First thing I would check are the temperatures of the Graphiccard and the CPU. Have you tried other games too? Are drivers of the Graphiccard up to date? If so you could try an older driver,if aviable. I believe someone with a GTX 1080 had problems too,turned out it has been the driver making trouble.

Try http://openhardwaremonitor.org/ if you don't have a temp monitor.

I had problems with my 1080 but it turned out to be my 850 PSU. It worked great for my GTX 780 ti but as soon as I installed the GTX 1080 it started randomly rebooting during games.

What mobo do you have? Some old motherboards do need a bios update to run a new nVidia card.

If it works with dx9 shaders turned off, try a fresh dx9 install.

WOFF rarely crashes in mid mission unless due to hardware cooking, crashing.
CPU overheating? WOFF uses CPU lots. If you are overclocking, turn it down a lot or off. See the troubleshooting section of the FAQ (near the end) and also various such as section 40
tell you exactly where DX9 is and how to install it. Also make sure you are up to date with the latest version available of WOFF - see downloads on our website.

DX9 is linked in the FAQ and also is in WOFF\Toolbox\DX9redist as JJJ says (if you have updated your WOFF that is).

FAQ is on our website HELP pages.
