Quoting: burnallWish they used Vulkan this time to improve performance.

I did see a DX12 branch. That could be a nice source for a Vulkan port. Since this one has been in the works for a while, I doubt it will happen though.

Also interesting is that this one was added to the "soon" section of the radar. Still leaving two games "before" it in the very soon section. I think most expected the mars hint to be about this one, but that was apparently not the case.

PS4 does not use OpenGL, but if the internet is correct (hmmm, now that I say this out loud ...) the api was derived from it.

Actually, it wouldn't be so bad if Metal just put in Vulkan in addition. I can understand the need for a stable slowly evolving API to run their GUI system on, but then it would all the more sense to let the games have the Vulkan driver directly from the GPU manufacturer.

For me this beta was very unstable. As in, crash within 5 seconds after continuing my game.

Also, for those getting very high framerates, check the rendering resolution. I've seen before that it sometimes switches back the rendering resolution on switching when switching to Vulkan. Not a fair comparison if that happens.

I had that too until I upgraded to 367 drivers.

The good thing about Linux is that usually someone manages to figure out why and post a workaround before the devs actually fix it. Say maybe someone will figure it out here too. Although tonight may not work anymore. ;)

Yeah, the problem with rhythm games is that I can never seem to get past level one.

That was done pretty quickly. Impressive job!

Quoting: pete910We should see a Linux version "around launch". [External Link]

Cheers for that :D

If you want to keep believing it, stay away from the more recent interviews.
