“GMDX is executed with the strict parameter of staying true to the original design principles that define Deus Ex, and seeks to improve all aspects of design excluding the plot and soundtrack. GMDX in steam version was not working so I 'solve' the problem by copy the Steam.dll and paste in the System folder in Deus Ex but after doing that other problem appear. GMDX works just fine but the textures from HDTP doesn't seem to be working can you look into that problem too please. With the release of GMDX 9.0, I was excited to dive in and replay one of my favorite games of all time. But it looks like GMDX has to be launched through its shortcut, which also passes some config files in as launch parameters. Is there a way to make GMDX run when I click on Deus Ex in Steam?
Instructions
- Install Deus Ex on your PC, if it isn’t installed already. Once installed launch the game up to the title screen then exit.
- Click the “Get It Now” button in the sidebar on the rightbelow to download GMDXv9.0 from Moddb. (unless you’ve already downloaded it)
- Run the GMDXv9.0_Setup.exe installer and follow the necessary steps provided within.
- Once installed, always launch GMDX from one of the three PLAY_GMDX shortcuts. Once you launch, a menu will pop-up. Do not fiddle with the “Data Directories” menu. The configure menu can be tweaked to your liking though.

Windows 10’s Windows Defender has been known to sometimes block the installer.exe from launching. Should this happen right click the .exe, go into properties and unblock it. Anti-viruses in general can be heavy handed with false-positive reports.
It is highly recommended that Deus Ex vets in particular check out the Game Mechanics page before beginning.
Inventory shortcuts, mantling, scope zoom in/out, leaning additions, there’s many new game mechanics that aren’t fed to you on a plate in-game.

Deus Ex Gmdx Stutter
Streamers/lets players: use the DirectX10 render, otherwise recordings/streams on the viewers end comes out ~20% darker than what’s on your screen. Alternatively just crank up the brightness, but this is a last resort if you can’t figure out how to get the DX10 renderer running.
