PCSX2 2.9.66 Updates OpenGL Backend with GLAD DSA Fallback
PCSX2, the PlayStation 2 emulator, released version 2.9.66 today. The update introduces a fallback mechanism for GLAD_GL_EXT_direct_state_access within its OpenGL graphics backend. This change, detailed in the release notes as "GS/GL: Add GLAD_GL_EXT_direct_state_access fallback," is intended to enhance the emulator's rendering capabilities and compatibility when utilizing OpenGL's direct state access functionality. This release follows PCSX2 v2.9.58, which was released yesterday and updated its DX12 backend to Shader Model 6.5. The continued updates demonstrate ongoing development across PCSX2's various graphics rendering pipelines.
