• [ ] I have tested the sample on at least one compliant Vulkan implementation
• [ ] If the sample is vendor-specific, I have tagged it appropriately
• [ ] I have stated on what implementation the sample has been tested so that others can test on different implementations and platforms
• [ ] Any dependent assets have been merged and published in downstream modules
• [ ] For new samples, I have added a paragraph with a summary to the appropriate chapter in the samples readme

That's a nice little sample! Is it still work in progress, as the title says? Would it be easy to extend that sample by adding a non-subgroups path for comparison?

[Patryk-Jastrzebski-Mobica]

Hi @asuessenbach, Yes, I'm still working on this sample. I'm currently implementing the FFT algorithm. Next week, I plan to push another commit/change with the vertex animation ready. And as for the last question, I cannot answer you yet.

Any update on this? Having a subgroups sample would be very much appreciated :)

Any updates on this sample? Having a subgroup sample would be a great addition :)

Hi @SaschaWillems, I apologise for not updating for such a long time. Unfortunately the implementation of the sample is not yet finished. I still have some work left to do:

• implement BRDF reflections,

• fixing problems with pipeline barriers - on the Intel Iris Xe the sample runs stable, but on the RTX 2060 it crash after a few seconds,

• adding a description to the README file.

No need to apologize. Your work is very much appreciated and I'm happy to hear that this sample is coming along :)

Hi @Patryk-Jastrzebski-Mobica, we noticed there's an issue with the CLA on this one - looks like the test got confused with the login alias (kdmitruk). Can you look into this? Not quite sure what the fix is - perhaps sign the CLA again using the alias? Thanks

Hi @marty-johnson59, I will to do something about it this week. I hope to find some time in the near future to finish the sample :).
