That's very surprising. Can you be a bit more specific about your device? It's good to know it's on Mali though.

I am using a Ugoos AM8 amlogic s928x. I only found that I could reproduce the crash every time when the Kratos character in Soulcalibur does whatever he does.

ok, so it's not when starting the the match, but a bit later? some specific move?

as soon as the match starts and the engine draws Kratos

I can't seem to reproduce this in the latest build. Can you try? It might already be fixed. https://buildbot.orphis.net/

Hi,

I tried the latest build [v1.16.6-797-g6993cc9e3] on Android from https://buildbot.orphis.net/ppsspp/index.php and the Kratos character Vulkan 3D still exits with no exception, non-graceful termination.

So I can still reproduce the same issue on my Android box. I guess maybe it is specific to my version of Android, the Mali GPU, and Vulkan, etc. (ARM Mali-G57 MC2, OpenGL ES 3.2, Vulkan 1.2, OpenCL 2.0)

(I can live with using OpenGL instead of Vulkan, since there is not much performance difference.)

I tried on a device with a related GPU (Mali-G52), no issues. so this is quite strange.

Just out of curiousity, can you go into settings/tools/system information and check the GPU driver version? you must be in Vulkan mode for this.

hm, that's a newer driver than I have on. However, your OS is 32-bit, not 64-bit.. Maybe there's something there..

hrydgard commented 2 months ago

Still can't reproduce, postponing.

Maybe corrupted ISO?
