I disable shadows cause i can't stand them not cause of performance. [Removed by Support] Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them “The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears.

" The DirectX 11 version (with shadows) performs much better than the DirectX 9 one did without shadows enabled. I strongly disagree with that, dunno if its because Im still running windows7 x64 (with a 1050ti), but the game eats my 8gb ram entirely, if I put it to DX11, becomes even worse	Posted by frinx20#2517 on Jan 27, 2019, 5:30:42 PM Quote this Post

By not having to maintain support for two versions of DirectX, we will be able to simplify a lot of code, making it faster. I'm sorry, but 2 years ago when I started playing this game, boy time flies, I had a Windows 10 computer after installing it as an OS. I had to use DirectX 9 b/c my graphics card did not support DX9 even if my computer did. Using Windows 10 would not make it better because if your graphics card does not support DIrectX 11, you get worse performance. While I do love the performance enhancements, I feel that I had to say this point in case GGG did not realize that DirectX 11 is hardware bound. God bless you. You speak the truth.
