F1 2017 released for Linux as Feral Interactive’s first Vulkan-only title, here’s a port report

Quoting: Brisse
Quoting: LeopardThat performance is a joke.

If a Vulkan port came out like that , sorry but all Vulkan hassle from Feral sounds like a selling tool.

What will be the difference when they do that on OpenGL? I think it wouldn't be worse.
And yet the game works perfectly fine. If you have a system like liamdawe's and hook it up to a 60hz monitor you wouldn't even notice the difference compared to Windows when maxing out the settings.
You're trying to justify it but don't do that.

Performance is very bad , why even a Windows user wants to convert to Linux after seeing these kind of results again and again?

I'm okay with %10 performance loss but it is nearly %40 percent and it is not even a graphically intense game.

Quoting: LeopardI don't understand that , why would anyone wants to run Windows version of Rpcs3 in Wine when native Linux version is also available?
because on Radeon with Gallium Nine, DirectX 9 is native.
Rpcs3 is a PS3 emulator which uses OpenGL and Vulkan.

There is no connection at all.

Icculus ports an unknown title yet again , surprised?

You shouldn't.

The developers of Ashes of the Singularity: Escalation are working on the Linux version

Oh yeah. Though , as Liam noted it is crazy that there are many people writing Vulkan wrong.

But that Stardock company is a member of Khronos Group afaik , so at least i was expecting them to write it right but still no luck.

GNOME Shell with a customized layout is now Ubuntu's official desktop environment. I've been on it since release and it's very stable, but I did install the normal GNOME Shell session to customize it as I like.
Antergos with KDE didn't work out for you?
Even Linux solely didn't work out for him :D
This again? Yes I have a Windows partition, for many reasons. There's no need to point it out repeatedly in comments. I'm not an elitist and 99.99% of my time is spent on Linux.
I also have a PS4, a Nintendo Switch, an Android phone and so on ;)
Focus to the smiley Liam , i've said nothing wrong at all

I think "O VAIN... etc" is Total War: Rome 2
and "ONE RETURN TO" is either Shadow of Wardor or Rise of Tom Braider
One Return is f1 2017
