## What it is
A DirectX 9 to DirectX 12 API translation proxy library designed specifically for Guild Wars 2, allowing the game to use DX12 without code changes. It reduces CPU-side API overhead and improves frame rates in CPU-bound scenarios.

## Use cases
- improve guild wars 2 performance
- reduce directx 9 api overhead
- run gw2 on directx 12
- boost fps in cpu-bound game scenes
- translate dx9 calls to dx12 without modifying game code

## When to choose
- you play Guild Wars 2 and want better frame rates, especially in CPU-heavy scenes
- you want to try DX12 rendering in a DX9 game without code changes

## When to avoid
- you need support for other games (not planned)
- you need a fully stable, bug-free experience (minor crashes and visual bugs expected)
- you need active development (project is slated for archival once GW2's DX11 beta ends)
