#vkd3d — Public Fediverse posts

VK3D es lo que permite a Proton traducir Direct3D 12 a Vulkan.

Recientemente han publicado la versión 3.0 con una serie de cambios muy importantes que tienen como resultado tanto la mejora de rendimiento como la compatibilidad.

Dentro de los cambios vamos a destacar la reescritura del backend de DXBC que afecta a los shaders. Gracias a esto se arreglan un montón de juegos como por ejemplo el render D3D12 de Red Dead Redemption 2.

#VKD3D #linuxgaming #vulkan

Me meto por el culo la maravilla que es #dxvk (gracias a Philip Rebohle y demás) y el "fork" #vkd3d de Hans-Kristian Arntzen (y demás, claro) que obran el milagro de pasar las llamadas de #Direct3D 8, 9, 10, 11 y 12 a @vulkan.

También leyendo guías de optimización en #Steam veo que un truco *muy* extendido es usar @vulkan. Hay un huevo de gente en Windows usando #dxvk o #vkd3d. ¡Qué te follen #Direct3D!

Como se hace para que en #mangohud salga que API gráfica está usando el juego. Sea #Vulkan, #DXVK, #VKD3D... antes sí me salía pero ahora no doy con la tecla. Ayudita, pleaseeeee...

Just look at recent performance updates to the #Linux kernel over recent cycles. Almost every Linux kernel improves the gaming software stack to improve performance. Over that same time, software such as #ProtonLinux #DXVK #VKD3D #Wine is updated to improve performance.

There is a reason why #Valve and other companies are investing a lot of resources into Linux

Currently, 95% of the massive #Steam library is playable on Linux (and if you try a game and it doesn't work, it's most likely because of an invasive kernel-mode anticheat). Who would have guessed this 10 years ago? Huge thanks to #ValveSoftware, #Wine, #DXVK, #VKD3D projects and everyone involved in this #OpenSource miracle!

Wine Direct3D 12 to Vulkan translation library vkd3d v1.11 released https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2024/03/wine-direct3d-12-to-vulkan-translation-library-vkd3d-v1-11-released/

#Linux interop is maturing fast… thanks to a #games #console and #SteamOS
#Valve's Proton, an #opensource tool to run Windows games on Linux. It's formed from a collection of different FOSS packages, notably:
#WINE, the compatibility layer for Windows APIs.
#DXVK, which translates DirectX version 9 to 11 calls into Vulkan calls.
#VKD3D-Proton, which translates DirectX 12 calls to Vulkan.
And also #GStreamer open source multimedia framework

Intel works for Linux gaming | Vulkan sparse support for newer games on Arc GPU's ℹ️

This one's needed for running many new DirectX 12 Windows made games via Valve's Steam Play using VKD3D-Proton.

Own an Intel Arc GPU and game? These'll work now then:

►Elden Ring
►Street Fighter 6
►Assassin's Creed Valhalla

Inb4 we all use translation layers to play games (yes, even on windows) because apparently it allows competent and talented people to optimize around junk that limits performance (similar example was elden ring last year) on the fly.

::: Proton-like experience to effectively play Windows-only games on Linux desktop (outside Steam) - exeCute ✅

This baby truly simplifies the usage of Wine & DosBox.

Click the executable - exeCute configures Wine OPTIMALLY.

* Automates whether to launch via Wine or Dosbox

* Installs DXVK / VKD3D - all DirectX apps run fast using Vulkan

* Mounts any disk image found in the executable folder (physical disc simulated)

* DPI is set accordingly (current resolution)

* Restores desktop resolution (if Wine has not)

No prefixes, configs, options - exeCute just launches apps optimally!

Things have started to fall in place towards a nice simplistic oneness on a multi dimensional space :linux:

Okay, so for the record, I tried a bunch of things to get #GuildWars2 to work on #NVIDIA:

- Installing #Nouveau to use #Gallium9 caused a lot of problems (like no 144 Hz) with no noticable improvement.
- Installing #VKD3D #Proton didn't do anything as #GW2 is #DX11
- Installing #DXVK made the launcher crash "Coherent GPU process crashed"
- Simply launching the game through #Steam magically worked. ✨

Seriously, what black magic is #Valve doing? Is #Wine even relevant anymore? #GamingOnLinux

The new Rlden Ring 1.09 ray tracing works on Linux pretty easily. Does require a few flags to be set in vkd3d. Effects are subtle at best, mostly the foliage, cloth, etc gets better self shading. It's easier to see in a screenshot than video with youtube's compression down to 1080p.
