AMD Vulkan | Fixed

[ghost]

I saw a while ago HorseMenu had issues with AMD GPU's and bought one specifically for this reason. I've managed to find a workaround although currently not optimized very well, it works!

Anyways, the main thingy with this is, it doesn't actually hook anything. It's an overlay which has its pros and cons. Now my question to you is, should I put time and effort into perfecting this to contribute this to HorseMenu or do the cons outweigh the pros?

I'm gonna list them out for you:

Pros:

• DX11 Overlay so rendering textures is much much easier
• Can be reinjected more than 2 times unlike DX12 and Vulkan API
• Can be invisible to OBS if the user wants it to be (good for sneaky streamers)
• Way better performance
• Would replace both the DX12 and Vulkan renderer, reducing the file to like 300 lines

Cons:

• It is an overlay, this means you cannot run the game in full screen, only in windowed or borderless
• Tabbing out of the game makes it so the menu is invisible (intentional)
• It only works if it is the foreground window, I have not tested this yet but it could be that the discord overlay and this one would fight for which one would be on top.
• ImGui inputs have to be replicated

Now as you can see in the video the mouse is glitchy, I already have a fix for this, but it will take me some time to perfect it hence this post to see if it is in fact worth it.

This is some very good research. Thank you for the contribution and I will look into it later.
