It makes perfect sense that this wouldnt be an official extension, especially if it doesn't promote proper use of Vulkan. I'm fine with this approach.
A lot of titles are broke in small ways due to this missing feature. GTA5, Witcher3 and pretty much all Unity based games have issues. It will be nice to see this ticked off the box and move us closer to parity with native windows gaming.

About god damn time. Screw Khronos and their stupid agenda, I didn't realize they didn't add it on purpose, I thought they were just too busy thinking how to do it. But now that I know they reject it due to design idiocy reasons, just fuck them.

People want it now for wrappers. It is practical, and that's all that matters. Just add it already.

And who the fuck cares? Fuck this "design purity" bullshit. I'm sick of it honestly.

And seriously, how can you write this? How long have you been waiting for this? Six months at best? API design and software architecture takes time, especially when this needs a cross-vendor effort.
About the agenda, you obviously have your own as well. But you must realize that decisions like this must not be taken lightly. One common criticism of openGL was the number of ways one could perform the same thing. Here, the *right* way is encouraged, as you cannot rely on this workaround. I certainly hope people won't, at least. And you must consider the side effects of starting to follow other platform's API choices. This remains strategy.

Even when I did not know about or use linux I thought Direct3D was absolute garbage. I always hated games that used it and thought it was the reason they where so buggy. Fuck DirectX too, I may not be a programmer but I know it's shit.Last edited by creative; 09 September 2018, 09:27 AM.

You want the same shit to happen to Vulkan?
But wait, Apple and bunch of other fuckers are part of Khronos group. Sounds like intentional sabotage to me, I bet they're the ones who whine about new improvements saying they "need more time" to evaluate them and so on, to stall it as much as possible.
