Frame rate of the game in a static scene is around 40-50(video setting/resolution almost don't affect it) but could be droped to 20(or even lower in rare cases). CPU/GPU utilisation is not "criminal" in these cases

I understand that issue could be related to MoltenVK project but as there are some errors related to D3D11Device I am posting it here.

warn:  D3D11Device: Vertex input 'COLOR1' not defined by input layout

We don't support Mac OS. Dark Souls 3 works perfectly on real Vulkan drivers. I played it a month ago. This is most likely a MoltenVK bug or limitation.

Nothing extracted yet.
