BlackScreen And Texture load errors Fixer

A simple File swap that eliminates the issue of infinite backscreen soft lock along with reduced stuttering.

On my way to work, haven't tested it yet.

Apparently, all it takes is to swap two files from FFXVI.

Looks like you can get these DLL files directly from Microsoft:

Don't have ff16? Not to worry - you can download the files direct from microsoft.

1. Go to https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Direct3D.DirectStorage/
2. Click "Download package" to download the .nupkg file.
3. Extract it. To do so, you can rename in to .zip or use 7zip or something like that.
4. Find the 2 DirectStorage DLL files in the extracted files. For most
people it will be the x64 versions, so the 2 DLL files in
native\bin\x64.
5. Go to your FF7 install directory and find the 2 DIrectStorage DLL files there, probably under End\Binaries\Win64,e .g
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FINAL FANTASY VII
REBIRTH\.
6. Replace the DIrectStorage DLLs in your game directory (step 5) with the newer DLLs from Nuget (step 4).

It would appear that SE didn't update DirectStorage to the latest version, which is causung some of these crashes.

11 hours in and I haven't had a single error or crash. Does it affect certain PC configurations?

Possibly. The cause seems to be two outdated DLL files.

Game crashes at startup with the DLL files of that website.

Mod's files work fine, though.

Weird, the files of the site work fine for me. Make sure you're selecting the correct architecture (probably x64)? The XVI drivers are one version behind the drivers on that site, but that shouldn't matter. In any case, whatever works
