[Draft and idea discussion] DLL loader in DXVK

[allfoxwy]

This post is an idea discussion. Wish I could hear some advice from you.

I m thinking about load DLL mods (Vanilla Fixes, nampower, SuperWoW etc.) during D3D9 initialization, for example like this: https://github.com/allfoxwy/dxvk/commit/5051ef74e4edc0397a828c855359c5cdfbfdca24

Advantage:

• D3D9 initialization is called by the game itself, so there is no DLL injection. Should result in less malware report.

Disadvantage:

• DXVK require Vulkan 1.3 some elder hardware won't work.

I think we can`t control timing. We don't know the game initialize D3D9 first or its GetCPUFrequency() first. So do hooking in D3D9 is not ideal.
