- reduced raster bloom level to 8
- extended vector bloom level to 15
- changed vector bloom to be less blocky
- removed bloom_lvl9_weight and bloom_lvl10_weight options
- options are reset to loaded preset when game is closed
- changed default values of options to result in no effects activated
- init_slider_list() does not returns but sets g_slider_list directly
- removed unnecessary oriented_vector_texcoords
- implemented proper texture coordinates for vector quad primitive
- vector screen is now processed in texture coordinates
- revered workaround for raster screen, which is again processed in
texture coordinates
- known issue: cocktail mode for vector screen looks wrong
- calculation of bloom dimensions is now done only once, when render
target is created
- reduced blur width for non-vector screens
- implemented shadow u/v option for source tile mode
- added shadow mask type option to choose between "Screen" and "Source"
tile mode ("Screen" is the default as before)
- added bloom type option to choose between "Addition" and "Darken"
blend mode ("Addition" is the default as before)
- the alpha channel of a shadow mask is now filled with the background
color of the screen by the amount of the inverted alpha value
- added monochrome-matrix.png which can be used in combination with
"Source" tile mode and "Darken" blend mode to simulate a STN LCD, for
example
- added experimental bloom overdrive effect and options, this effect
allows to overdrive pure colors like red, green and blue to become more
brighter
- added lcd.ini to parse_standard_inis()
- added distortion pass, which is applied after the bloom pass
- moved vignetting, curvature, round corners and reflection effect to
distortion pass
- disabled distortion pass for multi screens and activated artworks due
to not yet fixed misalignments
- disabled scanlines for vector rendering in post pass shader
- removed prescale knowledge from downsample, bloom and post pass shader
- fixed half pixel offset in most shaders
- fixed position of reflection effect when screen is rotated or flipped
- fixed roundness of round corners in any aspect ratio
- fixed shadow mask bleeding (nearly completly)
- added bounds() and screen_bounds() getter to layout_view
- added current_view() getter to render_target
- some cleanup and refactoring
- removed position offset in post.fx
- fixed texture offset caused by 0th level of bloom.fx
- fixed texture offset caused by focus.fx
- changed Passthrough parameter in phosphor.fx to boolean
- simplified defocus pass function and calling it twice
- removed CU_PHOSPHOR_IGNORE (Passthrough) uniform, which was only used
in phosphor pass function and is now directly set
- added CU_TARGET_DIMS (TargetDims) uniform based on the current render
target
- fixed missing Prescal parameter in downsample pass function
- some code cleanup
- separated downsample pass and bloom pass into two function calls
- removed/replaced simple.fx by using primary.fx to render on screen
- changed PostPass parameter of primary.fx to boolean
- simplified bloom.fx and downsample.fx, Prescale parameter is now set
correctly from outside depending on raster/vector rendering
- changed shadow mask implementation, shadow count XY now represent the
number of pixel the shadow UV sized tiles will take on the screen
- implemented rotation of the shadow mask texture depending on the
default landscape or portrait view of the screen
- removed prescale and pixel border of the shadow mask texture
- added option to change the shadow UV offset, to reduce the color
bleeding of the shadow mask
- adjusted presets to work with the changed mask implementation
- reduced defocus offset
- improved downsampling for better blurring
- improved alignment of bloom layers (raster and vector)
- applied bloom effect to the render output of screenshot and AVI
recording
- changed curvature effect to fit screen size
- changed scanlines to be not rendered into bloom layers
- changed shadow mask to be not rendered into bloom layers
- changed color floor to not light the bloom layers
- changed shadow mask to not dark the color floor
- added image vignetting simulation and option
- added round screen corner simulation and option
- added screen light reflection simulation and option
- made usage of unused brightness offset (additive)
- removed unused pincushion option
- removed duplicate shadow count Y options
- removed artwork/adapture.png
- added artwork/adapture-grill.png
- added artwork/shadow-mask.png
- added artwork/slot-mask.png
- added hlsl/simple.fx
- removed unused shaders::blit() function
- added shaders::screen_pass() function, which handles the
(raster-)rendering on screen, into screenshot and AVI recording
- added effect:set_bool() function
- HLSL changes: [MooglyGuy]
* Upped vertex buffer size to 64k verts, fixes assert in
starwars and alphaone, please include the printed error
message in any subsequent encounterings of the assert.
* Improved vector rendering (beam width 1.5 suggested)
* Ducked raster bloom default to 0.225 to reduce washout
openly, for there was nothing left to see with" [MooglyGuy]
* Enabled vector bloom and associated .ini controls
* Added raster bloom and associated .ini controls, each bloom "level" is the
linear weight of successively half-sized render targets
* Removed D3D8 mode
* Mass renaming in D3D renderer to use namespaces, initial planning step to
HAL-based renderer implementation on Windows (i.e., GL on Windows)
* Converted d3d_info, d3d_poly_info, and d3d_texture_info into classes
* Added batching of vectors for possible speed increase
* Minor cleanup of shader state setting
