Mali gpus and vulkan drivers #8

Open ROMANIOSerror opened 5 months ago

ROMANIOSerror commented 5 months ago

Will the emulator add custom drivers for mali gpus so they can support vulkan 1.3 as it is deemed necessary by some other emulators for specific titles out there ?

I heard about some projects attempting to implement custom mali gpu drivers so I just hope the dev will add them to the emulator :)

Yes but in a far away future After the Adreno Custom Driver Loader is finished and the emulator already started to boot some games, still after the first generation of the JIT reach "in use" state

shadergz, taking advantage of the conversation. I'm not saying what you should "do", just an expectation or hope on the side. But when the project matures, should we expect better performance than AetherSX2 on both Mali and Adrenos? Given that the purpose is similar to Skyline, a project made from scratch.

I think from what we witnessed with aethersx2 and Nethersx2 he can definitely increase the performance but to an extent. I personally don't expect it to run on a potato phone like the one I have right now which is understandable.

You must consider the dev will definitely take time to reach to the level of aethersx2/nethersx2 let alone boosting the performance a little bit but again like I said I personally don't expect it to run perfectly fine on potato phones without glitches here and there

Anyway "LET HIM COOK" :)
