New gfx engine won't work on Orange Pi 5 about supermodel HOT 3 CLOSED

On suggestion by a youtuber I tried using commit 4c727ab and it fixes probably all those gfx glitches under legacy3d mode. Nice.
I can also run Sega Rally 2 with the new gfx mode but like you suggest the frame rate is lower so I'll probably stick with legacy until maybe one day the Mesa drivers for the system gets updated.

Maybe with some granular graphics settings users on lower spec system could benefit from cheaper improvements like texture filtering only without the bigger hit to fps? Or maybe there's other things happening too that are not so easy to break out?

I didn't write the new rendering engine but my understanding is that it now requires OpenGL 4.x and therefore will not work on systems that only support OpenGL ES. Apart from the legacy engine, which is unfortunately years out of date, there is probably no simple path to making it work.
