Just to clarify, I see the benefit of rendering on a dGPU and displaying on an Intel chip. What I don't understand is doing the inverse of that.

FWIW, this did already work for some Vulkan apps that use the other API to query for presentation support, just it didn't for Feral games which use the method where my change was made.Last edited by aejsmith; 24 October 2018, 04:57 PM.

At this rate people are going to be like "what's your gripe with this? It's not a big deal" and I don't have a gripe with it and I don't think it's a bad feature, I just find it weird, because even the proposed use-case for it isn't the easiest or most logical solution.Last edited by schmidtbag; 24 October 2018, 12:29 PM.

I'm not sure why anyone would want to render on an Intel GPU and output to a discrete GPU. But, I guess there's nothing wrong with adding the feature, anyway.
