afaik apple supports 4.1, so i dont really see problem there.
4.3+ would be the best though. compute shaders and stuff.
afaik devs want to switch to Vulkan as fast as possible when the UE4 builds with it will be made public. thats what i gathered from the AMA they did

edit: also if you look closely at that video you linked, you see that windows version has lots of clouds compared to linux version as well as ground is cluttered with more stuff, specially noticable near rocks or on the beach.

Quoting: dubigrasuIf UE4 has then it might have.. console is available in ARK.. unless they specially disabled that feature ofcQuoting: Xpandermissing true sky, tesselation and ground clutter - those features are missing from linux versionGotcha Xpander, good info.
and yeah its the reason it runs better, you can achieve same graphical detail on windows when you add
-sm4 to the launch options
I guess is a good test case for a benchmark. Not sure if ARK has a running demorec feature.

the strange thing is that i dunno what they use for the ingame HUD but when you turn that off with backspace key, you pretty much just gain +10 fps - reminds me a bit of those flash UIs .. what was it called scaleform?
edit: ok seems that battleye have killed the performance even more.. ~-5 fps

Quoting: BeamboomHow is the performance of ARK these days? I recall it was pretty bad around launch?its still not great, but its a lot better, when you live(ingame, not real life :) ) in snowy areas its really good actually, 50-80 fps and thats pretty much everything maxed except shadows, but other areas are around 30-50 fps and super huge bases make fps drop down to 20.
