Day 1 for me and I'm completely lost
I'm surprised nobody covered p.2. JUST USE d912pxy. Period. The game is unplayable without it. BTW running it on Linux has the same effect as it translates DirectX calls to Vulkan calls and precompiles shaders. As much as I appreciate and respect ArenaNet will to fix performance introducing Dx11 hardly improved anything. There is still long way to go.

The game feels well optimized nowadays
I think the 5900 is holding you back. I have 5800x3d and in dragons end FPS stays over 60 most of the time. I also use dx12 API proxy: https://github.com/megai2/d912pxy

Coming from a 8700K to the 5800X3D.. You weren’t kidding, it’s completely different world for those who play MMO games and latency sensitive games.
Also idk if it's still relevant but I had a massive fps improvement in GW2 by using a proxy dll dx12 proxy
- People who’ve quit bdo, what games/mmo’s have you moved onto? Asking here since it’s possible we have similar tastes

Help with PC upgrades/improving FPS
You could try using the dx12 addon to maybe squeeze out a bit more fps then dx11 gives. Otherwise gw2 is really a lost cause when it comes to trying to get a decent frame rate.
- Since its officially out of beta: what’s your opinion on dx11 performance/bugs?
- MMOs on PC have shifted from an authentic experience to pointless second job. why?
-
FPS fixes?
If none of that is enough try out the DX12 addon.
- The Olmakhan of Elona have discovered the meta permafrost dye and have adjusted their outfits accordingly (dx11 texture bug)

To ignore or not to ignore the steam review...
It still looks good. Use d912pxy to turn it into dx 12 to get better performance then ad shade over the top and it looks lovely.

Nintendo Network shutdown – The beginning of the end
Parts of DX5 and previous, such as the "retained mode", are missing from current versions of Windows entirely. Much of the remaining implementation is buggy and introduces render artifacts.
Open source projects such as dgVoodoo offer a solution to run old games, by re-implementing old DirectX and Glide on top of current DirectX [1], similar to how Wine runs DX games on Linux on top of OpenGL or Vulkan.

What is the best solution to play mid to late '90s games on modern hardware and Windows 11?
I have not tried this myself, but there are two compatibility wrappers that implement old graphic APIs for modern systems - nGlide and dgVoodoo2.

Thanks for the help with the UI y'all, more questions for ya!

There needs to be a rewritten version
It's a wrapper for old DirectX 7/8/9 games that makes them use DirectX 11/12/Vulkan instead: https://github.com/dege-diosg/dgVoodoo2

I crash most of the time when I zone. Windows 11.
This... here's a link to the github. Click on Releases to get the latest build (it'll be the first zip file without _dbg (debug) in the title).

ffxi running slow on my pc.
Try using dgVoodoo2. https://github.com/dege-diosg/dgVoodoo2/releases

3dfx Voodoo 5 6000 recreated via reverse engineering (2021)
You can always use dgVooDoo [0] to translate Glide to DirectX. With great performance, too.

Final Fantasy XI (FFXI) and Windows 11 Home
How to install DGVoodoo2 for use with Windower: download the latest non-dbg, non-api, non-source-code: .zip https://github.com/dege-diosg/dgVoodoo2/releases Unzip it. Move dgvoodoocpl.exe and MS\(x86)\d3d8.dll (just the d3d8) into -- playonlineviewer folder for retail or the same folder that your loader exe is in for private server (you can overwrite any old one in there if you like). Right click on dgvoodoocpl.exe and run as administrator. At the top right press Add and select the same folder as you selected earlier (playonlineviewer folder for retail and/or the folder of the private server loader). On the General tab, set your Adapter(s) to use / enable to your graphics card (note that, if the game won't launch after these steps, then try going back, selecting the same folder again in the dropdown menu at the top, and change it back to All, but it should work most of the time with your graphics card selected and will make sure that graphics card gets used. -- known to be necessary with SurfaceBook laptops, and maybe with external graphics card enclosures as well (untested)) On the DirectX tab, set VRAM to 512 MB (higher if you're using HD textures) and unckeck dgVoodoo Watermark at the bottom.
