LunarG has enhanced the Vulkan Configurator, also known as vkconfig! Read on for links to a LunarG white paper and a video demo that introduce enhancements to this powerful Vulkan developer tool.
The Vulkan Configurator, also called vkconfig, is a powerful, easy-to-use Vulkan developer tool that manages your system’s automatically loaded (or implicit) layer environment and essentially puts you in charge of your system’s Vulkan implicit layer configuration.
Vkconfig provides several valuable features: 1) allows developers to override the layers’ configuration used by Vulkan applications at runtime, 2) allows the layer configuration to be overridden using vkconfig globally or for a selected list of Vulkan applications, and 3) allows developers to use layers from user-defined directories.
Vkconfig is delivered with the Vulkan SDK and is available for Windows, Linux, and macOS operating systems.
We’ve prepared both a video demo and a white paper to help you get the most out of our Vulkan Configurator improvements.
Please contact LunarG to let us know what you think of the new Vulkan Configurator or to offer suggestions for future releases. The best way to reach us is via our GitHub repository using the link shown below:
