References

  1. Sniper Elite 5 pulled from Epic Games Store - Venture Beat - last accessed on 2022-05-26
  2. Verified by User:Mrtnptrs on 2023-01-06
    Does skip the launcher and just starts the game, so does not start a benchmark or changes any settings as the name of the command line argument might suggest.... other than the note below as it forces one renderer.
  3. Verified by User:Mrtnptrs on 2023-01-06
    Checked with contents of %LOCALAPPDATA%\Sniper Elite 5\GraphicsOptions.ini that literally says this in a comment at the top of the file: "###### Preference of D3D12 or Vulkan - used when bypassing the launcher (e.g. via -benchmark commandline). ###### ###### 0 = Vulkan, 1 = D3D12 ###### "
