I'm having a spot of bother with the F9 key to toggle hardware/software rendering.
In the game "Black" (Criterion) you have to start the game in software rendering mode in order to be able to see the sky. If you start the game in hardware mode, when you start a mission the sky will just be a featureless black void.
However I launch all my PS2 games from shortcuts using the "--cfgpath" command-line switch to point to a specific folder of ini files that I've created for each of my games with the optimal settings.
For Black I set up gsdx.ini with software rendering as the default so i can start any mission properly, thinking I can toggle to hardware mode with F9 to speed things up once I get in-game. What I'm having trouble with is that F9 does not toggle from software rendering to hardware rendering if the default is software rendering, it just stays on the default setting. However, if the default is hardware rendering, F9 will toggle correctly.
In the end I cobbled together a solution with save states, but it'd be nice if F9 would simply toggle between hardware and software mode and not worry too much about the defaults in the same way that F6 to toggle aspect ratios works.
Kind regards
