What is the Preview for GL_AMD_MESH_SHADER
What's the expectation for the AMD equivalent of GL_NV_MESH_SHADER, coming? It was said by AMD that the only missing piece was the Software, Driver wise it's good to go. AMD also said Khronos plans to add it. So my question is when is it coming next quarter maybe?
That are exciting news. Can I know, where did AMD say these things? I am only aware of: https://community.amd.com/t5/opengl-vulkan/is-mesh-shader-support-planned-for-opengl/m-p/649970/highlight/true#M5068
AMD is working on the GL_NV_MESH_SHADER extension and will be available in upcoming quaterly releases. Khronos WG has discussion on this issue, will be looking forward if we can get any future ARB extension for vulkan and ogl requirement for this extension.
I opened an issue in AMD's new driver forum on GitHub and already received a response. They are aiming for the end of the year. Maybe you should comment or react so they see that this matters to us.
