Any word on DirectX 12?

JonnyTaunton · Jan 22, 2017

I was just wondering if this game will ever be ported over to DirectX 12? I mean I have literally no idea how easy or difficult it would be to port over from DirectX 11, but it would be cool to better utilise the CPU in a physics based game like BeamNG.

True, but you don't have to drop support for DX11, look at battlefield 1. It would drop support for DX10 but most games today don't even support DX10 anymore

My 7950 from 2011 supports DX12, however most laptop chips that are a few years old don't. As for the port, who knows how difficult/time consuming it would be, I wouldn't be surprised if it happens in the future, but I can think of thousands of things that need doing first.

We are looking into it, but don't expect such change in the near future.
Let's say it's in our 'under-consideration' list.
