If an OpenGL object is created, bound to a binding using the state
tracker, and then destroyed, a newly created object can be assigned the
same numeric handle by OpenGL. However, even though it is a new object,
and thus needs to be bound to the binding again, the state tracker
compared the current and previous handles and concluded that no change
needed to be made, leading to failure to bind objects in certain cases.
This manifested as broken text in VVVVVV, which this commit fixes along
with similar texturing problems in other games.
This gives a ~2/3 reduction in the amount of vertices that need to be
processed through the vertex loaders and the vertex shader, yielding a
good speedup.
Some disabled debugging functionality was being called from rendering
routines in VideoCore. Although disabled, many of them still allocated
memory or did some extra work that was enough to show up in a profiler.
Gives a slight (~2ms) speedup.
If an input attribute array had a field with less than 4 components, the
remaining components were left unset if not specified by a default
vertex attribute. If neither mechanism would set a component, it would
assume a garbage value.
It has been verified that the hardware behavior is to instead to set the
missing components from the fixed default of (0 0 0 1). The default
vertex attribute values aren't used at all if a vertex array is
specified for that attribute.
Fixes UI graphics on Fire Emblem: Awakening, a small texturing glitch
when selecting a character in Cubic Ninja, as well as eliminating the
unset-W hack which was required for Ocarina of Time to not have
garbled triangles.
This change has been tested against hardware.
During testing, it was discovered that hardware does not interpolate
colors output by the vertex shader as-is. Rather, it drops the sign and
saturates the value to 1.0. This is done before interpolation, such that
(e.g.) interpolating outputs 1.5 and -0.5 is equivalent to as if the
shader had output the values 1.0 and 0.5 instead, with the interpolated
value never crossing 0.0.
This change has been tested against hardware.
* IncomingDisplayTransfer: Triggered just before a display transfer is performed.
* GSPCommandProcessed: Triggered right after a GSP command is processed.
* BufferSwapped: Triggered when the frames flip
In OpenGL 3, texturing is always enabled, and this call is invalid.
While it produced no effect in the rest of the execution, it wouldn't
have the intended effect of disabling texturing for that unit. Instead
bind a null texture to the unit.
This really should be universalized, I keep getting errors creating
commits because lines I've edited use tabs instead of spaces(and yes I
did read the contributing guide and i know they are supposed to be
spaces)
