Retroarch v1.8.3 Released with Angle support
It is possible to switch from Direct3D 11 to OpenGL (ANGLE) according to the needs of the core. That way, you get the best performance possible with the native Direct3D 11 driver for each core that doesn't require OpenGL, and for cores that need it, it will seamlessly switch to it. No manual configuration is necessary.
The arrival of Angle changes a lot, as well as for the Xbox One version with UWP and Windows 10.
