Vulkan API – Feedback, Known Issues, and FAQ

when using vulcan, fps drops to 9 when with direct3d 66 68 on the Wcusa card

 

For me this may be the release where I switch over to Vulkan fully. Gives me 20% more frames over DX11 from a quick test. Finally 8GB VRAM aren't a roadblock, thanks for your optimization work!

 

BeamNG.drive 0.31.0.0 0xC0000374 STATUS_HEAP_CORRUPTION

This is on version 0.31 on Iris XE integrated graphics. I am aware that it is somewhat buggy on Intel integrated graphics, but it used to at least start somewhat.

Hardware:
i5-1135G7
Iris XE 80 EU on the 31.0.101.5074 drivers (also occured on older drivers from June)
32 GB of RAM
I did clear my cache

 

Congrats) Just have to wait for HDR support to play vulkan mode comfortably, developers please, that's all I'm asking for

 

That and the intel section, HD 500 only supports vulkan on Linux, not Windows.

 

It might just be for compute then, because another set of software I use and support that has vulkan compute is very hit or miss on HD 500 graphics, and usually I suggest updating their GPU drivers when seeing it.

But good to know that it does work on Windows now.
Im also surprised it stopped working now, I wonder what changed between .30 and .31 as it at least somewhat ran

 

I would like to know what it is) if it works, then I will stop talking about HDR mode for a long time). How to enable it, is there any instruction? Where to go "nvidia"? in version 0.30 you didn't tell me anything like that, you said "auto hdr" only works in "dx" mode

 

Vulkan has never worked for me. It freezes when I begin to load a map, and I am forced to restart the game. I don't have Intel.

 

Launch the game with Vulkan still not letting me to lower the resolution from 1080p, in DX11 i can

 

oh big thanks for the workaround

 

So with 0.31, I've definitely noticed a difference, and Vulkan runs way more smoothly and reliably! I have, however, noticed that my fps is still slightly worse on Vulkan, while my CPU, GPU, and VRAM are all not being fully utilized, compared to DirectX. In DirectX, my GPU is at 100%, and I get around 100 FPS on Utah, but on Vulkan, with only 20%-30% GPU usage, and ~2.2GB/4GB VRAM usage, I get around 10 FPS less (this is on Low-Mid graphics quality). Now, really anything above 60 FPS I'm happy with, but it would be nice to be able to max out at a higher FPS if my system's resources can handle it.

Here are some screenshots (DirectX on top, Vulkan on bottom):

 

when using vulcan on a wcusa map, my performance drops to 9 frames per second when in direct3d 66 - 68.

 

Vulkan still seems to not be able to initialise for me, just stuck in background with around 10% CPU usage

It's working! Thanks bro!!!

 

3 FPS average on Vulkan WCUSA

 

on wcusa 9 fps on utah 80 fps without traffic and 22 with traffic,when on dx11 68 on wsusa and 80 on utah 40 50 with traffic

 

Have you tested in Italy?
