Setting SO and LT can be done without setting bit 32. Setting bit 32 is
required in situations where clearing bits in the host representation of
a CR could otherwise cause the host representation to become all zeroes,
but it's impossible to generate a host representation whose SO and/or LT
bits are set without any other bits being set. (Any attempt to do so
would require either starting with a host representation of all zeroes
and then setting the SO or LT bit, which results in bit 63 getting set,
or clearing bit 63 by setting the emulated GT bit, which results in bit
32 getting set, or clearing the lower 32 bits by setting the emulated EQ
bit, which results in bit 32 getting set.)
The game calls GXSetDrawDone and then switches the GP fifo without first
waiting for the draw done interrupt to arrive. Before
e96960e2a6, Dolphin would not execute the
draw done command and potentially also skip other commands in the old GP
fifo. Since that commit, Dolphin executes the remaining commands on the
old GP fifo just before disabling reads for switching, but because
PixelEngineManager::RaiseEvent() enforces a minimum delay of 500 cycles
for the draw done interrupt, it arrives after the game has switched to
the new GP fifo which seems to trigger the deadlock.
This patch replaces the call to GXSetDrawDone by a call to GXDrawDone
which does the same but also waits for the interrupt.
Removes the EFBAccessEnable=false explicit game overrides for:
GT6 (Terminator 3: The Redemption)
GXB (SSX3) [deleted - no other configuration]
RTH (Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam)
SNC (SONIC COLOURS) [deleted - no other configuration]
Makes Graphics -> Hacks -> Skip EFB Access from CPU enabled by default. Some GPU drivers stall when EFB access occurs in games where EFB is not used. Most games that require this setting set to 'true' already have this defined in their game inis.
Adjusts the Texture Cache settings/slider to 512 samples which equates
to the 'middle' option in the UI.
If using the 'Safe' Texture Cache Accuracy mode, the left screen will only render bloom in 2P modes.
If using the 'Fast' Texture Cache Accuracy mode, the Intro Movie will
drop frames near the end when the "Shadow the Hedgehog" game title
letters appear. This mode also can result in artifacts/bleed from bloom
effects in some situations.
