doom 2016 has been updated with the vulkan API

Oh gee, how will this affect my 60fps monitor?? Guess I better buy a 144hz one with an extra gpu, larger PSU, new motherboard....

Kinda sad how apparently smart 'master race' peoplez drop to their knees for a few numbers.
Thank you though, as I enjoyed a quick fap over* the mindless gore fest.

it wil be a feeding frenzy !

im only interested in vulkan because i hope it can be the directX 12 equivalent for those of use who resist the magnetic tar pit trap pull of windows 10 and want to stick with 7 or 8 for the forseeable future

Oh I never thought of it that way... sound reasoning, there.

Still, Nvidia can suck it. I'm never buying a full price current gen card from them again... might even switch over to AMD if I can get over not using sexy Geralt beard and hair physics.

Have there been any attempts to port the original Doom (the one released in 1993) to the Vulkan API?

Edit: Changed "Has" to "Have"

Edit 2: Changed "attempt" to "attempts"

keyword there being might and hope
i dont know if AMD will do that but i hope they will because the it could be a viable option to the windows 10 straggelers
and windows 7 still has the biggest market share of all windows versions

Unfortunately, Vulkan doesn't work on Windows 7 with 2GB NVidia cards. At least, not in DOOM.

Not yet, AMD only for now.
They're having trouble getting it working on Nvidia cards right now.
