DirectX 12 Ultimate samplesĭ3D12 Mesh Shaders: This sample demonstrates how Mesh shaders can be used to increase the flexibility and performance of the geometry pipeline.ĭ3D12 Variable Rate Shading: This sample demonstrates how shading rate can be reduced with little or no reduction in visual quality, leading to “free” performance.ĭ3D12 Raytracing: This sample demonstrates how DirectX Raytracing (DXR) brings a new level of graphics realism to video games, previously only achievable in the movie industry.

By doing this, we hope to make it easier to get started with DirectX 12. For example, the ExecuteIndirect sample will show you just enough about execute indirect to get started with that feature without diving too deep into multiengine whereas the nBodyGravity sample will delve into multiengine without touching on the execute indirect feature etc. In the Samples directory, you will find samples that attempt to break off specific features and specific usage scenarios into bite-sized chunks.
