Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

When trying to run Assassin's Creed using Proton, the game will run as usual with PROTON_NO_D3D11=1 %command% as part of the "Set Launch Options".

However when adding the PROTON_USE_D9VK=1 in the Launch options, or using it as part of the user_settings.py, the game will seemingly be launching, but nothing will start and the "Launching" button on Steam will revert back to "Play".

AssassinsCreed_Dx9_d3d9.log produced the following entries

info: Game: AssassinsCreed_Dx9.exe
info: DXVK: d9vk-v0.90-2288-g1c550035d-froglet
warn: OpenVR: Failed to initialize OpenVR
info: Enabled instance extensions:
info: VK_KHR_get_physical_device_properties2
info: VK_KHR_surface
info: VK_KHR_win32_surface

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Install Pop!_OS and Steam
  2. Install Assassin's Creed
  3. Right click game entry -> Properties... -> Set Launch Options...
  4. Enter PROTON_NO_D3D11=1 PROTON_NO_D3D11=1 DXVK_HUD=compiler gamemoderun %command% and click "Ok". Game will not run.
  5. Remove entry PROTON_NO_D3D11=1 from above line and game will run as normal, abeit with horrible framerates in big crowds.

There's really no problem listed there. These few log entries won't be of any help.

My guess is that D9VK will get better once its been worked on more. Its still early times. But might be more applicable to have the issue at https://github.com/Joshua-Ashton/d9vk/issues instead.

Hello @smeep0, we're tracking issues with games run with Proton in the Proton issue tracker, also we're using one issue report per unofficially supported game title, so I've gone ahead and transferred this issue report to https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/183#issuecomment-555508876.
