📋 About This Mod

Glitched/bugged NPC and Zonbie Models on GTX 900 Series FixThere is a strange glitch that happens on some GTX cards like 900 series. To fix this we need DX11 to Vulkan mod

Description:

This small mod helps resolve graphical artifacts and shader-related issues in Dying Light: The Beast by switching the game to DX11 with DXVK (Vulkan) support. Many players experience crashes or visual glitches due to DX12 incompatibilities on certain systems.

What this mod does:

  • []Provides d3d11.dll, dxgi.dll, and a pre-configured dxvk.conf to force DX11 with Vulkan backend.

    []Fixes graphical artifacts caused by shader compilation issues in DX12.

    []Optimizes DXVK settings for smoother performance on systems like Intel Z97 + GTX 980.

    []Pre-configured settings include async shader compilation, pipeline optimizations, FSR/TAAU compatibility, and VRAM-friendly configurations.

Instructions:

  • []Extract all files into your game’s root folder (where ...\Dying Light The Beast Deluxe Edition\ph_ft\work\bin\x64

    is located).

    []Ensure original d3d12core.dll is present for fallback, but DX11 will be used automatically.

    []Launch the game. The mod automatically applies the DXVK settings.

    []Optional: Tweak dxvk.conf if you want to enable/disable async shaders, graphics pipeline library, or other advanced options.

Important Notes:

  • []This mod does not modify the game’s core files or save data.

    []Designed for PC users experiencing graphical glitches, shader stuttering, or DX12 crashes.

    []Works best on NVIDIA and AMD GPUs; Intel integrated graphics may have mixed results.

Tested on:

  • []CPU: Intel Z97 4790K

    []GPU: NVIDIA GTX 980

    []OS: Windows 10/11
