Vulkan or open go

[Lidell]

For a low spec Phone I should use vulkan or open Gl for the ppsspp emulador?

Your best bet is to just try both and see how it goes but my understanding is that the older and weaker your phone is the more likely it is OpenGL will be the better choice.

What's your specs btw? We can find out easier with those

I used a Samsung galaxy core 2 to play DBZ Shin Budokai and Shin Budokai 2 doesn't had lag or bugs and working in 60fps, without 60fps could and put in 4xpsp continued working very well I was very impressed, the only graphic driver for this phone is Open GL.

I think it depends the game are you playing, for example: I have played 7th dragon 2020 and the game had better performance with Vulkan, but playing GTA Liberty City he got better with Open GL than Vulkan, of course one is over view and other is 3rd person and also have CPU and GPU gets better than others. (mine is a snapdragon) But many games I played with Vulkan was better than with Open GL. But the emulator is so optimized I can't talk if really have a difference of performance in some cases. I'm not specialized with graphic drivers codes or hardware just basic knowledge about these topics and many tests.

That's quite powerful! Maybe try lowering the resolution to 3x if it starts fe unstable. If you wanted smoother experience though, try checking the VSync for stable framerate and the "Render Duplicate Frames to 60hz" to fix cutscenes, FMVs and basically any visual issues like the flickering

Hope that helps

on a phone i have no idea, on PC vulkan is the way, much faster than openGL, but check because the graphics can be different, more/less glitchy, and etc, really depends on the game
