RPCS3: The Last of Us, Ratchet, and Resistance get major visual and performance upgrades

On August 17, the RPCS3 emulator's development team released a new video on their YouTube channel, highlighting updates for games like The Last of Us, Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time, and Resistance.

Improved frame buffer memory synchronization using Read Depth and Color Buffer has significantly boosted performance and enhanced visuals in Ratchet & Clank Future. Currently, this applies only to the Vulkan renderer, but that's expected to change soon.

Another achievement is the significant stabilization and improved rendering in The Last of Us. Performance also saw a boost, all thanks to an enthusiast known as kd-11.

Developers also report that RPCS3 will soon see further functional improvements, thanks to refined data transfer for DMA (Direct Memory Access – a technology for direct memory access, bypassing the CPU).
