- color converge is now independent from ratio
- the radial converge now "translates" the most outer pixel as thay
would be translated by the linar converge with the same amount
- color converge is now limited to a maximum of 10
- added color converge pass to vector rendering
- 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
- Fixed set_vector functionality and simplified shaders as a result
- Fixed HLSL presets, 0 to 3, in increasing level of terribleness
- Reduced options footprint from RGB triplets
Next plan: Separate INI writing.
Attempting to fix the HLSL 'blurriness' reported by a few people. Now HLSL will auto-prescale to the nearest texture size that is greater than the target screen size on both axes and is also an even multiple of the raw bitmap's size.
- Added the ability to render screenshots at arbitrary resolutions.
- Added the ability to record AVI videos (albeit with no audio) at arbitrary resolutions.
- Added a 43-tap-wide FIR-based NTSC filter with tunable Y, I and Q frequency response.
- Updated scanlines to have a user-tunable pixel-height ratio in addition to the current screen-height ratio.
- Fixed a VRAM leak that was causing many dynamic-resolution drivers to run out of memory mid-run.
- Switched to point-sampling through most of the shader chain to avoid non-intentional pixel smearing
- Corrected alignment and scaling on the shadow mask and scanlines; dramatically reduces rainbow banding at non-oversampled resolutions.
- Potential fix for some crashing reported by John IV
- Split color convolution and deconvergence into separate shaders for potential GPU savings down the line
- Added light and heavy variants of the color convolution shader, the former with YIQ colorspace removed
- Re-worked defocus to occur prior to shadow mask application, as it would be on a real monitor.
- Removed Edge Detection, as it was just for fun and can easily be added in by users if desired.
- Split "pincushion" into "Pincushion" and "Screen Curvature", the former affecting the only the displayed image and the latter only affecting the shadow mask.
