• CHEEVOS: Re-enforce hardcore limitations once achievements are loade
• CHEEVOS/MENU/MATERIALUI: Show achievement badge icons in MaterialUI driver
• D3D9: D3D9 has been split up into two drivers - D3D9 HLSL (max compatibility, no shader support yet) and D3D9 Cg (dependent on deprecated Nvidia Cg runtime library)
• D3D9/HLSL/XMB: XMB fix
• D3D9/CG: D3D9 Cg driver fixed
• D3D11: Fix overlay not showing up
• D3D11/12: Reduce lag with WaitForVBlank - this rather simple addition seems to make D3D11/12 very very close to Vulkan/GLCore regarding input lag.
• D3D11/12: Add waitable swapchains and max frame latency option
• D3D11/12: Make waitable swapchains optional
• DATABASE: Reformat 'rdb_entry_int' - Nitpick adjustments for database entries: Capitalize "Release Date", and remove space before : from Release Date rows which use integer

• GFX: Fix readability and precision issues in aspectratio_lut
• GFX: Add option to manually enable/disable automatic refresh rate switching
• GFX: Enable automatic configuration of 'VSync Swap Interval'
• GFX/FONT/FREETYPE: Use FT_New_Memory_Face - first read it from file to memory beforehand - this solves an asset extraction issue when selecting 'Update Assets' - apparently FT_New_Face keeps an open file handle to the font file which prevents it from being overwritten/deleted while the program is still running.
• GFX/THUMBNAILS: Thumbnail aspect ratio fix

• GFX/VIDEO FILTERS: Add Upscale_240x160-320x240 video filter with 'mixed' method

• INPUT: Analog button mapping fixes
• INPUT/HID/LINUX: (qb) Disable HAVE_HID by default for now for Linux as long as there are no working backends for both
• INPUT/HID/WINDOWS: (qb) Disable HAVE_HID by default for now for Windows as long as there are no working backends for both
• INPUT/OVERLAY: Block pointer input when overlay is pressed

• LIBRETRO/SAVESTATES: Implement an api call for context awareness
• LOCALIZATION: Updates
• LOCALIZATION: Add Catalan language option
• LOCALIZATION: Fix some bad localization
• LINUX: Make memfd_create call more backwards compatible by calling it through syscall - on older systems, you'll have to include linux/memfd.h for the MFD_ defines, and call memfd_create() via the the syscall(2) wrapper (and include unistd.h and sys/syscall.h for it work). We exclude linux/memfd.h header include because we already provide the MFD_ defines in case they are missing
• LINUX/MALI FBDEV: Fix assertion failed on video threaded switch

• NETWORK/NETPLAY/DISCOVERY: Ensure fixed width ints on packet struct
• NETWORK/NETPLAY/DISCOVERY: Support for IPv4 tunneling (6to4)
• NETWORK/NETPLAY/DISCOVERY/TASKS: Netplay/LAN Discovery Task refactor - aims to prevent blocking the main thread while awaiting for the LAN discovery timeout; This is accomplished by moving the whole discovery functionality into its task and using a non-blocking timer to finish the task. Also fixes discovery sockets not being made non-blocking, which could cause the main thread to hang for very long periods of time every pre-frame.
• NETWORK/NETPLAY/TASKS: Find content task refactor - fixes many issues along the way, including a couple of nasty memory leaks that would leak thousands of bytes each time the task ran. It also expands the original concept by matching currently run content by filename (CRC matching is always performed first though).

• NETWORK/NETPLAY/LOBBY: Add setting for filtering out rooms with non-installed cores

• NETWORK/NETPLAY/VITA: Launch compatibility patch
• NETWORK/NETPLAY/3DS: Launch compatibility patch
• NETWORK/NETPLAY/3DS: Adapt POLL for 3DS platform
• NETWORK/NETPLAY/PS3: Launch compatibility patch
• NETWORK/NETPLAY/WII: Enable net_ifinfo for some features. In practice, this only allows the netplay's UPnP task to succeed on the Wii.
• NETWORK/NETPLAY/WIIU: Launch compatibility patch
• NETWORK/NETPLAY/SWITCH: Launch compatibility patch
• NETWORK/UPNP: Attempt support for remaining platforms
• NETWORK/UPNP: Support for IPv4 tunneling

• ONLINE UPDATER: Online Updater menu reorganizing
• OSX: Fixed items of system top menu bar on macOS
• OSX: Revision to macOS app icon set
• PLAYLISTS: Ensure history list will contain CRC32

• PS4/ORBIS: Orbis/PS4 Support using OrbisDev toolchain
• PS4/ORBIS: Update xxHash dependecy
• PS4/ORBIS: Shader cache
• RETROFW: Exclude unused HAVE_HID for RetroFW
• RETROFW: Support battery indicator on RetroFW
• RETROFW: Enable menu toggle button on retrofw devices
• SHADERS: Shader Preset Loading of Multiple additional #references lines for settings
• SHADERS: Shader Load Extra Parameter Reference Files - this adds the ability to put additional #reference lines inside shader presets which will load additional settings. The first reference in the preset still needs to point at a chain of presets which ends with a shader chain, and subsequent #reference lines will load presets which only have parameter values adjustment. This allows presets to be made with a modular selection of settings. For example with the Mega Bezel one additional reference could point at a preset which contained settings for Night mode vs Day mode, and another reference could point to a preset which contained settings for how much the screen should be zoomed in.
• SHADERS/MENU: Increase shader scale max value
• SCANNER/DC: Fix Redump bin/cue scan for some DC games
• SCANNER/GC/WII: Add RVZ/WIA scan support for GC/Wii
• SCANNER/PS1: Improved success rate of Serial scanning on PS1 by adding support for the xx.xxx format
• SCANNER/PS1: Changed return value of detect_ps1_game function to actuially return a failure when the Serial couldn't be extracted. Scanner will then fallback on crc check, and usually ends up finding the games in the database.

• TASKS: More thread-awareness in task callbacks
• TASKS: Fix race condition at task_queue_wait
• TVOS: Revised tvOS icons w/ updated alien.
• VFS: Fix various VFS / file stream issues
• VULKAN: Fix more validation errors
• VULKAN: Attempt to fix validation errors with HDR swapchain. Always use final render pass type equal to swapchain format. Use more direct logic to expose if filter chain emits HDR10 color space or not
• VULKAN/ANDROID: Honor SUBOPTIMAL on non-Android since you'd want to recreate swapchains then. On Android it can be promoted to SUCCESS. SUBOPTIMAL_KHR can happen there when rotation (pre-rotate) is wrong.
• VULKAN/DEBUG: Automatically mark buffer/images/memory with names
• VULKAN/DEBUG: Move over to VK_EXT_debug_utils. Debug marker is deprecated years ago.
• VULKAN/HDR: Fix leak of HDR UBO buffer
• VULKAN/BFI: Fix BFI (Black Frame Insertion) regression
• WINDOWS: Fix exclusive fullscreen video refresh rate when vsync swap interval is not equal to one - refresh rate in exclusive fullscreen mode was being incorrectly multiplied by vsync swap interval, breaking swap interval functionality at the gfx driver level
• WIN32: Do optimization for Windows where we only update the title with SetWindowText when the previous title differs from the current title
• WIN32: Skip console attach when logging to file
• WIN32: Remove black margins with borderless non-fullscreen window
• WIN32/TASKBAR: Release ITaskbarList3 on failed HrInit - pointer wasn't NULL'd, thus set_window_progress would cause weird behavior
• WII/GX: Fix potential datarace
• WIIU: Implement sysconf and __clear_cache
• WIIU: Add OS memory mapping imports
• UWP: Added launch protocol arg 'forceExit' so a frontend can tell an already-running RetroArch UWP instance to quit.
