It would be awesome if a windows tutorial was added. I know DXVK is compilable in windows and some people have even got it to run.
I would love to try it, but I don't know what to do with the dll .

Copy DLLs to the directory where the game's executables are, done.

Note that some games refuse to load DXVK, but there's nothing we can do about it.

@doitsujin I've tried putting dxvk files to folder with Arma 3. I've had an "entrypoint not found" error related to DXGID3D10GetLayeredDeviceSize function in d3d10core.dll library. What would've caused that?

Ddoitsujin maintainer 2018-06-06 github

No idea, DXVK doesn't implement or touch any of those D3D10 functions.

@doitsujin On Wine Arma 3 is working pretty good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwD4fvB4eZw
That's odd.

@grappas You can try also https://github.com/Joshua-Ashton/dxup among with dxvk.

@lieff Already tried that. Not instantly crashes but still dead end (hangs on black screen). I'm wondering: why on Wine with pure dxvk Arma 3 works like a charm and on Windows 10 do not. Max Payne III also gets this error but after error message closed... works without hiccups :)

@doitsujin Is there anything to do in regedit to make it work on Windows?

Ddoitsujin maintainer 2018-06-06 github

I don't use Windows enough to know that, sorry.

@doitsujin It seems to search for Wine version of this library and finds unfortunately an original one. I've tried copy over wine system32 files but it seems incompatibile (so I should expect).

I know this post is from 2018, but I was wondering how to install this Dxvk for old games such torchlight II
I downwloaded the last version 1.7 but there is not .dll files inside? :O

Sorry for being that noob =(

You have to open the .tar file. The dlls are in there.
