Due to server slowness, downtime, and other issues, guests can no longer search the forum or view user accounts. At some point in the future Eclipse will be moving to a more stable and efficient platform that should result in much better stability and the lifting of these restrictions. There is no timeline for this yet, just want you to know what's happening with all the downtime and I have a plan to fix it.

Pretty self-explanatory here.

oh yea, I got WDDM 2 working too (8.1 only) , but don't expect a release for a while as it is still super unstable.

UPDATE: it seems to be a per app basis, some like DxDiag still report DX11, but after some fuckery, some apps like Realtek HD Audio reports DX12.

Dolphin seems to acknowledge that D3D12 exists, but crashes upon launch.OwnedByWuigi wrote: ↑15 Nov 2025, 18:43 UPDATE: it seems to be a per app basis, some like DxDiag still report DX11, but after some fuckery, some apps like Realtek HD Audio reports DX12.

Thanks Duke
By the way, for everyone reading this, I made this project: https://github.com/Roti-Poulet/DirectX12On7 , and its probably the best DirectX12 patch for Windows 7, supporting programs without D3D12On7, and even some new titles:
-Resident Evil Village (8)
-Unreal Engine 4 (I got SunTemple to work, but I don't really know about real UE4 games)
Games using CreateDXGIFactory2 are also supported!
