It can be used to record an emulated scene during emulation and to playback it arbitrarily often later on. Furthermore, it allows for close inspection of each FIFO command sent to the GPU during emulation. | ||
Possible use cases for FifoPlayer include debugging rendering issues in games which a developer does not have access to. Users can just record a fifo log and give it to devs, who can analyze the rendering commands without the actual game iso. Also, having an automatically formatted FIFO command list very much eases the task of figuring out how a specific game's graphics are rendered and where it goes wrong in Dolphin. FifoPlayer can restrict the render output to the objects of interest, effectively cleaning up any irritating "unrelated" objects. | Possible use cases for FifoPlayer include debugging rendering issues in games which a developer does not have access to.
