XeSS 1.1 vs 1.2 : No Infos, No Changelog/News ?

Hi,

 

recently I discovered that the new PC version of Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart has been released,

using a new,  unknown version  of Intel's  XeSS .. It might even  be the first game with that version:

 

it is using libxess.dll version 1.2.0.10 as opposed to version 1.1.0.21,

the latter being the most current/official version according to github where it's available for download:

https://github.com/intel/xess

 

I can't find any hints, notes, news whatsover regarding what has changed with this new 1.2 version,

which is very odd?

 

So, when can we expect Intel breaking silence and tell us what's new,  what has changed ?

 

Tyvm in advance.

Hello LynxRufus


In regard to the changes between XeSS 1.1vs1.2, we want to let you know that the XeSS 1.2 version is a minor version increment. A minor version increment indicates incremental changes such as optional inputs or flags. This does not change existing functionality.


We are working on publishing the details about XeSS so keep visiting https://github.com/intel/xess for updates.
