Please describe your issue as accurately as possible. If you run into a problem with a binary release, make sure to test with latest master as well.

Important: When reporting an issue with a specific game or application, such as crashes or rendering issues, please include log files and, if possible, a D3D11/D3D9 Apitrace (see https://github.com/apitrace/apitrace) so that the issue can be reproduced.
In order to create a trace for D3D11/D3D10: Run wine apitrace.exe trace -a dxgi YOURGAME.exe.
In order to create a trace for D3D9: Follow https://github.com/Joshua-Ashton/d9vk/wiki/Making-a-Trace.
Preferably record the trace on Windows, or wined3d if possible.

Reports with no log files will be ignored.

Software information

Currently tried Satisfactory and Outer Worlds using Proton 5.21-GE and get the infamous dx11 feature 10 required error. However vulkaninfo and Dota2 seem to run without issues under the vulkan API. I have attached my vulkaninfo output below
vulkaninfo.txt
I can also run https://github.com/srmojuze/Refresh2025 without issues.

I have tried launching through both on-demand with __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia as well as just forcing the nvidia gpu to be on and bypass the intel without success.

System information

GPU: Nvidia 980M/Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600 (HSW GT2) (OPTIMUS)
Driver: Nvidia-455
Wine version: Proton-5.21-GE
DXVK version: Proton-5.21-GE

Setup issue on you end, DXVK itself works perfectly fine on Optimus laptops. No log files -> no idea what's wrong though.

Its setup with proton, How would I get logs from proton ?

EDIT:
steam-526870.log

Here is the proton log. all I see from it is this

info:    VK_KHR_get_surface_capabilities2
info:    VK_KHR_surface
info:    VK_KHR_win32_surface
INTEL-MESA: warning: Haswell Vulkan support is incomplete
info:  D3D11CoreCreateDevice: Probing D3D_FEATURE_LEVEL_11_0
info:  D3D11CoreCreateDevice: Probing D3D_FEATURE_LEVEL_10_0
err:   D3D11CoreCreateDevice: Requested feature level not supported```

If I run the steam command with DXVK_LOG_LEVEL=debug all I get is the following
FactoryGame-Win64-Shipping_d3d11.log

I also have an empty d3d9.log file and an empty dxvk_config file

Either your Optimus setup is broken somehow (thank god this got so much easier to run with Turing) or the game just insists on picking the Intel GPU for no particular reason. Try DXVK_FILTER_DEVICE_NAMES=GeForce, if that doesn't work, fix your Optimus stuff.

Either way, this is not a bug.

Using the filter device names works without issue however oddly enough it also works perfectly if I run certain games just through wine. Would I need to report this to proton then ?

Knowing what to look for it appears to be known https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/3215 Will close this and thank you.
