Re: How do I switch from Mantle to DX11?
go to documents>battlefield>settings find PROFSAVE_profile open with notepad and change the mantle settings to 0. if that doesnt work you can delete the file and it should start it up by default.
IMPORTANT
deleting PROFSAVE_profile will erase all settings including your button mapping and may possibly erase your singleplayer progression. (atleast it will on consoles so i will suspect it does the same on pc. better safe to warn you so you may back up the file or move it to a different directory if you need to delete)
