How to make the game run DX11/12

Here is a small difference between DX11 and DX12 (worst performance in my opinion).

Video comparison

Here is the DX11 version

And here is DX12

To make it possible

To make it possible, you need to go to the game options (on Steam) properties>Launch options and put either -dx11 or if you want to test/stress your gpu: -dx12


It should look like that and that's it.

Make it vulkan/windows 7 possible fix

First, you need to download this file:dxvk-1.10.2

DX to Vulkan[github.com]

Then, go to your game files ( C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stray\Hk_project\Binaries\Win64 )

and apply like this:

r.RayTracing=False - now i can playing in 4K, 3060ti with 50-60fps (all in max)

It works on Win7 without dxvk, no need to install the fix.

@joridiculous hi, I'm sorry but I do not find any dll inside dxkv-1.10.2 or .1. Has the extension changed? I can see only .cpp or .h extensions :(

It's engine.ini , not engini.ini of course...

Stray in DirectX 12 runs with ray tracing by default. To disable it, just open your engini.ini (found in C:\Users\***yourusernamehere***\AppData\Local\Hk_project\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor ) and paste this at the bottom:

[SystemSettings]
r.RayTracing=False

Your framerate should be back to decent values, even better than DirectX 11 (at least for me).
