Hellpoint, the dark sci fi action RPG now has a demo on Steam with Linux support

Nice to see a game that uses multi cores for a change, 100 + fps @ 1440p . Does seem slow paced but not a big player of these types of games.

Nice to see decent launch options too like Monitor selection, input ect .

Quite liked it tbh. Will keep an eye on this

Still waiting on a activation email :(

The UNIGINE engine will get Vulkan support this year

Quoting: EhvisFrom the results thread it is obvious that even at low fps, the results are still very dependent on the CPU. This suggests that a decent gain should be possible with Vulkan.
Going on the results I've seen it makes little difference on CPU.

If you look at the bench thread you have a 980ti with a AMD8320e beating the same card with a intel 5960, Rather a large difference don't you think.
Pretty sure a 5960 in vastly superior to a 8320e :P

It was supposed to be ground up Vulkan/DX12 wasn't it?

Sure I remember reading it on phoronix or somewhere last year

Quoting: pete910It is brutal on GPU's tbh, also the openGL implementation is nowhere near the perf of DX from the scores I've seen.
From what I can find the Win10/DX11 results are very close to the Linux/OpenGL looking at Average FPS:

Windows 10 DirextX (1080ti - Extreme setting - 46 FPS):

Linux OpenGL: (1080ti - Extreme setting - 44.5 FPS)

Take his benches with a bucket of salt, Why on earth he cant just use the actual score that the bench produces is beyond me.

1080's are averaging 4500 in windows. mine is 3225, so like I said, not even close.

Need to see the score as to determine how Phoronix and everybody elses stacks up, Showing the average is only part of the benchmark final score

See I am helpful :P
