Core doesn't start if "Renderer" core option is set to "Auto" and if you're using Vulkan as video driver. about lrps2 HOT 7 CLOSED

We are not talking about Vulkan support, the problem is that it does not select the driver in Automatic. Even if you have Vulkan as a global driver, the automatic core has to select the best option available to work, which would be GL. The same as if you put the global driver in DX12, with the Auto option of the core, it would have to be put in DX11.

The rest of the cores, if they do not support Vulkan, the next best driver that supports is put, such as GLCore or GL. But in the core of PCSX2 the Auto option of the drivers does not work.

That's the problem.

Oh just to be clear, I'm not asking for a Vulkan renderer in the core 😄 I'm just saying that the automatic driver switching is not working properly atm!

reporting in to confirm. I just have an override set for now.

In theory, when you put it in AUTO, you have the controller that you have configured in Retreoarch, either Vulkan or GLCore, the core has to change to the best possible option, that is, GL, but as you comment, the change does not occur. You have to put OpenGL in the core options so that it boots without problems and thus not change the main driver.

Similar issue here, core crashed at content load and I had to manually set the global Retroarch video driver to gl to make it work.

Maybe have the core default gsdx to opengl and then win users can manually switch to d3d11? Wouldn't that fix this issue?

Verifying the issue. Vulkan set, PCSX2 crashes upon loading, GLcore set, the core works fine. Doesn't automatically switch to the correct API/renderer from Vulkan, will simply crash instead.
