Dolphin SVN r7264

EmuCR:DolphinDolphin SVN r7264 is released. Dolphin is the first Gamecube emulator able to run commercial games! Dolphin is a great Gamecube(NGC) and Wii emulator. It has a partial Wii support and plays most Gamecube games. SSSE3 and SSE4 optimized are enabled in this build.

Dolphin SVN changelog:
r7259
Remove numerous video options from the ISO properties.
Use the new configuration profile system instead.
Thanks to kostamarino for migrating the game inis to the new system :)
r7260
Core/DSP: Access all registers except ST* through the regcache

No speed difference, probably because our basic blocks are
too small to contain more than one access to any register
or used too seldom for multiple accesses to make a difference.
r7261
a little simplification for the dlist id and a little correction to YieldProcessor in windows.
in windows sleep(0) behaves more like what is defined in the yield instruction so use it instead. In my amd 6 core system brings a nice 8% speedup so please test I'm interested in knowing the behavior in different systems.
r7262
DX11: Improve efb-encode shader some more.

According to AMD's GPU ShaderAnalyzer, most combinations of shaders have about 1.5x-2x higher peak per-clock throughput after this commit. For those concerned about performance, I do intend to make this at least as fast as the other backends. This is one more step toward that goal.
r7263
Make the break point window toolbar a real toolbar, and general debugger gui cleanup.
r7264
Integer constants larger than int need a type suffix.

  1. god damn baldurs gate dark alliance runs like straight ass on my phenom x4. The state says 4 out of 5 stars but yet it runs at around 30% average in the cellar below the inn/bar. ive tried everything to make it run better but i just cant get it to run without running horribly slow. any ideas anyone? or does sse2 and sse3 suck that much compared to the newer sse4's that intel have?

    Also...
    I use amd fusion 1.1.1 beta (old one works better for some reason), i tend to get a 5-10fps gain in emulators sometimes more.

  2. I'm amazed at how much better the emulator performs than it did around SVN revision 6600 (which wasn't even that long ago)! Good job guys, and keep up the good work! :)
