The game does not work at DX9. (Metro: Last Light)
Initially, the settings are DX10. When you change it through a text file to DX9, then when you enter the game, a black screen. I'll change it back - everything works. What's the matter? Yesterday it worked on the ninth, today the game is not cut in on it.How do I change DirectX?
What if the texture is blurry?
What to do if the "black screen?
1. go to: / users / username / AppData / Local / 4AGames / MetroLL / 410000004100000 (the numbers may be different);
2. open the user.cfg file with notepad;
3. change the line to required value:
r_api 0
or
r_api 1
or
r_api 2
Where:
0 - Dx9
1 - Dx10
2 - Dx11
with Dx10 or Dx11, if the textures are blurry, then put the lines:
ph_advanced_physX 0
r_dx11_tess 0
r_tess_ss 0
If the screen is black, insert the numerical values, respectively. resolution of your monitor (in this case it is 1680x1050):
r_res_hor 1680
r_res_vert 1050
And save the changes.
-------------------------------- You
can also increase the viewing angle.
Change in the file user.cfg:
r_base_fov 50.625
to
r_base_fov 60
It will be more comfortable to play (I play on 32 inches, 16: 9)
I have the same problem. If you fix r_api 1 to r_api 0 and set the read-only attribute for user.cfg, then a black screen appears when loading and the game hangs. If you do not set "Read only", then the game starts, but itself changes the value of r_api 0 to r_api 1 and as a result there is no DX9. Please help solve this problem.

Did it as you have shown - the game now crashes even if you do not set "Read only".

Why bother to climb the file attributes? If the game starts to glitch, then it's easier to reinstall it, and I showed you how to start DX9 and run it from the root folder.
I do not change the file attributes any more. The game is not buggy - it starts with the parameters r_api 1 or r_api 2 (although the card does not support DX11), but I need DX9. Neither from the shortcut nor from the root folder when r_api 0 is launched.
_BANDIT_ User.cfg
files in game 2, one in the game folder, the other in the "Admin Local Settings Application Data 4A Games Metro LL 410000004100000" documents.
If you want to change the game parameters, then delete the file from the documents, edit the root file and start the game, the file will appear automatically in the documents and will be the main one.

The last method helps only at the first start, then again the same thing - a black screen. I'm tired of experimenting, I will play as it is.
PS Thanks for the help.
you can play on 2 shaders even:
Lines in user.cfg:
r_api -1
or
r_api 0
or
r_api 1
or
r_api 2
-1 -Dx8
0 - Dx9
1 - Dx10
2 - Dx11
I did this, the current shadows from the flashlight disappear and the shadows from just the same, that is, static lighting is made, the bump disappears, all surfaces become flat and the graphics become wretched like in half life 2.
