Public sdk not coming

simply put if it requires time and extra effort devs wont use it. unless paid too.

what baffles me its simple to see this.

Man please, why do you think this? It baffles me that you think this.

Mantle was built from guys who work for dice it was a devs side project.

So what you saying is because mantle is very much a dice project then is dice also charging themselves to use it?

Lol wake up.

Mantle is a product of AMD/dev collaboration, plenty articles if you googlefu or read the op.

That's how I read it but Shankly saying it is a Dice project and specifically, a Dice dev's side project

The bickering begins..

Mantle works very well in bf4, therefore i doubt DICE had anything to do with it. Theyre about as useful as a chocolate teapot.

 

[gpuerrilla]

^^ pretty well put tbf.

Read context of discussion again.

It was, man go and watch one huddy video he explains how it all began.. If you really that interested go and do your research.

Mantle started from a dice dev messing about to get more out of battlefield 2, it was in the works four years ago when amd and dice go together to bring the api to GCN. Mantle was then born..

You never seem to listen it's always this back and forth crap from you.

Find the video from huddy wasn't long ago then come back I say no more till you do.

Funny how things turn out after months of drip fed and inaccurate information.

 

[Gregster]

Not my fault if Shankly isn't clear when he types. I am not very good at deciphering "Mantle was built from guys who work for dice it was a devs side project". That doesn't say anything about working with AMD.

Maybe try being a little clearer Shankly?

When you in work speed typing, SwiftKey will do what it thinks best.

So is openGL making a comeback then?

 

[shankly1985]

Hoping more from SteamOS now

Swiftkey thinks making incoherent posts is best, obviously...

RIP Mantle, shame AMD wasted resources on Mantle instead of trying to fix the root of their problems, under performing CPUs.
