DX11 ERRORS

Hello, My name is Jesse. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

Could you please provide more information? What device is this on?

TB DX11's will do the trick for me.....

Hi, Hajaan.

Thank you for posting in the Microsoft Community.



From your description, I understand that you want to choose DX12 in some games that support both DX11 and DX12, but you can only use DX11. I understand your confusion about this problem.



You mentioned that in some games, even if you can choose DX11 and DX12, the game can only use DX11. This may be caused by the following reasons:



Optimization and support of the game itself:

Not all games fully support DirectX 12 Ultimate. Even if the game allows you to choose DX12, some old games or developers have not fully implemented all the features of DX12 Ultimate, resulting in them not fully utilizing the advantages of the hardware when using DX12.



API limitations or game engine issues:

When switching between DX11 and DX12, some games may not run stably enough on DirectX 12 due to the underlying engine architecture, compatibility issues, or optimization during development, and then fall back to DX11.



We look forward to hearing from you!



Best Regards.

BF3 came up because of Dice being lame and requireing huge updates for their games.

Because BF3 is a DX11 game while you're running a console that isn't even compatible to DX11. (PS3 isn't compatible as well) What did you expect? lol.

So Far not too bad, managed to play Gears 4 and FH4 without problems, even the downloads for those games weren't long.

Metro Exodus has Issues though. Took ages to download and it doesn't support Directx11, even though the DX11 option is there it doesn't switch to it, suggesting the whole DX11 binaries are missing.
