Dear UNIGINE Users,

DirectX 12 is now regarded as the primary rendering API on Windows, and we are considering removing the legacy DirectX 11 renderer from the engine to facilitate a smoother transition to new features, such as ray tracing and bindless textures. Maintaining two separate code paths has become increasingly challenging, and if you do not have a practical need for DirectX 11, we would be happy to eliminate it.

We are curious whether you still have strict requirements to use the DirectX 11 API in your projects or when delivering your projects to customers. Are you utilizing any DX11-exclusive features to integrate with third-party software that is also limited to DX11? We would like to understand if there are any factors preventing you from transitioning to DirectX 12 as the default.

Please vote and share your thoughts in the comments!
