Are you absolutely certain that you even tested the same settings on both systems?
Might also be worth checking out whether the same issue (if this is one at all) occurs on Windows with DXVK or on Nvidia's latest Beta driver. As far as I'm aware, this game renders correctly on DXVK on my AMD card.
Hi,
You're right this doesn't happen on Windows with dxvk.
On windows I see other artifacts (not relevant to this bug or maybe dxvk at all) in top right corner here:

Do you mean I should try to install beta drivers on the linux or windows box?
Anyway my apologies for wasting your time if it's unrelated to dxvk.
Linux.
I'll double-check this on my machine on monday, but it looks like a driver issue (perhaps Turing-specific, another user on an RTX 2080 confirmed your issue).
Hi,
Unfortunately it seems no beta drivers are available for this, I only see 430.09 which is older than what I have now.

Nvidia has a separate beta branch for the Vulkan driver. You can find those here:
https://developer.nvidia.com/vulkan-driver
Hi, just an update issue still happens with nvidia driver 440.26 installed from graphics-drivers ppa.
Sorry about the window in the middle of screenshot, something is wrong with screen capture (I get some weird frame from main menu instead of gameplay otherwise):

I believe this was fixed in 435.27.07 - it fixed a number of issues for me in the game. Note that this version is newer than the 440.xx releases, you must use this exact version to test right now.
Should indeed be fixed as of the latest Vulkan beta driver, and should make its way into the stable branch eventually.
Nothing extracted yet.
In Assassin's Creed Odyssey you can observe strange red/yellow glow from fires.


See screenshots from Linux and Windows (linux first, windows second):
You can see the glow is not present in Windows.

Apitrace file(s)
Game crashes without dxvk, so I tried to capture apitrace with DXVK installed, but only got this file:
ACOdyssey-trace.txt
Used the following command:
wine ~/Pobrane/apitrace-8.0.20190414-win64/bin/apitrace.exe trace -a dxgi -o ACOdyssey-trace.txt ACOdyssey.exe
I'd appreciate any help in capturing the apitrace.
