I can't help it but OMG, SS, I don't understand why are you being so entitled to second-guess Delroth when the reasons are completely rationally explained, even evident. Nobody seems to disagree except you. You're saying that the decision of not maintaining DX9 is an arbitrary decision, even when Delroth explained the technical reasons behind. You're saying that maintaining DX9 is depending of a "Yes" or "No". Is not that easy. If they want to keep improving the video support on Dolphin, they need to move foward, not to keep depending on a buggy, oudated engine with incomplete support of all the GC/Wii features. At least not without turning Dolphin under a crumb of hacks. The video engine needs an overhaul, and that's not going to happen without breaking DX9... or making alternative parallel code, like Delroth already explained, which is redundant and unnecesary work, also, easier said than done. No developer seems to be interested in doing that, you're the only one that seems to care about it. Maybe, if someone does that work, they'll likely include it in Dolphin. This is an Open-Source project for a reason. So, please, spend less time bashing Delroth, and spend more time bashing the infinitude of what is everybody, that does nothing with it.
Delroth, keep up with your awesome work.
