Development selection of ID developers: Vulkan is not worse than DX12

Microsoft's DX12 seems to be the first choice for the PC game graphics card API, because the market share of Windows is very high, and the DirectX and the Windows system also have the relationship between behind.Having said that, DirectX's new alternatives appear on the market, which are available for producers to choose from, which is relatively open source, such as Vulkan.

It may be because of the popularity of Windows systems, because the inextricable connections between DirectX and Windows systems, or because of Microsoft's push for DirectX, and now push for Windows 10, plus the current Xbox One is alsoSupporting DirectX, various reasons lead to DirectX, instead of Vulkan, the vast majority of development groups.In this regard, Axel GNEITING, the engine programmer of the ID studio, expressed disapproval and disapproval.

He said on Twitter that developers chose DX12 better than Vulkan, "It doesn't make sense at all." Then he pointed out in the response to netizens that Windows7 is the main force of the current PC game market, and DX12 is not compatible with Windows77Therefore, if the production team chooses DX to save time and effort, use a unified code library, it is no reason, because even if DX is used, there are still two different codes in the end.He also said that Windows 10 and DX12 are also very different, and they also need two different sets.

He also observed that some of the benefits provided by DX12 are actually not unique, and Vulkan will not lag too much in performance.

More technical details, the author is a foreign man, but the question we have to ask here is, why do he love Vulkan so much? Is there any obstacle to him by using DX?, Now I need solidarity.Because the closed source APIs such as DX will block the development team in Microsoft's own ecosystem and coding environment, he is also reasonable to support Vulkan.However, the benefits of DX may also be its closedness. Only in this way can Microsoft invest in it.The open source of Vulkan has caused no system big guys to dare to incorporate them into Majesty. Everything can only be regarded as the freedom of free governmentist faction.
