Se simula la reflexión y refracción del agua mediante el cálculo de la trayectoria de los rayos de luz. So what does this mean for the venerable OpenGL rendering backend? Sadly, there is no next generation future for OpenGL, as it just isn’t possible to support it." En X-Plane 12 se representarán los reflejos de los objetos en las superficies de agua creadas por la lluvia en el suelo y se ha añadido de forma nativa el renderizado de las gotas de agua sobre los cristales de los aviones. The road to Vulkan and Metal wasn’t just to make the sim faster, but also pave the road for what’s to come next. In fact, it’s not just the tree tech, the new lighting and other next generation features make heavy use of features we finally have access to. Sidney Just of Laminar Research wrote on their blog, " The next generation tree tech makes heavy use of features that have only become possible for us thanks to Vulkan and Metal.
#X PLANE FLIGHT SIMULATOR SIMULATOR#
If you use this flight simulator hopefully you are using a GPU from the past number of years supporting Vulkan, since that and Metal are their rendering future - similar to that of other studios. On Monday the company began teasing their next-generation forestry/vegetation rendering support, which is tied to the use of Vulkan and Metal: That Vulkan support debuted in X-Plane 11.50 and has continued improving since and even more enhancements ahead for future releases. It was just last year that X-Plane debuted with Vulkan support after being tied to OpenGL support previously for its custom renderer developed at Laminar Research. While long tied to OpenGL, the company behind X-Plane is making it clear that the graphics rendering future is with Vulkan (and Metal when talking about Apple platforms). X-Plane is not only the most realistic flight simulator that has long offered native Linux support but it's the only instance of a Vulkan-powered flight simulator I am aware of.
