-dx11 option isn't working on steam

[alejito480]

I tried to execute the game using -dx11 option in steam, but the game just still executing using dx9 (i see this using RivaTuner)

Anyone know how fix this or is just this option don't work anymore?

It doesn't exist, and never did, for HOI 4. You're confusing with another game. Probably Stellaris.

and not, i'm not confusing the game, i'm not an idiot like that. In stellaris i play using VULKAN. i just tried the thing i see in the WIKI, "Using -dx11 comand to execute HoI IV using the API" but no works

It would be easier if you provided a link to the part of the Wiki you're referring to, because a Google search or a search on the HOI 4 Wiki itself doesn't turn up anything for me.

Yeah, it's just an option that was added to the engine for Imperator: Rome or thereabout. It doesn't mean all Paradox games are capable of using the DX11 API. Older games don't support it. HOI 4 doesn't support it. It was only recently implemented in Stellaris (see [Dev Team] 2.8.0 (Butler) Patch Released) as an "experimental" feature. Crusader Kings 3 actually requires DX11.

I believe the forum requires a minimum number of posts before you can post links. Luckily you've now satisfied the requirement.
