Fixes

  • FIFA World Cup: Germany 2006 no longer freezes at start on every boot
    after the first. On its first boot the game copies its data to a cache
    drive, and from then on a helper thread checks that cache while the
    game starts. The game pauses that helper by waiting for it to reach a
    safe point, giving up the CPU in the meantime, but the helper runs at a
    lower priority and the emulator only ever handed the CPU to threads of
    the same priority or higher, so it never got to run and the game waited
    forever. Giving up the CPU now lets a lower priority thread run, as on
    the console. Checked over five boots in a row with the cache in place,
    each reaching the intro. Thanks to RiasatSalminSami for the report (#89).
