Star Swarm

[libcg]

Meta issue for the Star Swarm benchmark based on the Nitrous engine.

• Working as of 0.4.0

Interesting, which native libraries I need to use to run Star Swarm successfuly, I get segfault on the same address for both Mantle and D3D11 backends on Linux, for Windows it obviously runs fine. It happens when the program calls memcpy to this fixed address (as destination) from the trace, but never allocates it (for Mantle backend trace is the same).

Unhandled exception: page fault on write access to 0x2407c40fb in 64-bit code (0x0000000000bac54f).
Backtrace:

It does work on Proton though.

It's not working for me on Nvidia on v0.4.0:

My Nvidia bails out earlier:

W/00000024/grWsiWinGetDisplays: semi-stub
wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF at address 0000000070BCA5C8 (thread 0024), starting debugger...

This is related to #8

[libcg]

@xatornet RTX GPUs on Windows won't hit #8, but as you can see the game is trying to use an image format that the driver doesn't support. There's not much I can do.

[Cherser-s]

Well, regardless of render pass count, why FPS is so low? Does the benchmark write descriptor sets all the time or something?

[libcg]

Yeah, pretty much...

>30fps on my old radeon R9 290 on low preset 07a6f63

Thats actually looks nice, since ti ran on the default non-oc settings for my gpu.
