Nolan Check ade9479005 Display buffer flips are now triggered by the CPU thread through the Video_UpdateXFB function. This is a fairly significant change of behavior, but it improves performance.
Also, render target code is cleaned up. Post-processing shaders now work with multisampling and Real-XFB mode.

Data Added the ability to install WADs (such as DLC WADs). Currently it just installs a WAD when booting it fails (when it's not bootable), I'm not sure whether there should be a menu option specially for installing WADS... 2009-06-17 02:50:54 +00:00

Externals Fix a mess up on my part, causing a bunch of unknown events in Linux with the Wiimote. Dolphin sends out packets without the start 0x52 byte. WiiUse checks for this and adds it automatically. Wiimote is still having some problems, trying to figure it out 2009-06-22 11:56:27 +00:00
