OS: Android 13

Hi there, just wanted to say a massive thanks for getting visual pinball working on android.

I have noticed a few amount of graphic glitches around the flippers where parts of the flippers become transparent on a lot of tables and wondered if there is something I need to do?

This really comes down to the devices gles implementation.

We've seen this on some devices. Unfortunately I only have a Pixel 7 to test with and it renders fine.

Testing on Odin 2 and Samsung Galaxy Flip 5. Android 13 and 14.

Odin has a range of drivers, so will explore more. Can I change the drivers used in ini file?

Unfortunately I'm not an android person so I have no clue. I thought android phones were somewhat locked down in that regards.

Odin is more of a gaming android system, so they have OpenGL and Vulkan.

cool. so in 10.8.1 there is work on using BGFX as the graphics stack, which I believe would allow support for Vulkan. It is still not ready, but getting closer.

@jsm174 that would be even more mega than current mega level.

Many thanks
