Finally! Performance seems great, about the same as the Pro drivers in Doom Eternal and Quake II RTX. Compatibility with DXVK and VKD3D games is a lot better though, RE Village, Crysis Remastered and Metro Exodus EE work with RT now.
Sadly Control has a bug, it renders fine but at 2 fps because the GPU isn't utilized correctly and only clocks to about 100 MHz.

I'd think so, as also the other parts of amdvlk have been valuable to radv devs.

Ashes of the Singularity is one of the most advance vulkan games why we can not have an raytracing updete ?
