Disappointing results in the benchmark here, though. Not having developer/publisher input hurts AMDVLK greatly. It will never be considered the primary driver for gaming if so many games won't run on it from day 1, no matter that it shines sometimes.

I believe they wanted to replace the backend with the new LLVM based one everywhere eventually, but that's obviously a long way from happening at this point.

Congrats RADV developers, the few you are.
Although i would want Amd and Radv devel forces combined.

Just doesn't look like this would happen any time soon, given the questionable state and development.

It's the same codebase, but not the same codegen backend.
