Is this Android Driver meant as a alternative to Valves FEX layer?

I'm moved to a Intel Arc NUC miniPC from a BEAST system as I'm traveling far soon, forever and well NUC is a good middle ground.

Anyway it has a OCULINK port that is rated at PCIe4.0 X4 so about PCIe3.0 8x speeds. HOPEFULLY as GPU's advance they'll need less bandwidth (because nobody is going to be able to afford a 32GB GPU)

Apparently 8x vs x16 is like %1-3 performance loss. AND we have AMD, NVIDIA and Intel working on better VRAM compression, heck even the new PS6/XBOXwhatever is going to have these techs BAKED IN and ON BY DEFAULT which means future game vram usage on PC should be quite reasonable. (about time too)

When all the performance and compatibility issues can be dealt with in a single layer, it certainly does make old game restoration? survivability? dammit forgot the word, anyway it makes that thing better for when we are all living in the desert wastelands of the future with no internet!

The only issue I had with bottles is that it kept FAILING to import the media foundation etc etc support.

For some damn weird ass reason it would often not be able to play Video or Audio sometimes and then I load the same setup on Lutris and BOOM it works. It was just infuriating issue.

It's a shame a modern Alienstorm game can't be made. Loved those simple yet cool side scrollers.

Hard to tell but it looks like their using some old school pixel art graphics as well in places? Neat.

Still little surprised they couldn't get proper FSR4 (or FSR next-gen) happening in these boxes.

That FSR3 upscaler is going to look VERY UGLY unless they pull off some sort of miracle update to improve it allot

Meh, results matter. But also if stolen code ends up appearing; you don't want that happening.

There is a risk when using AI coding tools where eventually it could turn into bloatware. So hopefully that isn't what will end up happening a couple years down the line.
