Vulkan 1.4.340 released with new extension to improve DirectX performance on Linux https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2026/01/vulkan-1-4-340-released-with-new-extension-to-improve-directx-performance-on-linux/
Today the Vulkan Working Group has released two important updates to the API and ecosystem: an entirely new Descriptor system and the Vulkan Roadmap 2026 Milestone. Initial support for these features is expected in the next Vulkan SDK release planned for Q1 2026.
These new features and more will be discussed at the forthcoming Vulkanised 2026 conference, taking place in San Diego on February 9-11.
#Pfingstsonntag vor 242 Jahren: Im Süden Islands 🇮🇸 beginnt die vulkanische Spalte Laki, unvorstellbare Mengen Lava und Asche auszustoßen. Mit weitreichenden Folgen für die Insel und die gesamte nördliche Hemisphäre:

OK, please be kind...but I've finally decided to take a stab at old-webbing: https://montyontherun.neocities.org/
In particular, I intend to go over each of the Mesa3D demos (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/demos) and read it, explore it and explore what I needed to learn.
If there is anything to be improved, I will try to submit a merge request as well.
I was already cooking this in the background, but discovering https://512kb.club/ earlier today gave me the final impetus
Por desgracia hay pocos ejemplos dignos de juegos nativos hechos de tú a tú con respecto a la versión de #Windows. La mayoría de las veces es culpa de #Unity y #Unreal; o alguno de sus completos o falta de ellos.
Un ejemplo que es la puta polla es #StreetsofRage4 que portó el amigo Ethan Lee. Es un desarrollador que ama el medio y conoce perfectamente #GNU con #Linux.
Actualizó #SDL para poder usar Wayland y permite usar #Vulkan. El juego salió en #OpenGL.
Mis dieces.
