Ask HN: Released games built on FOSS engines?
Oh, I forgot a few major ones:
https://github.com/ConfettiFX/The-Forge was used in No Man's Sky, Hades and Starfield.
https://github.com/jrouwe/JoltPhysics is the physics engine in Horizon Forbidden West.

How many semaphores do really I need?
To my understanding, every source I've read says that this should cause issues, but in practice it doesn't. What gives? Did I miss something? Here are multiple examples using the latter approach.
- So this is very likely BGS first game to use DX12

Amnesia TDD HPL2 refactor
This is a toy project that I've been working on for the past few months. Essentially, I've rewritten all the rendering code for the engine using BGFX. This means that all the fixed function OpenGL 1.2 code has been removed from the engine. BGFX supports OpenGL 3.3 and DirectX11, but there are still some rendering artifacts with DirectX11, so the engine still uses OpenGL when running on Windows. I've been considering switching to The Forge (https://github.com/ConfettiFX/The-Forge) if I want to have more control over the rendering pipeline. However, this is a complex topic with significant implications for the codebase. I've already done the hard work of eliminating clumsy abstractions in the engine and simplifying the render pipeline, so it's just a matter of deciding what direction I want to take.

Some information about the Creation Kit changes for Starfield.
So, I'm not sure if it is widely known, that Starfield is going to be running on a lot of "The Forge." The creators of The Forge says it was added to Creation Kit in 2019. This will open a LOT of new systems for Bethesda games.

libGDX is great, but I can understand if it's not for some people. This also applies to love2d, raylib and Monogame
