Symptoms

Some of my steam games runs very well like GTA V, Need for speed the Heat, or Dota 2. But in age of Empire IV, i dont see the shader compilation wizard and i only got 15-20 fps in solo or in multi... It also shows me in the display preference tab that the game is working on my iGpu, and not on discrete one! i just bought the game to play with friends, pls help !

I tried some launch commands like :
__NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia %command% (game launches but unfortunately working with iGPU)
and
DXVK_FILTER_DEVICE_NAME="GeForce RTX 3050 Mobile" %command% (the game is compiling shader, then there is a wizard who displays i dont have a good directX library, i click OK or Later and the game crashes immediatly)

But here for the report i let blank the launch options
