Is it possible to use DXVK?

  • Hello there, I basically want to know if is it possible to use DxVK to run the game with Vulkan api, my game performs like crap in dungeons filled with mobs, and in Kokkara or Korin village, I'm talking of 15-20 fps, which is insane.
    This is funny because I know the game ran much better when I originally played it.
    Playing with DxVk if possible, should improve things, I ask instead of trying because I fear that the game detects it as a type of cheat.

  • Hey mattotk,


    The game has a bit lower fps as a tradeoff for fixing some of the bigger stutters that you would have gotten back in the day due to pop in. We're rendering ~6 times what we used to. Dxvk won't be flagged as a cheat, but due to the nature of the optimization issue causing the frame dips, it's unlikely to help much.

    Already tried it and it performs better in some places, but because its vulkan and I can use frame generation with Vulkan, but unfortunately it performs the same in the RP2 camp, where the frogs are.

    What its baffling to me its the fact that the cpu is not being pushed, I tried disabbling all cores except 1, and it gets to 100% on that core, but as soon as I activate more cores, that single core goes back to a lower % and the game performs the same on both situations, I guess this is due to the game working on a single thread, but then it shouldn't matter if all cores are enabled, 1 core should remain at 100% always. Setting graphics to the lowest doesn't help, and the gpu is barely reaching 10% use.

    I still have freezes from time to time, a 1 sec freeze, I remember this started back with W10 creators update, I would try an old version of w10 like the 2015 one, but the my graphic card doesn't have any driver for a version that old (already tried).

  • The freezing isn't a CPU issue, no, and the game is single threaded, yeah. I've optimized the new client a bit, you'll get better performance out of it, but there's still more work to do. I'm trying to get it to you guys this month but we'll see. Still a lot of bugs to look at.
