LLE Vulkan LRPS2 , AMD issues

General Development
#1

hi guys , I’ve been very eager to try the LLE Vulkan version. And I have tried it on 2 PCs and get similar issues.

MAME PC Radeon 7970 , exits back to Win 10 Bedroom PC Radeon 570 , black screen when game launched.

I don’t know if it’s a common Radeon problem ?

anyways chat soon

#2

have you changed your RA video driver to vulkan ?

#3

In my experience, amd cards are theoretically good cards plagued by awful drivers. Your problem sounds like dozens of other problems i’ve seen over the years between amd cards and hardware-rendered cores, it’s also entirely possible that you simply missconfigured something. Maybe try posting logs.

hi shak , yep it sure is on Vulkan.

#5

Only tested 2 games without problem at the moment, they launch and dont see any graphic issues so far, the games are Shadow of the Colossus and Godhand.

Running on:

  • Win 10 19045.5371.

  • Ryzen 5 5600.

  • 16 GB RAM.

  • RX 6600.

  • Retroarch 1.20.0 Video Output set to vulkan.

  • LRPS2 Video renderer set to paraLLEl-GS
