Cannot select parallel as gfx plugin #698

As instructed at this post https://www.libretro.com/index.php/parallel-n64-low-level-rdp-upscaling-is-finally-here/ , I try to select parallel as my GFX plugin, but it simply doesn't show there. I've tried doing it with the mupen64 plus next and the same happens there.

Is my system incompatible?

My specs: i5 9400f GTX 1650 16gb Ram Windows 10 Retroarch 1.9.0 with updated cores

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

It only shows up if you have the vulkan driver active, I think.

I do. It is selected in Retroarch's drivers' options. I can play normally using Beetle PSX in Vulkan. Thanks for the reply anyway. 👍

Hmm, I'm getting the same behavior in Linux 64-bit, actually. I guess related to something with the buildbot restore.

Thanks for your comment. It's good to know I'm not the only one, lol. 😅🙏

I have this exact problem!

I encountered the same problem. I updated Retroarch's cores through its automatic updater yesterday (ParaLLEl 2.0-rc2 9b6c595) and the "parallel" option disappeared from both the GFX and RSP plugin menus. Recovered the old version (2.0-rc2 29e7f39) from a system backup and the option reappeared.

This seems to be fixed in the current builds.
