This session is the first in a three-part series about how to bring your high-end game to Mac. Depending on the hardware you are using, Vulkan can improve FPS rates by 10% or more with no loss of visual quality. My name is Aiswariya, and Im very excited to talk to you about bringing your game to the Mac. Red Dead Redemption 2 works well with DX12, but Vulkan has been shown to provide a better gunslinging experience. DirectX 12 Ultimate takes games to a whole new level of realism with support for ray tracing, mesh shaders, variable rate shading, and sampler feedback. However, it was derived from an older AMD API called Mantle, so it isn’t uncommon for Vulkan to work a bit better with AMD GPUs than with NVIDIA cards. Vulkan can be used with both AMD or NVIDIA graphics cards. It was released in January 2022 and arrived with several improvements over version 1.2, including support for Raytracing. Vulkan 1.3 is, at the time of writing, the latest stable version of the API. Graphics APIs are used to allow software such as games or 3D rendering tools to fully access the capabilities of the GPU.

Without standardization of this type, software developers would be required to provide individual drivers for every possible GPU and hardware configuration.Īn API (Application Programming Interface) is software that allows two programs to efficiently communicate. Epic Games claims this will result in higher and steadier frame rates. Vulkan is a dedicated graphics API, whereas DirectX is a collection of APIs that includes a graphics API (Direct3D.) They both feature standardized tools, making it much easier to develop software that will work with the wide variety of graphics cards and other hardware inside our computers. What you need to know The latest Fortnite update has given PC players the option to enable Microsoft DirectX 12.
Vulkan and DirectX are APIs ( Application Programming Interfaces) and offer two different solutions to the same problem: ensuring software, such as a videogame, can communicate with your PC hardware, and vice versa, in the most efficient way. The answers aren’t completely straightforward, but we’ll tell you what you need to know. If you are using DirectX 12 and having issues playing Fortnite you can switch to DirectX 11. But it isn’t always obvious what the difference is, nor which one will provide the best gaming experience. Which DirectX version is best for Fortnite. More PC games than ever allow players to choose between DirectX 12 and Vulkan. You should test both and choose the one that works best for the game you want to play. Using Vulkan can result in a noticeably higher frame rate for many games, but DirectX 12 tends to provide a more stable experience.
