PPSSPP 1.5 Update is here! Now supports Vulkan!

Damn will have to give this a try for sure

The Vulkan API is part of the Windows port, the OP should maybe have pointed that out IMO

Did you even download it and run it? Maybe you should check out the backend in the rendering before assuming otherwise, no? I see it fine on my end.

I just downloaded it last night. I did not see the option. I was simply asking a question not making a statement. Where do you find the Vulkan option on the PC version?

I just downloaded 1.5.2 (bug fix), went to settings and found the Vulkan API in Settings...Backend *shrug*
Either that, or your GPU may not support Vulkan.

Just checked again. I guess the GPU in my Windows Tablet isn't compatible with Vulkan. I only have options for Open GL, Direct 3D 9 and Direct 3D 11

Awesome update!!!! Every game I've tried with this build/these new settings has run perfectly.

Well there you have it. Oh well.

As nice as it would have been, it's not a pressing issue. Hell, Dead or Alive Paradise runs a LOT better than during my OUYA days and that alone makes me happy. I just need to figure out how to nix letterboxing so that the game fills my screen.

Sorry I was rude about it

At least here, PPSSPP for a long time has two major issues. One, the QT port won't even load (has some GL errors). Two, there's sound popping/click in the SDL port with some random slowdowns. This is an AMD A10-6800K with a GTX 750 Ti in Ubuntu 14.04. Played around with the settings a lot. Seems to be a timing issue or something since it'll often run a 59/60 FPS. Alternative speed (unlimited) runs at ~800%. *shrug*

Oh, yea, and no Vulkan support in SDL apparently.
