• NOTE: In this revision (possibly earlier), I've started to notice some intermittent geometry glitches in Spikeout and slowdown while playing certain characters.
• Added multi-texture fragment shader to repo.
• Added a multiTexture option (enabled by default) to use multi-texturing to decode textures.
• Added some comments regarding timing to the PowerPC execution loop.

• Updated fragment shaders' floating point comparisons and also some knock-on changes from SVN revision 246.
• This line, and those below, will be ignored--
  • Shaders/Fragment_Flat.glsl
  • Shaders/Fragment_NoSpotlight.glsl

• Added OSD/Video.h to provide OSD-dependent video functionality.  The static functions in here get called by Model3.cpp from within the render thread so that any OSD related rendering can also be run in parallel for a further speed increase.
• Updated OSD/SDL/Main.cpp to provide the SDL implementations of the functions in OSD/Video.h.

• Added support for multiple texture sheets (with up to one per Model 3 texture format) as a rather brute-force way to handle overlapping texture formats in the current 3D engine.  This fixes some corrupt textures in Daytona 2 and Virtua Striker 2 (and possibly other games) and also offers a small speed increase when some scenes load multiple overlapping textures.
• This feature only enables itself when a compatible shader script is loaded.  Since none have been checked in yet this means it is currently disabled.

• Added command line options to force windowed mode and to control GPU multi-threading.

• Added a wide screen hack that can be enabled with the -'wide-screen' argument or WideScreen in the config file.

• Tweaked help text slightly.

• Fixed left/right stereo channels -- they were reversed by default.

Revision: 241

• Added front/rear speaker balance (actually the master/slave SCSP balance). Balance setting is stored in CSoundBoardConfig and can be set on the command line (-balance) or config file (Balance). Valid range is 100 (front speaker volume doubled, rear muted) to -100. The default is 0, both sets at full volume. Balance is applied in the SCSP core before overall sound and music volume settings.

• Added preliminary specular lighting to shaders. The "no spotlight" shader has not yet been updated.

• Updated some comments regarding the VF3 ROM patches. It seems many of them are no longer necessary. The single necessary patch affects timing (note how the warning screen stays up longer when it is removed). This needs to be investigated -- perhaps it can lead to a timing fix for vf3, vs2, and fvipers2?
