Most of the processing that happens in your machine happens in the CPU, as it’s a component that’s designed to resolve almost any computation it it’s given. Readers familiar with how GPUs work should feel free to skip the next section. The reason why these error messages can be vague is because of the inherent differences between CPUs and GPUs. After a crash, we’re often left with little information besides a cryptic error message.
When the GPU crashes, it can be difficult to determine exactly what went wrong. Many of these mistakes happen GPU-side, which means they are a lot more difficult to fix. But even though this enables developers to write code that’s substantially faster and more efficient, this comes at a cost: the API is more complicated, which means that there are more opportunities for mistakes. In this article, we’ll explore how these features work and offer a recap of what we added in Spring Creator’s Update.īut first, let’s cover how debugging a game or a program utilizing the GPU is different from debugging other programs.Īs covered previously, DirectX 12 offers developers unprecedented low-level access to the GPU (check out Matt Sandy’s detailed post for more info). In the Fall Creator’s Update, we’ve added features that make it easier for developers to debug their code.
Simply put, our consoles work best with our software: DirectX 12 is perfectly suited for native 4K games on the Xbox One X. Many games now run on the latest version of our groundbreaking API and we’re confident that even more anticipated, high-end AAA titles will take advantage of DirectX 12.ĭirectX 12 is ideal for powering the games that run on PC and Xbox, which as of yesterday is the most powerful console on the market. Today, developers using DirectX 12 can build games that have better graphics, run faster and that are more stable than ever before. Since then, we’ve heard every bit of feedback and improved the API to enhance stability and offer more versatility.
We’ve come a long way since we launched DirectX 12 with Windows 10 on July 29, 2015.
