Выпуск D7VK 1.12, реализации Direct3D 3-7 поверх API Vulkan

Опубликован выпуск проекта D7VK 1.12, развивающего реализацию графических API Direct3D 3, 5, 6 и 7, предложенных компанией Microsoft в 1996, 1997, 1998 и 1999 годах. D7VK работает через трансляцию вызовов в API Vulkan и позволяет при помощи Wine запускать в Linux ретро игры, завязанные на API Direct3D 3, 5, 6 и 7. Код проекта написан на языке C++ и распространяется под лицензией Zlib. В качестве основы при разработке использован код бэкенда d3d9 от проекта DXVK - D7VK преобразует API Direct3D 3, 5, 6 и 7 в вызовы Direct3D 9, которые затем транслируются в API Vulkan. Разработчик не намерен добиваться включения D7VK в состав DXVK, как это было с реализациями Direct3D 8 и Direct3D 9 поверх Vulkan.

Memory price hikes cool for consumers but AI keeps server costs climbing

Memory prices for DRAM and NAND Flash are projected to continue rising in the third quarter of 2026, though at a slower pace than previous quarters. TrendForce forecasts conventional DRAM contract prices to increase by 13% to 18% quarter-over-quarter, while NAND Flash prices are expected to rise by 10% to 15%. This moderation is primarily driven by consumer electronics manufacturers reaching their affordability limits rather than an improvement in the overall supply.

Cisco patches decades-old vulnerabilities in ClamAV scanning engine

Cisco's Talos group has released critical security updates for ClamAV, a widely used open-source antivirus engine integrated into mail gateways and endpoint security tools. The patches address seven distinct vulnerabilities found in versions 1.5.3 and 1.4.5 of the software. Several of these flaws have existed within the codebase for nearly two decades, highlighting long-standing risks in legacy parsing logic.

На ReactOS запустили Half-Life 2 на реальном железе

На операционной системем ReactOS удалось запустить Half-Life 2 на реальном компьютере. Команда проекта сообщила в X, что игра «also runs great» в ReactOS, демонстрацию подготовил энтузиаст Aotori Hibiki.
Демонстрация опубликована на YouTube в ролике Longplay | Half-Life 2 running on ReactOS on real hardware. По данным Phoronix, игра запускалась на ночной сборке ReactOS с видеокартой GeForce GTX 960, устаревшим Windows-драйвером NVIDIA 368.61 и драйверами Creative Sound Blaster Audigy. При этом в описании ролика на YouTube указана версия NVIDIA 368.81, поэтому с точным номером драйвера есть небольшая нестыковка.
Событие особенно интересно на фоне того, что всего около месяца назад ReactOS добралась до запуска первой Half-Life. Тогда, как писал Phoronix, игра работала на системе с Intel Sandy Bridge и GeForce 8400GS. Теперь проект показал уже Half-Life 2 — заметно более тяжёлую игру на движке Source.
Одновременно ReactOS постепенно продвигается и в сторону совместимости с более новыми версиями Windows. Ранее в проект добавили первый системный вызов NT6, что Phoronix назвал первым шагом к поддержке Windows Vista и более поздних выпусков. ReactOS всё ещё остаётся экспериментальной системой, но запуск Half-Life 2 показывает, что её стек драйверов уже способен справляться не только с простыми программами, но и с полноценными 3D-играми.

📰 Ryzen AI Developer Platform: AMD's Own Linux Distribution Built Atop Debian

With the AMD Ryzen AI Halo developer platform there is the option of ordering this Ryzen AI Max+ mini PC with either Microsoft Windows 11 or "Linux OS". When receiving a AMD Ryzen AI Halo review sample last month, I fully expected it to just be an Ubuntu LTS install with ROCm preloaded. I was quite surprised when powering it up to find that it's an OS called the AMD Ryzen AI Developer Platform 1 "Rex" and is based on Debian Linux.

First end-to-end AI-powered ransomware attack has been spotted

Researchers have identified a ransomware campaign dubbed JadePuffer that was executed almost entirely by an autonomous AI agent. The attack targeted an internet-facing Langflow instance by exploiting CVE-2025-3248, a remote code execution vulnerability in the LLM application framework. Once inside, the agent moved laterally to production servers to harvest credentials, establish persistence, and encrypt over 1,300 database records.

Порт F-15 Strike Eagle II на SDL3 и OpenGL

Опубликован проект f15se2-ex 0.1.0 — порт авиасимулятора MicroProse F-15 Strike Eagle II на современные системы. Проект основан на реконструированных исходных кодах версии F-15 Strike Eagle II v451.03 с дополнением Desert Storm Expansion Disk 1991 года.
Цель проекта — перенести игру на современные архитектуры, сохранив дух оригинала и улучшив техническую часть. В качестве графического и оконного слоя используется SDL3, для вывода 3D-графики — OpenGL, звук работает через эмуляцию AdLib на базе Nuked-OPL3.
На текущий момент игра полностью проходима. Реализованы перенос рендеринга и ввода на SDL3, работающий звук, поддержка джойстика и вывод графики через OpenGL.
