[FEATURE REQUEST] Merge Vulkan renderer #206

Open jclsn opened 2 years ago

jclsn commented 2 years ago

Since a Vulkan renderer was merged into master recently, I was wondering if it could be merged into the core any time soon. It is said to increase framerates by four times in some cases.

Looking forward to get it merged as well. I started to get a look to it but PCSX2 base changed a lot from libretro port... Maybe it worth trying to include libretro again from the current PCSX2 base than porting vulkan back to this project... I'd be happy to help if required but I definitely need some guidance/advice

@cazzoo The developer has spent the last year cleaning up the PCSX2 code base for making it more readable and extensible. The last thing he will do is do the same thing from the current PCSX2. He said he wanted to integrate Vulkan differently as well. We have to stay patient.
