Vulkan API 1.0.42 released, new NVIDIA beta drivers released to go with it

Quoting: Alm888Or to use #IFDEF / #ELIF directives everywhere. And that's provided that "win32" and "fd" versions are equivalent for the code and not require some vastly different usage.
That's probably the whole point. They needed to do that anyway because the systems have different approaches to these system functions. Khronos could either put two different approaches in the same extension or separate them. Since a system can only really implement one approach, separating them in different extensions is better way to do it.

Pictopix, a very clever logic puzzle game involving counting squares

I do enjoy these logic puzzles, but these games are usually waaaaaay too easy. I'll get mine from Conceptis Puzzels directly. Even though that means (ugh) flash.

Maybe Alm88 missed the "_fd" versions for non-Windows operating systems.

Looks like the Serious Sam 4 release date may have been shown in an 'easter egg'

Sounds good. That should be enough time to do the other three before then.

Quoting: jith_feralHi, if you haven't already, can you please send the seg fault dump to [email protected]? If you've opened a ticket you can just reply to the existing ticket with the seg fault info, otherwise get in touch with details about the problem.
I hadn't mailed yet. But on a freshly booted system, it worked without error. So it looks like it's conflicting with something. I'll do more testing.

Quoting: Leopard
Quoting: EhvisFirst time I have major issues with a Feral port. So far I've made it as far as the video after the helicopter pad before it exits with error 139 (segfault). Has anybody seen driver issues?
Are you playing this on your desktop resulotion?

You know,Gtx 970's has 3.5 Gb full speed vram,maybe this is your problem.
Yes. It's the only resolution available. Even in windowed mode. Also, I think the last 0.5 GB would cause performance issues, not crashes. I'll mail Feral support.

Quoting: Guestthis is a popularity contest and a shit form of analysis. I've played most of the games in the audio category, and none of them have SHIT on Devil Daggers for audio. you're comparing the second greatest game ever made to cinematic garbage.
How can it be anything else? If 95% never played a game, I can't win a category no matter how good it is at it.

That trailer looks cool, but it gives me absolutely no idea about what the gameplay will be like.

I used to have the black screen crashes, but haven't had them since the 375 driver.
