Is this still an issue?

warmenhoven commented 8 months ago

Yes, I can reproduce this. I've tried all four graphics drivers and they all do the same thing, in basically the same place inside Metal but taking different routes to get there.

warmenhoven commented 8 months ago

Interestingly both the HW and non-HW cores crash similarly.

warmenhoven commented 8 months ago

If I run in Xcode with "Metal Shader Validation" turned on, it doesn't crash and doesn't give any warnings.

warmenhoven commented 8 months ago

And it works fine on latest iOS, so that's not going to give any clues either.

warmenhoven commented 8 months ago

Hm, there are other issues with this core as well: the recompiler seems to cause it to hang indefinitely at start; and it can't be dlopen()'ed a second time.

dixius99 commented 4 months ago

I get a very similar crash report. Seems to crash no matter what video driver I use. Interestingly though: for me, this problem only began some time after around February 15. I had used the Beetle PSX core previously, and it worked fine.

Oh, is it valuable to also see the log file RetroArch generates?
