We want to use positional arguments in translatable strings
that have more than one argument so that translators can change
the order of them, but the question is: Should we also use
positional arguments in translatable strings with only one
argument? I think it makes most sense that way, partially
so that translators don't even have to be aware of the
non-positional syntax and partially because "translatable
strings use positional arguments" is an easier rule for us
to remember than "transitional strings which have more than
one argument use positional arguments". But let me know if
you have a different opinion.
Time for yet another new iteration of working around the
"surface destruction during boot" problem...
This time, the strategy is to use a mutex in MainAndroid.cpp.
Unfortunately, compilers will issue warnings when using offsetof with
non-standard layout types even when offsetof actually works fine here;
just having a virtual function is enough to trigger the warning...
Let's just stop the scan threads explicitly in destructors instead of
relying on member destruction order.
As in the comment, the panning was denaturalizing the volume (when the panning was at 0).
Unless users actually want to use panning, their wii mote volume should not be reduced, it should come out at the same volume the samples were.
If users want to reduce the volume of the wii mote speakers, they can do so from the wii home menu.
I opted for this instead of adding another setting "Enable Panning" as it would have been confusing, and the changes in the panning formula are unlikely to have any negative effect, as it still works.
Common shouldn't be depending on APIs in Core (in this, case depending
on the PowerPC namespace). Because of the poor separation here, this
moves OSThread functionality into core, so that it resolves the implicit
dependency on core.
In case someone wants to be very careful with how much bandwidth
they use or with what data GameTDB.com collects on you.
This is already an option in DolphinQt (though in DolphinQt it
will switch entirely from using covers to banners when turned off).
For the non-packed variant of this instruction, a MOVSD instruction was
generated to copy only the lower 64 bits of XMM1 to the destination
register. This was done in order to keep the destination register's
upper half intact.
However, when register c and the destination register are the same,
there is no need for this copy. Because the registers match and due to
the way the mask is generated, BLENDVPD will end up taking the upper
half from the destination register, as intended.
Additionally, the MOVAPS to copy Rc into XMM1 can also be skipped.
