Guide to DirectX Settings in Team Fortress 2 HD

Note: first change your video settings before deciding to change directx level. I mean since it’s a drastic change it should be done when other graphical changes for performance have been eliminated. At the time or recording this it’s the year 2015 and directx 12 exists. Directx 8 was reassessed November of the year 2000. Don’t blame Valve that they can’t program in cart glow or other fancy effects having to using 15 year old code. 8 and 8.1 is almost exactly the same in terms of performance but 8.1 is less glitchy. Use 8.1 instead of 8 if you ever consider playing on the 8s. People SAY 9 and 9.5 is the same and 9.8 is slightly nicer but I really can’t tell the difference. Copy+past for the lazy. -dxlevel 80, 81, 90, 95, 98 --- Thanks for watching. Like if you enjoyed or learned something new and subscribe for more videos like this one. Au revoir.
