In Roblox, there are some GraphicsMode and you may want to know the GraphicsMode which is the best among them. Well, in this article we are going to reveal it and also we are going to explain them one by one.
In Roblox, there are 6 graphic modes available for now. Do you know what are they? Here, we have the information of each graphics mode on Roblox.
- Automatic
This is a default graphics mode on Roblox and this option chooses the best graphics mode for your computer.
- Direct3D11
As an API Framework, this is the 11th generation of the DirectX series and it can support for Shader Model 5.0, Dynamic shader linking, additional resource types, addressable resources, geometry instancing, subroutines, coverage as pixel shader input, programmable interpolation of inputs, new texture compression formats, texture clamps to limit WDDM preload, shader conversion instructions, floating-point viewports, per-resource mipmap clamping, addressable stream output, conservative oDepth, DrawIndirect, Gather4, 16K texture limits, require 8-bits of subtexel and sub0mip precision on texture and improved multithreading.
- Direct3D9
This is the 9th generation of the DirectX series as an API Framework. This graphics mode added a new version of the High Level Shader Language support for floating point texture formats, Multiple-Element Textures, Multiple Render Targets, texture lookups in the vertex shader and stencil buffer techniques.
- Metal
This is an Apple’s 3D graphics API framework and it was added in November 5th, 2016. Then, it can improve the capabilities of GPGPU programming by introducing compute shaders.
- NoGraphics
When chosen, the game will not be rendered and instead, a Diagnostics window will show on screen. It is used to be able to diagnose issues with the graphics, in-game physics and many more.
- OpenGL
This is a cross language, cross platform application programming interface (API) to render 2D and 3D vector graphics. The API is usually used to interact with a graphics processing unit (GPU) to get hardware accelerated rendering. There are reports from users that games can run smoothly while they are using this graphics mode.
- Vulkan
It can be said that it is a new graphics mode featured on March 17th, 2017 and it is a competitor against OpenGL for most power users. Same as OpenGL, this graphics mode targets high performance realtime 3D graphics applications like video games and interactive media across all platforms and can offer higher performance and more balanced CPU/GPU usage. Vulkan has the ability to render 2D graphics applications but it is usually suited for 3D. Due to its lower CPU usage, Vulkan can distribute work better among multiple CPU cores.
Now, the question is, what is the best graphics mode among these options? We cannot say that one of them is the best for everyone because the thing that makes it best for you is your device. So, the best graphics mode that you can use for your device depends on the type of your device. In some forums, some people say that they are okay by using Direct3D series, but some others think that it is good to use OpenGL if your device is Lenovo Ideapad 320. If you do not know what you have to choose, you can choose Automatic so that Roblox will choose the best graphics mode that can work well with your device.
