amazing performance increase on windows with dxvk

[joshtb86]

DXVK is on github its a wrapper that converts dx11 to vulkan somehow

i got 50-100% performance increase when using the dx11 drivers - only tested in contact so far

anyone else try this out?seems to be amazing for me

I've heard that this is better than sliced bread for improving performance. I'll check it out on my end.

What guide or steps did you take in getting this working?

I'm with #2, how did you figure out installation?

How does one install this?

This seems to be Linux only

DXVK was mainly made for Linux, but it uses .dll files that you also can use on windows. When you extract the tar (e.g. with 7zip) and copy the d3d11.dll and dxgi.dll from the 64-bit folder into Arma 3 root folder it will load it automatically.

But using this can cause a risk, especially with battleye.

I'd let others try it for a while just in case it causes any unforeseen battleye/vac ban lol

I have no idea how to use that anyway, guess that saves me and a few people for the moment :D

... This sounds too good to be true, I will keep an eye on this, could be amazing for this game.

So you're just supposed to drag and drop d3d11.dll and dxgi.dll into "\steamapps\common\Arma 3" for this to work for Windows?

gives me a launch error (0xc000009a) when I start the game

download the latest release, unzip it twice
move d3d11dll and dxgi dll to arma directory
disable battleye otherwise it thinks its an altered game
