) utility, if you don't
already know where they should be. For those of you with a clue, look inside
the Debug or Release directories of the subdirectories of the Project folder.
(It might be easier to just use Windows Find if this sounds confusing. And
don't worry about needing a clue; we all need visits from the clue fairy
frequently.)

<H3>
Creating a Project with SDL
</H3>
<P>
Create a project as a Win32 Application.
</P>
<P>
Create a C++ file for your project.
</P>
<P>
Set the C runtime to "Multi-threaded DLL" in the menu: <CODE>Project|Settings|C/C++
tab|Code Generation|Runtime Library </CODE>.
</P>
<P>
Add the SDL <CODE>include</CODE> directory to your list of includes in the
menu: <CODE>Project|Settings|C/C++ tab|Preprocessor|Additional include directories </CODE>
.
<br>
<STRONG><FONTcolor="#009900">VC7 Specific: Instead of doing this I find it easier to
add the include and library directories to the list that VC7 keeps. Do this by
selecting Tools|Options|Projects|VC++ Directories and under the "Show
Directories For:" dropbox select "Include Files", and click the "New Directory
Icon" and add the [SDLROOT]\include directory (ex. If you installed to
c:\SDL-1.2.5\ add c:\SDL-1.2.5\include). Proceed to change the
dropbox selection to "Library Files" and add [SDLROOT]\lib.</FONT></STRONG>
</P>
<P>
The "include directory" I am referring to is the <CODE>include</CODE> folder
within the main SDL directory (the one that this HTML file located within).
</P>
<P>
Now we're going to use the files that we had created earlier in the Build SDL
step.
</P>
<P>
Copy the following files into your Project directory:
</P>
<ul>
<li> SDL.dll</li>
</ul>
<P>
Add the following files to your project (It is not necessary to copy them to
your project directory):
</P>
<ul>
<li> SDL.lib </li>
<li> SDLmain.lib</li>
</ul>
<P>
(To add them to your project, right click on your project, and select "Add
files to project")
</P>
<P><STRONG><FONTcolor="#009900">Instead of adding the files to your project it is more
desireable to add them to the linker options: Project|Properties|Linker|Command
Line and type the names of the libraries to link with in the "Additional
Options:" box. Note: This must be done for each build
Some files were not shown because too many files have changed in this diff
