RE: [UNOFFICIAL] 5xIR Build - DefenderX - 11-28-2012
Skip Destination Alpha Pass improves the performance in Metroid Other M btw
(at least on my Mac)

Yeah no delroth, I deliberately removed that option even though I knew it breaks a game or two.

RE: [UNOFFICIAL] 5xIR Build - neobrain - 11-29-2012
At the time only two of the problems had been reported, which proves the point of the removal.
RE: [UNOFFICIAL] 5xIR Build - Starscream - 11-29-2012
Funny how any thread that talks about removing options always goes back to fastmips one way or another.
RE: [UNOFFICIAL] 5xIR Build - NaturalViolence - 11-29-2012
Gotta complain about something. Might as well blame it on neobrain while we have the chance.

2) Removed the transparent GC banners
3) Removed the "disable fog" option
4) Removed the "skip destination alpha pass" option
5) Moved the "widescreen hack" to the hacks tab
All changes that are worth putting into master, imo. Especially #2.
EDIT: looks like it might be too late...
RE: [UNOFFICIAL] 5xIR Build - Starscream - 11-29-2012
I'm not a big fan of having options that change the way a game normally works. If the game has fog, it should have fog. If the fog is not working correctly, that's another issue, but that doesn't mean fog should be disabled.

Hacks are for when an emulator is finished and people want to mod the games to look like something different.
