Definition

public static GraphicsDevice CreateGraphicsDevice(string projectID, string appDir)

Parameters

projectID

string
The projectID of the Unity project. Only the first call to this function uses this ID.

appDir

string

Returns

Type

Description

GraphicsDeviceThe Device API object to access NVIDIA features. If you call this function again, the function returns the same device, regardless of whether you pass in a different projectID.

Remarks

This function will instantiate the GraphicsDevice. It's safe to execute at any point when the application is alive. Since the device is a direct representation of the hardware graphics card, this method returns the same device if you call it again. If you pass in an appDir or projectID, only the first call to this method instantiates the device object using these parameters.
