[Among Us] Lighting Issues

Hey, I was wondering if anyone experienced this so far. Please check the image and see what I'm seeing. I don't have any problems running or playing the game at all, it's just that inline light effects don't work properly. You know the shiny "reveal" effects of lights when you walk in Among Us right, that doesn't work. Maybe there's a way to fix? Tried both with DXVK on and off, it's the same. Logs say:

The application uses geometry shaders, but the Vulkan implementation does not support them.

016c:fixme:d3d:wined3d_device_context_resolve_sub_resource Multisample resolve is not fully supported for typeless formats (dst_format WINED3DFMT_R8G8B8A8_TYPELESS, src_format WINED3DFMT_R8G8B8A8_TYPELESS, format WINED3DFMT_R8G8B8A8_UNORM).

Well, there's your issue. Up to MoltenVK to implement this feature

stormy-gold•3y ago

I believe its macs themselves (or maybe macos/metal) that dont support geometry shaders right? I didn't think it could be fixed Maybe I'm wrong though

xenial-black•3y ago

nah among us doesn't run through Metal, but it needs DirectX or Vulkan, macOS doesn't support DirectX as it is proprietary and Vulkan isn't supported by macOS so we need to use MoltenVK which is a translation layer to convert Vulkan instructions into Metal instructions so it can render properly as Metal is supported by macOS (ofc) and seems like MoltenVK doesn't support geometry shaders (even if vulkan does), so it doesn't convert those instructions and that's why it's buggy

stormy-gold•3y ago

yeah i know i thought moltenvk cant convert it because metal doesnts upport them im probably wrong actually though

xenial-black•3y ago

after searching a little bit, seems like Metal 1, 2 and 3 aren't supporting geometry shaders, that's why it's considered as obselete/deprecated tho, not that used anymore, but among us do use them

stormy-gold•3y ago

ah so i was right

xenial-black•3y ago

yeah

stormy-gold•3y ago

wow thats amazing, i usually have no clue what im talking about xD Especially since ive never used a mac lol

xenial-black•3y ago

lmao

exotic-emerald•2y ago

has there been any change for this issue?

jolly-crimson•2y ago

yes actually, asahi linux supports geometery shaders :CatYeah: (im just joking here, I wouldn't use asahi for gaming yet)

exotic-emerald•2y ago

but not on mac 😕

jolly-crimson•2y ago

yeah, that's apple for you

exotic-emerald•2y ago

I might keep playing on a VM for now then, thanks

jolly-crimson•2y ago

have you tried GPTK btw?

exotic-emerald•2y ago

yes, I tried the Whisky version with Heroic, it still has the same lighting issue

correct-apricot•2y ago

why dont you just download the original version from the app store they have it on the macos app store

stormy-gold•2y ago

Whisky should be the same

exotic-emerald•5mo ago

That is only the iPad version, which doesn’t allow keyboard input. The resolution is not adjustable. Using Heroic, wine or any derivative is better. Well, for now running it on VM is better due to this issue the lighting issue is fixed when using Kegworks Winery using engine WS12WineCX24.0.7 and DXVK enabled

extended-salmon•5mo ago

huh. I actually thought this might never get solved but it looks like that moltenvk update was enough(?)
