DirectX Tweaker Description

DirectX Tweaker is a convenient application that allows you to customize the way a program uses the DirectX components. You can use in order to get higher performance for some of the applications that depend on the DirectX, such as games. In order to use the program you only need to select the executable file and to change the parameters of the available tweaks. All the tweaks are plug-ins that need to be enabled in order to have an impact on the application performance. You can test different settings by adjusting the properties one or more plug-ins. Some of them, such as the Wireframe or the Null Render only require a hotkey in order to enable or disable a specified function. Others allow you to specify multiple parameters and require further information. The program provides the basic description of every plug-in in order to help you make the correct adjustments. Most of the plugins aim to change the graphics parameters such as texture filters, shader rendering or texture sampling. For instance, you can adjust the present changer counter in order to increase the frame rate or to enable the Supersample anti-aliasing mode in order to buff the image quality. You can use the program to capture the shaders used by an application or to store the information about each frame into a log file in order to analyze it later. The program can create multiple configurations for the same application in order to compare the results. To view the tweak effect you only need to activate the selected plugins and to launch the executable file from the application interface. DirectX Tweaker can be useful for the users that want to balance the image quality with the computer performance by tweaking the DirectX parameters. However, this tool has limitations and cannot be used with the latest games since it only supports DirectX 9. Reviewed by Sorin Cirneala, last updated on October 1st, 2012
