Does the Game Support Vulkan Already?

[rifux]

Testing VALHALLA on Mesa 25.1.4 + freedreno resulted in a crash during gameplay (log shows initialization completed, crash occurred post-init: mainloop with OpenGL active).

Question : Is Vulkan rendering already implemented in the game? If not, is it actively being developed or planned? Switching to Vulkan could resolve runtime instability on systems with problematic OpenGL drivers and improve performance on modern hardware.

If this is already in progress or documented, point me to the relevant resources—I’ll handle the technical details myself.

Thanks.

Thank you for the detailed report.

Vulkan rendering has been considered but no real work has been done yet on implementation, so at the moment we are still mostly using OpenGL. If you're interested in experimenting with a Vulkan implementation yourself, contributions/prototypes would be welcome.
