I expect tessellation shaders would bring the number up quite a bit, number of vulkan apps in existance using tessellation? 0.
Otherwise I don't think we are missing anything to really make the conformance figures that much different, as-is the driver in that branch passes conforomance.

what features? We are keeping up pretty well, especially with features with compliance tests.

so in fact it is more important to get the features on new hardware instead of over-engineering support of old hardware.
the users can just buy new hardware: problem solved.
@arlied
Pal666's comments seem to address your questions toward me. Considering he and I disagree with each other a LOT more often than we agree, that should stress the significance of my perspective. Though, personally I have a more optimistic outlook. I do see a good future for RADV, and steady improvements.Last edited by schmidtbag; 20 March 2017, 03:41 PM.
