[quote="andysonofbob"]OK I have installed afterburner but still can't tell if it is DX9 or greater. [Dunno how to do it - have looked for different OSD options]
I have tried to remove the d3d9.dll and it wont let me.
I also tried the useendscene both true and false.
Helix mod hasn't worked on some games for me e.g.: Sins
@Gapper 4
Could you confirm that you are able to play in DX9 mode and saying how please?
Thanks![/quote]
This is how it's done (I asked on the TWC forums :)
Go "C:\Users\XXXX\AppData\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\Rome2\scripts" and turn "gfx_enable_directx11" on false.

Right
Really odd. The debug which I have been using which appears to work flickers on and off. It is making it impossible to use.
It is kinda working as I can dump [random] shaders...

I am so shocked I am going to double post!
The game fixed itself.
Or
An older debug fixed it... magically. Look at the screenies!

The fire, smoke, floating pointers etc. are 3D. They used to be 2D!

Its probably from DX9 as oppossed to dx11. DX9/10/11 have different end results very often.
Debugger/release has an option to fix something with effects "clipping" but I doubt it was that.
Delete d3d9.dll to confirm it does nothing.
I think you guys jumped the gun on giving up on DX11 version. Its got no profile.
Need to read my guide down below

Hmmmm.... interesting i just dragged only "d3d11.dll" from 3dmigoto beta_v2 and smoke and effects are also fixed... !!!
http://3dmigoto.com/
EDIT: When you use that dll the games change to dx9 mode (can't enable shader model 5) too bad :_(
Ok Andy I am duly impressed with your screen captures....so.... sounds great how do we recreate your miracle...Is someone going to put the right pieces together into a Helix zip? Not sure right now whether I ought to be using 3dmigto or helix debug or what???
How do these fixes work on the strategy map? didn't see that in the screen captures I don't think. Borders and smoke are only real issues there.
edit: OK I see using the 3dmigto bioshock d3d11.dll works easily enough to force it to dx9. It looks great even in strategy mode (although rivers and some items remain 2d, at does fix many issues). I won't complain if someone gets it to work in dx11 but as far as I am concerned it is very playable right now with the dx9.

So...what should I download and where should I install it ? Is it the 3dmigato bioshock infinite d3d11.dll, and do I simply put it in the TWR2 folder ? Or something else ?

No it does nothing, total misunderstanding. He is running DX9 as is andy.
If I find out no one tried profiles with DX11 version... I am going to take off my shoe and start beating people with it.
DX11 = Profile A [default] Game works Bad
DX9 = Profile A[default] Game works great.
Its might just be luck it turned out that way. There is a good chance profiles B/C work great for DX11. I know of numerous similiar circumstances.

Well, I'm volunteering for a beating 'cause I don't understand how these profiles work :( I've been spoiled by the Helix Mod site that just asks you to unpack some .dlls in the .exe folder. I've tried the links in you signature and can't seem to find any profiles to download. It's probably just me and beg for your patience, but I would be very, very grateful if you could just point me in the right direction. I'll try the DX11 profile if you just tell me what to do.

Hi
I went through it. I couldn't get rid of that funny 2D ground texture so gave up. I have made some improvements to the strategy map though and 'might' have made some improvement to the campaign. Far FAR from perfect.
You need to use Gapper's method above to set it to DX9 mode. I would set the file to read only too.

I didn't go through the profiles because quite frankly I am well up for a shoe spanking eqzitara! ;)

Doesnt really motivate me to look at the dx9 version if no ones willing to test dx11 version. Oh well, I guess people don't really like this game enough to check. More free time for me = )

Well I was about to try the profile options on dx11 but my liguid cooling pump went bad (probably all the stress from testing Rome Total war 2 lol)
Anyway definitely interested in getting best experience possible since I'll probably end up putting a couple hundred hours into this if past Total Wars are any indicator.
I'll check it out as soon as I get back up and running, unless some others get there first.
