I don’t mean to hijack a thread at all (can’t figure out how to post new), but how the heck did you get Parallel to work at all? I have a Windows 10 machine with a GTX 1050 and the latest 1.6.7 Retroarch and the Parallel core, and when I load it and select a game (with the video driver set as Vulkan, on a fresh install), the windows error window appears… It has displayed once (007 Goldeneye), don’t know why, but I can’t get it back anymore. Just shows the emulator window then app crash.
