A continuation from the previous post with spam of images from games rendering under Vulkan, followed by the beginnings of the Qt based UI.

Making nice progress but still have some interesting glitches.

The blocks in New Super Mario Bros U were not rendering correctly.

Super Mario World 3D is looking good and running in game.

There were still several bugs with Xenoblade though.

We moved to doing surface tiling / untiling on the GPU, there were a few performance issues to debug with it though.

Still struggling with our new GPU tiling.

Meanwhile with some help from SteveLeafo I was able to get h264 rendering working with ffmpeg.
When you compile without ffmpeg I generate a image to take the videos place.

The h264 video in MK8 now plays.

Example of the Spir-V code we generate from decompiling shaders. Much time was spent staring at this figuring out what we did wrong.

The start of the Qt based UI - the green area is being rendered by Vulkan.

I worked on a simple input configuration UI.

Inbetween the tedious UI work I am still reverse engineering the internals of the Wii U to further learn things. This is the code that reads meta.xml into a structure in memory, I was looking at this piece of code so I could figure out the layout of the structure.

Meanwhile Brett was trying to make performance improvements in the Vulkan renderer.

Trying to get travis and appveyor to build with Qt and Vulkan took a few tries.

First I got the debug ui rendering in Qt + Vulkan.
Then like 30 minutes later I had the game rendering too!

Super Mario 3D World running in decaf-qt + Vulkan.
