How do you Force Directx 11 (Solved)
For this game. I've tried the following launch options. --use-d3d11 and -dx11. they don't work for me. do they work for you?

UPDATE

it does work for me. I was doing it wrong before. the launch option is
dx11 / --use-d3d11

If you're on linux or steamdeck you put it AFTER launch options that ends with %command% Here's an example.

gamemoderun MANGOHUD=1 %command% dx11 / --use-d3d11

after the new update is not working for me, my game closes before it even gets to the intro video, is there a way to fix this?

i'll try the thing that infamous geezer suggested - really hope they didn't disable it, DX11 performance is quite a lot better (for my rig)

another thing that helped me get about 10% performance was disabling Control Flow Guard in exploit protection settings for windows defender (windows 11) - just for that app

I tried it today and it enabled DX11 in my system. I was using the default game setting and not sure what they did but I have been having crashes constantly. Will try this DX11 and report back. BTW, I'm using a 3080 10Gb and 5800X3D.

there's some guy on youtube that downloaded som app to enable dx11 it worked for me i went from like 60-70 fps to 90-100 but im not sure it works anymore because my game is back on 70 fps
In ArrowHead folder, delete file in shader cache if u keep cache stills store and count in that folder.

♥♥♥♥ i didnt even realize it was probably going back to dx 12 since the intro scenes still take aminute to load the characters body

Why am i getting better performance on DX11 with a 3060?
