New Elden Ring Mod attempts to fix stuttering by implementing VKD3D fixes natively in DX12
https://www.dsogaming.com/mods/new-elden-ring-mod-attempts-to-fix-stuttering-by-implementing-vkd3d-fixes-natively-in-dx12/
Now here is something interesting for all those that experience stutters in Elden Ring. Modder ‘soupstream’ released a mod/unofficial patch that aims to fix the stuttering that a lot of players have experienced.
According to soupstream, this patch implements various VKD3D fixes natively in D3D12. Theoretically, these VKD3D fixes should minimize the stutters that PC gamers have reported.
Now as with all mods/unofficial patches, we strongly recommend using it in Offline Mode. Otherwise, FromSoftware may ban you for using it.
