Hi! Can I test dozen? #104

Closed phasermaniac83 closed 2 years ago

phasermaniac83 commented 2 years ago

I 'm in win10. I downloaded 22.1.0 vesrsion and wanted to test dozen, but I don't see anything in the readme. How should I use it? something like @set gallium_driver=dzn or what? thanks

See the section for lavapipe. The deployment process is the same for all Vulkan drivers regardless of GPU acceleration support being available or not.

So, I have to install vulkan runtime and use vulkan loader? I dont understand, sorry

pal1000 commented 2 years ago

Yes, but you may already have vulkan runtime on your system if you have a GPU capable of running latest graphics driver from Intel, AMD or NVIDIA. Vulkan runtime is included with graphics drivers.

Thanks. I have not vulkan because my ati hd 6950 card doesn't support it. Thats why I wanted to try dozen, doesn't it translate vulkan to d3d12?

doesn't it translate vulkan to d3d12?

It does and unfortunately your system doesn't meet the requirements for GPU acceleration so dozen will be slow.
