Earlier this month the company has announced full support of DirectX 11 features in its top-notch 3D middleware. Updated Unigine engine supports Windows 7 and has successfully incorporated the groundbreaking DirectX 11 capabilities, including the following core features:
- Hardware tessellation
- DirectCompute
- Shader Model 5.0
Unigine has published the second release of Heaven Benchmark, a DirectX 11 GPU benchmark based on the Unigine engine. Heaven Benchmark 2.0 is more complex than the first edition, it features a heavier tessellation load, major engine optimizations, new objects, more dynamic lights, and other improvements.
Changelog:
- Heavier tessellation load
- Several major optimizations of the engine
- Added new elaborated objects in the world
- Physics-driven flags
- More dynamic lights
- Enhancements of some old assets
- Introduced "moderate" and "extreme" tessellation modes
