Anyone try a DirectX 12 game yet?

I am not sure what this means?
you are missing these features:
```

• DirectX Raytracing (DXR): Simulates how light interacts with objects, creating realistic lighting, reflections, and shadows.
• Variable Rate Shading (VRS): Dynamically adjusts the shading rate for different parts of a scene, improving performance without sacrificing visual quality.
• Mesh Shaders: Enables the GPU to intelligently control level of detail and tessellation, allowing for complex environments with a large number of objects.
• Sampler Feedback: Optimizes texture sampling, reducing GPU load and improving performance.

```
Still direct3d is enabled and you can use the GPU.
```
[WGL] OpenGL vendor string: Parallels and Apple
[WGL] OpenGL renderer string: Parallels using Apple M4 Pro (Compat)
[WGL] OpenGL version string: 4.1 Metal - 89.3
[WGL] OpenGL shading language version string: 4.10
```

 

What it means is that the few games
I tried that lost a requirement of DirectX 12 (and others report in various forums) STILL DONT WORK UNDER PARALLELS AND WINDOWS 11. Not too hard to understand but thanks.

 

I just installed and tried "The Talos Principle Reawakened". It does not run because of "DirectX 12" not being installed. If I type dxdiag in the start I am told otherwise!!

 

Most DirectX 12 games and utilities don't work. No ETA on when (if) Parallels will support it. The Talos Principle requires DirectX 12 with no way to make it use DirectX 11.

CrossOver runs DirectX 12 games (but not all). It runs The Talos Principle fine (originally had a lot of missing graphics and graphic glitches).

Surprisingly the SteamDeck has far better game support even though it uses CrossOver based technology to run Windows games on Linux.
