IsambardPrinceOkay, I got GTA Vice City Enhanced to start running on ChromeOS in Baguette.Apr 13 02:33
IsambardPrinceBut apparently the Venus driver for Vulkan does not support the required Vulkan extensions to actually run that game.Apr 13 02:34
IsambardPrinceIt's Vulkan 1.1 "compliant", but they say that it even fails some of those tests on the Mesa3d site.Apr 13 02:34
IsambardPrinceThen the game complains that it needs Vulkan 1.3 and specifically the maintenance6 extension. Apr 13 02:35
IsambardPrinceWhich it also complains is missing.Apr 13 02:35
IsambardPrinceThen it says it detects llvmpipe and that it has Vulkan 1.3 support, but it is "skipping software driver".Apr 13 02:36
IsambardPrinceSo does Baguette support Vulkan. Yes, but....anything that uses DXVK won't work.Apr 13 02:38
IsambardPrinceAlthough the Vulkan renderer on UXDoom works.Apr 13 02:38
