Metal emulate geometry shaders using compute shaders

Question

I\'m trying to implement voxel cone tracing in Metal. One of the steps in the algorithm is to voxelize the geometry using a geometry shader. Metal does not have geometry shaders

Answer 1

Unfortunately there is no way to do this (and other things) in Metal, without going into unneeded complications. The API lacks critical features that are common in Vulkan, OpenGL and DirectX...
