# DXVK
2018-08-13 18:18:19 +02:00
A Vulkan-based translation layer for Direct3D 10/11 which allows running 3D applications on Linux using Wine.
2017-11-17 11:34:38 +01:00
For the current status of the project, please refer to the [project wiki](https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/wiki).

## How to use
In order to install a DXVK package obtained from the [release](https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/releases) page into a given wine prefix, run the following commands from within the DXVK directory:
```
export WINEPREFIX=/path/to/.wine-prefix
2019-02-25 16:41:49 +01:00
./setup_dxvk.sh install
2018-08-17 11:48:49 +02:00
```
This will **copy** the DLLs into the `system32` and `syswow64` directories of your wine prefix and set up the required DLL overrides. Pure 32-bit prefixes are also supported.
2019-02-25 16:41:49 +01:00
The setup script optionally takes the following arguments:
- `--symlink`: Create symbolic links to the DLL files instead of copying them. This is especially useful for development.
- `--without-dxgi`: Do not install DXVK's DXGI implementation and use the one provided by wine instead. This is necessary for both vkd3d and DXVK to work within the same wine prefix.
2018-08-17 11:48:49 +02:00
2019-02-25 16:41:49 +01:00
Verify that your application uses DXVK instead of wined3d by checking for the presence of the log file `d3d11.log` in the application's directory, or by enabling the HUD (see notes below).
In order to remove DXVK from a prefix, run the following command:
```
export WINEPREFIX=/path/to/.wine-prefix
2019-02-26 00:33:57 +01:00
./setup_dxvk.sh uninstall
2019-02-25 16:41:49 +01:00
```

## Build instructions
### Requirements:
- [wine 3.10](https://www.winehq.org/) or newer
- [Meson](http://mesonbuild.com/) build system (at least version 0.43)
2018-11-15 19:31:25 +01:00
- [MinGW64](http://mingw-w64.org/) 6.0 compiler and headers
2018-08-17 11:48:49 +02:00
- [glslang](https://github.com/KhronosGroup/glslang) compile
2017-11-17 11:34:38 +01:00
### Building DLLs
#### The simple way
Inside the DXVK directory, run:
```
./package-release.sh master /your/target/directory --no-package
```
2018-08-17 11:48:49 +02:00
This will create a folder `dxvk-master` in `/your/target/directory`, which contains both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of DXVK, which can be set up in the same way as the release versions as noted above.
2019-02-25 16:41:49 +01:00
In order to preserve the build directories for development, pass `--dev-build` to the script. This option implies `--no-package`. After making changes to the source code, you can then do the following to rebuild DXVK:
```
# change to build.32 for 32-bit
cd /your/target/directory/build.64
ninja install
```
A winelib build can be created by adding the `--winelib` argument.
#### Compiling manually
2017-11-17 11:34:38 +01:00
```
2017-12-12 12:54:49 +01:00
# 64-bit build. For 32-bit builds, replace
2018-04-06 09:42:49 +02:00
# build-win64.txt with build-win32.txt
2018-10-15 11:43:51 +02:00
meson --cross-file build-win64.txt --buildtype release --prefix /your/dxvk/directory build.w64
2017-11-17 11:34:38 +01:00
cd build.w64
ninja install
```
2019-02-25 16:41:49 +01:00
The D3D10, D3D11 and DXGI DLLs will be located in `/your/dxvk/directory/bin`. Setup has to be done manually in this case.

### Notes on Vulkan drivers
2018-08-17 11:48:49 +02:00
Before reporting an issue, please check the [Wiki](https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/wiki/Driver-support) page on the current driver status and make sure you run a recent enough driver version for your hardware.

### Online multi-player games
Manipulation of Direct3D libraries in multi-player games may be considered cheating and can get your account **banned**. This may also apply to single-player games with an embedded or dedicated multiplayer portion. **Use at your own risk.**
2017-12-07 15:20:12 +01:00
### HUD
The `DXVK_HUD` environment variable controls a HUD which can display the framerate and some stat counters. It accepts a comma-separated list of the following options:
- `devinfo`: Displays the name of the GPU and the driver version.
- `fps`: Shows the current frame rate.
- `frametimes`: Shows a frame time graph.
- `submissions`: Shows the number of command buffers submitted per frame.
- `drawcalls`: Shows the number of draw calls and render passes per frame.
- `pipelines`: Shows the total number of graphics and compute pipelines.
- `memory`: Shows the amount of device memory allocated and used.
- `version`: Shows DXVK version.
2019-01-07 19:23:32 +01:00
Additionally, `DXVK_HUD=1` has the same effect as `DXVK_HUD=devinfo,fps`, and `DXVK_HUD=full` enables all available HUD elements.
2017-12-07 15:20:12 +01:00
### Device filter
Some applications do not provide a method to select a different GPU. In that case, DXVK can be forced to use a given device:
- `DXVK_FILTER_DEVICE_NAME="Device Name"` Selects devices with a matching Vulkan device name, which can be retrieved with tools such as `vulkaninfo`. Matches on substrings, so "VEGA" or "AMD RADV VEGA10" is supported if the full device name is "AMD RADV VEGA10 (LLVM 9.0.0)", for example. If the substring matches more than one device, the first device matched will be used.
**Note:** If the device filter is configured incorrectly, it may filter out all devices and applications will be unable to create a D3D device.
2018-09-23 14:46:29 +02:00
### State cache
DXVK caches pipeline state by default, so that shaders can be recompiled ahead of time on subsequent runs of an application, even if the driver's own shader cache got invalidated in the meantime. This cache is enabled by default, and generally reduces stuttering.
The following environment variables can be used to control the cache:
- `DXVK_STATE_CACHE=0` Disables the state cache.
- `DXVK_STATE_CACHE_PATH=/some/directory` Specifies a directory where to put the cache files. Defaults to the current working directory of the application.
### Debugging
The following environment variables can be used for **debugging** purposes.
2018-05-16 22:31:31 +02:00
- `VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS=VK_LAYER_LUNARG_standard_validation` Enables Vulkan debug layers. Highly recommended for troubleshooting rendering issues and driver crashes. Requires the Vulkan SDK to be installed on the host system.
2018-08-10 12:52:09 +02:00
- `DXVK_LOG_LEVEL=none|error|warn|info|debug` Controls message logging.
2018-09-23 14:46:29 +02:00
- `DXVK_LOG_PATH=/some/directory` Changes path where log files are stored.
2018-08-10 12:52:09 +02:00
- `DXVK_CONFIG_FILE=/xxx/dxvk.conf` Sets path to the configuration file.
2017-12-08 11:19:12 +01:00
## Troubleshooting
DXVK requires threading support from your mingw-w64 build environment. If you
are missing this, you may see "error: 'mutex' is not a member of 'std'". On
Debian and Ubuntu, this can usually be resolved by using the posix alternate, which
supports threading. For example, choose the posix alternate from these
commands (use i686 for 32-bit):
```
update-alternatives --config x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc
update-alternatives --config x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++
```
