Not on Mac. Thing is that Vulkan would not be available on Windows too, but MS is big enough with DX strong enough to not care

Yes there are people not happy with Win10 and they wish to stay on Win7.
I am guessing there are far more Win7 machines than Win10.

But if you like to spoke over current Windows reallity then yeah we can conclude how currently there are more games which uses AMD Mantle then DirectX12 and Vulkan togetherLast edited by dungeon; 30 October 2015, 07:41 AM.

Of course a game that will only run on Windows 10 does not need Vulkan, but how many games are now released just for one plattform? Vulkan is very interesting for every mobile device that could get it with a system update, maybe Android 7 recommends it. Linux alone as plattform with Vulkan support would be pretty much useless, that's correct, but you should think in a bigger way. Maybe PS4 could use it too and then there would be a much bigger userbase. Usually Windows graphic driver updates ship everything, not only DX, but OpenGL and later of course Vulkan. Did you ever need to install an OpenGL driver for Windows? Games like Rage require it...

But users will complain forever, as many Windows users likely think that Radeon Software GUI is what driver isLast edited by dungeon; 02 November 2015, 04:51 PM.
