There are parts that are already running through Gen12, the actual issue at moment is the render pipeline needs to run through both the legacy and the new pipeline on the main thread at moment making performance worse than would be once they get it all moved over to Gen12.
It was Vulkan that is not going to be enabled till everything is transferred across which was suggesting to be about 6month after Gen12. To note the dates taken from a post about full Gen12 being finished was suggesting end of this year latest but has been updated with no dates shown now.

@pete910 how is this doing regarding nix support at the moment?
It works well tbh. Be glad when vulkan and a native client gets done though I genrally get more FPS than Humbug anyway so there's no perf lost as such.
So I've read, looked on spectrum about it earlier , When you getting on discord????

i mean you do have more than 1 core

Clearly they added this because its the fist AMD CPU with AVX, which as they say is now required, but i wouldn't call it a Star Citizen capable CPU, or Sandy Bridge for that matter tho it does stand a better chance.

Maybe those performance improvements are just that good

doesn’t help that his is dyslexic and can’t count binary. His does 0s and 0s

Although at face value this update seems light on features, Under the hood it is one of the most significent updates and paves way for Server meshing and gen 12 core tech

They have done a good job with the Gen 12 stuff so far, performance is pretty good now, frame rates are up, a lot in some places, i'm entirely bottlenecked by the GPU now.
I had never seen 100+ FPS in 3.16.1, no where near, if your away from high GPU load areas now that's common place.
Deeply impressed with what CIG have done here, and they aren't done yet.

Massively better FPS for me (3700x, 32GB RAM, 3080) - everything just feels far smoother, more responsive and less 'janky'. Impressed!

After so many years why is this game still in alpha?
Soldato
You're not allowed to ask that. It upsets the cultists.
After 12 years on this forum plus a considerable 21.5k posts, do you really need to ask that question?
