NVIDIA has released a new set of graphics drivers for Vulkan developers on Windows and Linux.
Changelog for Windows and Linux:
– Support Vulkan API version v1.0.4
– Fix device lost issue with some MSAA resolves
– Fix vkGetQueryPoolResults() when queryCount=0
– Fix OpImageQuerySample with images
– Fix OpVectorExtractDynamic issues with doubles
– Fix handling of sparse image miptail when the whole image fits within a page
– Improve vkAcquireNextImageKHR() conformance to WSI spec
– Improve GL_KHR_vulkan_glsl compatibility when using GLSL directly
– Improve GPU texturing performance in some cases
– Improve vkAllocateDescriptorSets()/vkFreeDescriptorSets() performance in some cases
– Improve vkCmdBindDescriptorSets() performance in some cases
– Improve vkCmdCopyImage() performance in some cases
According to VK-Z, R356.45 (and likely R355.00.29, not checked) add one new Vulkan extension at the Vulkan device level:
- VK_KHR_sampler_mirror_clamp_to_edge
You can download R356.45 and R355.00.29 fron THIS PAGE.
The OpenGL support is the same than in R356.43.
Here is the Vulkan report from VK-Z 0.1.2 (my dev system has a GTX 960 + GTX 750 on Win10 64-bit:
