Vkd3d 1.0 Released the Direct3D 12 to Vulkan translation library

The Wine team is proud to announce that release 1.0 of vkd3d, the Direct3D 12 to Vulkan translation library, is now available.

This is the first release of vkd3d. A lot of Direct3D 12 features are still missing and bugs are expected. The current version was tested mainly with demo applications. A number of features that are being worked on have been deferred to the next development cycle. This includes in particular geometry and tessellation shaders support, various shader translation improvements, as well as various improvements for core Direct3D 12 methods.
