Is there a way i can force DX12 on start up?
I tried doing the steam launch option but it doesnt work. Without DX12 i get 40-60fps in city, with DX12 im getting 50-70.

I think it is going to stay that way till the devs realize they need to rework the graphics menu, it is kinda buggy (sometimes some settings won't save). We are currently missing a directx switch and anti-aliasing one aswell. There are a lot of wrong things with the in game menus tbh...

Nooby as I am, I have to ask:
Where do you add this command line?

right click on scum in your library, select "properties". In the general tab select "set launch options...", there you paste the -dx12

Dear Bunny,
How can I force to start in DX11, in order to avoid clicking extra tab at the start? Shall I add
"-dx11" command line?

If you just double click on the Desktop shortcut it will use DX11 by default....

This is true, the DX11 is the default option.
