Bug fixes and Improvements

• Fixed a regression that would cause MSAA resolves to look like MSAA was not working in a number of D3D9 games.
• Improved performance in some D3D9 games by avoiding unnecessary render pass barriers, such as Dead Space 2 (PR #5112).
• Fixed the way tessellation factors are interpreted for line tessellation. This fixes particle rendering in DCS World and po...

Driver support

The Vulkan extension VK_KHR_maintenance5 is now required. DXVK has been relying on guarantees made by this extension since version 2.5, so in order to remove some maintenance burden, fallbacks that would allow older drivers to run were now removed.

Please check the driver support page on the Wiki for details....

This is a maintenance release intended to fix some bugs and regressions from version 2.6.1. It is not based on latest development code and does not use or require any new Vulkan features.

Bug fixes and Improvements

• Added DXVK_FILTER_DEVICE_UUID environment variable to filter devices by their reported driver UUID. (PR #4956) This may be useful on setups with multiple GPUs of the s...

Bug fixes and Improvements

• Removed sparse buffer usage that was introduced in DXVK 2.6. This caused all sorts of driver issues that would cause hangs and instability on AMD Vega GPUs and others. (PR #4763) Note: This may increase peak memory usage in some games again.
• Worked around an RTSS bug that would cause the overlay to render incorrectly if the Vulkan swapchain uses an sRGB f...

D3D10 / D3D11

Nvidia Reflex support

When running Proton Experimental and an Nvidia driver with VK_NV_low_latency2 support, Reflex can now be enabled in D3D11 games that support this feature. This includes God of War, Overwatch 2, Quake Champions and some others. Approximate input latency can be displayed in these games by setting DXVK_HUD=latency.

Note: Reflex doe...
