One question - why? :(

drillsar commented 7 years ago

It's deprecated and no longer supported. This project moved to Vulkan awhile ago.

Almost a year ago if I remember correctly

drillsar commented 7 years ago

On my copy of Xenia; I removed it completely.

0x8080 commented 7 years ago

same here when I remove the files from gl4

Margen67 commented 7 years ago

I somehow doubt any system with a GPU that doesn't even support Vulkan would run the emulator that well.

Parovozik commented 7 years ago

On OpenGL some games works is fine, but on Vulkan even not start or just work worse. Why remove it from the assembly - how it prevents you from working on Vulcan api?

Margen67 commented 7 years ago

Having a deprecated backend bloats up the code/repo. It's open source so you're welcome to make your own fork with OpenGL support.

@Margen67 Thanks!
