  3. dxvk

    Vulkan-based implementation of D3D8, 9, 10 and 11 for Linux / Wine

    Project mention: Whisky is no longer actively maintained | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-04-09

    I think this should cover it.

  4. renderdoc

    RenderDoc is a stand-alone graphics debugging tool.

    Project mention: Ask HN: What are good high information density UIs (screenshots, apps, sites) | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-05-08

    Tracy [1] is the first thing that comes to my mind, then RenderDoc [2].

    After that Visual Studio while debugging. In general, I think graphical debuggers and profiling tools do a relatively good job of packing lots of information into many, small windows.

  10. KlayGE

    KlayGE is a cross-platform open source game engine with plugin-based architecture.

  11. ShaderConductor

    ShaderConductor is a tool designed for cross-compiling HLSL to other shading languages

    Project mention: Shadertoys Ported to Rust GPU | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-04-12

    I think this is the way forward for shading languages.

    I'm writing a simple renderer with an OpenGL, Metal and Vulkan backend. I avoid using any shader transpiler such as Microsoft's ShaderConductor [0], as this adds a huge dependency to the project. As a hacky solution I'm simply maintaining a copy for each shading language (Metal Shading Language, GLSL, etc.). For a focused non-gaming project that seems easier.

    However, having a compiler that compiles a subset of the programming language I'm using for a project (such as Rust or C++) to the individual shading languages, sounds amazing, and would make shader writing when not using a game engine more joyful.

  12. DiligentCore

    A modern cross-platform low-level graphics API

    Project mention: Diligent Engine introduces WebGPU back end | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-09-04

  13. OGSR-Engine

  14. Reshade-Unlocked

    A generic post-processing injector for games and video software.

  15. Nikola

    A cross-platform framework for window creation, input handling, and rendering using OpenGL 4.5+ (by FrodoAlaska)

    Project mention: New Year, New Game Engine - Nikola Engine Devlog 0 | dev.to | 2025-02-26

    Currently, as I'm sure you can tell, the engine is still in its infant state. It can do a lot. Currently, it can open a window, accept input, render pixels, load models, and images, and render them even. But there is still a long way to go. For example, audio and fonts are still not fully implemented. While things like entities are not even a thing yet. However, if you are interested, I do have some interesting showcases on my website. You can also go to the engine's repo to check the code for yourself if you are interested.
