I'm using this with Sims 3. I'm on windows 10. Lots of people are using it fine, but after a few minutes in game, my curser constantly flickers. Please 🙏 does anyone know what the issue could be?? I use the overlay. I put in the 32 bit file.

ryzen 5 7600x
AMD RX 6750 XT

Please attach a dxvk log from a time it happened. They should appear next to the exe or in base game folder.

What cursor do you mean? The one for the game itself?
Also what overlay. The Steam one or EA one?

Ok I'll try to find it. I use AMD overlay in game to help with some graphic issues. But when I install DXVK in the bin folder, when I play sims 3, my mouse curser constantly flickers,,it dissapears all together then reappears when I move my mouse. I have no idea why it only does this to my game

I tried playing the game a bit while also messing with the Adrenalin overlay but haven't noticed anything strange. Could you make a video?

Hi sorry! I removed DXVK. I don't think it works with sims 3. I downloaded a new version but the FPS seem to drop.reason I wanted it, is because it stops the game running out of memory. It onky has 4gb.
