You don't need --with-d3d10 for d3d10 to work.
But what does --with-d3d10 do then?
And also,how can I install it with --symlink correctly?
And also,if I just install it with --symlink for the first time,where does it point to?
So I created a prefix and installed dxvk with --symlink,but it doesn't seem like it created symlinks of the the dxvk dll,so what do I do wrong?
--with-d3d10 just copies d3d10.dll as well, which is actually not needed for D3D10 to work since the important bit is d3d10core.dll.
--symlink makes it create symlinks inside the wine prefix to the DLLs inside the directory you're installing DXVK from.
--with-d3d10 just copies d3d10.dll as well, which is actually not needed for D3D10 to work since the important bit is d3d10core.dll.
So what is the advantage of using it then?
--symlink makes it create symlinks inside the wine prefix to the DLLs inside the directory you're installing DXVK from.
So if I got it right then when I install it with the --symlink option and then copy that prefix with the symlink and update one of the prefixes dxvk,then it is updated for all of them?
But then,hw can I update it correctly,do I just have to install the normal dxvk to any prefix or do I need to install it with --symlink? (cause then I couldn't update all prefix dxvk version with winetricks).
So if I got it right then when I install it with the --symlink option and then copy that prefix with the symlink and update one of the prefixes dxvk,then it is updated for all of them?
No, because the symlinks don't point to any prefix but rather the files inside your DXVK directory. You'd have to replace the files in there in order to get all your prefixes updated and also use the symlink options for all your prefixes.
If you want all your prefixes point to another prefix, you need to set that up manually, but it sounds like something that will easily break and is very definitely not the intended way to set up DXVK.
So what is the advantage of using it then?
There is none these days, which is why it is disabled by default.......
You'd have to replace the files in there in order to get all your prefixes updated and also use the symlink options for all your prefixes.
Which files do I have to replace and how?
Do I just have to download the latest dxvk,then delete everything in the old dxvk folder and place the new ones in and then all the symlink prefixes are updated or how should I do that?
And also,can I make a bash script that updates dxvk?
Do I just have to download the latest dxvk,then delete everything in the old dxvk folder and place the new ones in and then all the symlink prefixes are updated or how should I do that?
Yes. Let's say you unpacked your dxvk to $HOME/dxvk (which would be where setup-dxvk.sh as well as the x32 and x64 directories are) and use the symlink option, simply delete it and unpack a newer version to $HOME/dxvk in order to update. That's the whole point of that option.
I want to install it with the --symlink cause I can update it for every prefix and --with-d3d10 cause I want d3d10 compatibility.
So how exactly can I do that?
I assume that I have to install it to let's call it prefix x via
normally,and then install the it to let's say prefix y via
and then when I want to update it I have to update the dxvk from prefix x to update prefix y,but I don't know if that is how it works.
