- fixed not used HLSL settings from <custom>.ini if MAME was started
without driver parameter
- removed default values from HLSL sliders, the defaults here are more
like null values to hint when an effect would be disable
- slightly changed default HLSL settings
- screen adjustment (scale, offset) can now be handled by the respective
render API itself (default behavior is as before)
- D3D (if HLSL) is activated handles screen adjustment by itself within
the shader, which fixes the odd behavior of some effects (e.g. round
corners) when screen scale and offset is used
- added special post.fx and distortion.fx shader, which support enabled
artworks, but they cannot apply some of the previously implemented
corrections (e.g. bloom staircase artifacts when screen is curved,
elliptic rounded corners when aspect ratio is not 4:3)
- changed default values of curvature, vignetting, reflection, round
corner and smooth border to 0
- reverted compute_size_subroutine() back to non static
- removed some test code
- added experimental bloom overdrive effect and options, this effect
allows to overdrive pure colors like red, green and blue to become more
brighter
- added lcd.ini to parse_standard_inis()
- enabled smooth border effect and added option, its amount is limited
by the amount of rounded corners
- added raster.ini to parse_standard_inis()
- merged vector and raster bloom options, use vector.ini or raster.ini
to distinguish
- fixed defocus strength with difference prescales
- removed default screen ratio of 4:3, ratio is now based on the screen
quad size
- reverted some space to tab changes
- added distortion pass, which is applied after the bloom pass
- moved vignetting, curvature, round corners and reflection effect to
distortion pass
- disabled distortion pass for multi screens and activated artworks due
to not yet fixed misalignments
- disabled scanlines for vector rendering in post pass shader
- removed prescale knowledge from downsample, bloom and post pass shader
- fixed half pixel offset in most shaders
- fixed position of reflection effect when screen is rotated or flipped
- fixed roundness of round corners in any aspect ratio
- fixed shadow mask bleeding (nearly completly)
- added bounds() and screen_bounds() getter to layout_view
- added current_view() getter to render_target
- some cleanup and refactoring
- removed position offset in post.fx
- fixed texture offset caused by 0th level of bloom.fx
- fixed texture offset caused by focus.fx
- changed Passthrough parameter in phosphor.fx to boolean
- simplified defocus pass function and calling it twice
- removed CU_PHOSPHOR_IGNORE (Passthrough) uniform, which was only used
in phosphor pass function and is now directly set
- added CU_TARGET_DIMS (TargetDims) uniform based on the current render
target
- fixed missing Prescal parameter in downsample pass function
- some code cleanup
- added support for post pass effects for vector rendering (does not
work properly in full screen mode, yet)
- made texture_info::compute_size_subroutine() function public static
- separated downsample pass and bloom pass into two function calls
- removed/replaced simple.fx by using primary.fx to render on screen
- changed PostPass parameter of primary.fx to boolean
- simplified bloom.fx and downsample.fx, Prescale parameter is now set
correctly from outside depending on raster/vector rendering
- fixed roundness of rounded corners; the default aspect ratio of 4:3
should not be stretched anymore when the source has another ratio
- disabled blurring of rounded corners
- some cleanup
- changed shadow mask implementation, shadow count XY now represent the
number of pixel the shadow UV sized tiles will take on the screen
- implemented rotation of the shadow mask texture depending on the
default landscape or portrait view of the screen
- removed prescale and pixel border of the shadow mask texture
- added option to change the shadow UV offset, to reduce the color
bleeding of the shadow mask
- adjusted presets to work with the changed mask implementation
- reduced defocus offset
- improved downsampling for better blurring
- improved alignment of bloom layers (raster and vector)
- applied bloom effect to the render output of screenshot and AVI
recording
- changed curvature effect to fit screen size
- changed scanlines to be not rendered into bloom layers
- changed shadow mask to be not rendered into bloom layers
- changed color floor to not light the bloom layers
- changed shadow mask to not dark the color floor
- added image vignetting simulation and option
- added round screen corner simulation and option
- added screen light reflection simulation and option
- made usage of unused brightness offset (additive)
- removed unused pincushion option
- removed duplicate shadow count Y options
- removed artwork/adapture.png
- added artwork/adapture-grill.png
- added artwork/shadow-mask.png
- added artwork/slot-mask.png
- added hlsl/simple.fx
- removed unused shaders::blit() function
- added shaders::screen_pass() function, which handles the
(raster-)rendering on screen, into screenshot and AVI recording
- added effect:set_bool() function
- 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

- Created two flags, -hlsl_ini_write and -hlsl_ini_read. The former enables
custom HLSL INI writing explicitly, the other enables loading of the same.
- Fixed disappearing aperture effect when using custom INI files.
- Fixed diagonal seam on some games, for serious real this time
- Fixed phosphor simulation, now works as expected
- 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.
