Are you sure the bisect is correct? This commit doesn't touch anything related to graphical output.

Sorry for re-editing the same post (just wanted to post the version of Vulkan SDK: 1.2.131.2)

Hmm yes I tested all versions *BEFORE" v5.0-11688 and they work with Vulkan on macOS...

Did you bisect using your own builds or the buildbot (downloads pages) builds?

From Buildbot builds...I'm on macOS 10.14.6 with Vulkan SDK 1.2.131.2

  • Status changed from New to Accepted
  • Priority changed from Normal to High
  • Regression changed from No to Yes
  • Relates to usability changed from No to Yes
  • Regression start set to 5.0-11688
  • Operating system OS X added
  • Operating system deleted (N/A)

Reproduced in latest master (as of this writing 5.0-11707). Marking as high as OpenGL is pretty bad on macOS so this is pretty detrimental to that platform's users.

Tested on:
MacBook Pro 13in mid-2018 with Touch Bar
macOS 10.15.2
Core i7-8559U @ 4.5ghz
Intel Iris Plus Graphics 655
16GB 2133MHz LPDDR3

The bisected build appears to correlate with us updating Qt to 5.14.1 on the buildbot, so I believe the commit is unrelated and the newer Qt version is the cause of the problem.

Yes I know that Apple's OpenGL is not optimized / updated anymore on macOS (stuck at OpenGL 3.3 I think).
However dolphin for macOS with Vulkan Backend is faster and runs pretty well.

Ok...I tested the buildbot version for macOS with Qt 5.14.1 (dolphin-5.0-11655) and works fine Vulkan.
I can also try to compile it myself....

OK...I just compiled 5.0-11707...I have problems finding the git command to pull your v8662...

Updated by gilcel over 4 years ago

OK found the command :-)

#git fetch origin +refs/pull/8662/merge
#git checkout FETCH_HEAD

It's compiling....

Ok compilation done....same issue: black screen with Vulkan.
I also checked that the latest libvulkan.dylib is bundled with the Dolphin.app...which is the case.

Updated by gilcel over 4 years ago

I checked and compiled a lot of different comitted versions of dolphin...as mentioned before Buildbot at build 110 seems to be the issue (v109 works):

Well not sure if this could help but build v110 has much more warnings than v109...
