When I tried running hologram example on my iPhone 5s(iOS 10.2), Xcode keeps printing [***MoltenVK ERROR***] VK_ERROR_FEATURE_NOT_PRESENT: vkCmdDrawIndexed(): The current device does not support drawing with a non-zero base vertex.
The kettles don’t look like they are kettles. zig-zagged edges and low frame rate.
As the error suggests, the Metal device that you are using does not support drawing with a non-zero vertex or instance base, which is used by the Hologram demo.
You require an A9X GPU (iOS_GPUFamily3_v1), or OS X/macOS (OSX_GPUFamily1_v1) to support that feature.
In your app, you can determine the availability of this feature by calling the vkGetPhysicalDeviceMetalFeaturesMVK() function as defined in vk_mvk_moltenvk.h.
