on the main page the cursor barely moves, rendering almost 1 fps
trying to start the game and for the first 30 seconds the screen is black however the audio is playing just fine
after that it takes a few hours to render a frame, never really got that far
same with amdgpu-pro drive

also tried it with intel uhd 620 integrated with wine 3d it rendered 10 fps not really playable and with dxvk fps was better however had colored spots

Looking at your log you seem to be using lavapipe which is a software Vulkan driver. So the amd drivers are not getting picked up

Lavapipe usually only gets chosen if no other drivers are found or if it is forced. Else it will be skipped.

Thanks, I didn't notice that
looks like it needed an old version of amdvlk(2021q2.5) which works with dxvk 1.10.3 and the driver works now
but I'm somehow getting 15-20fps, any ways I could improve this?

Why are you using amdvlk instead of radv in the first place? Radv usually works much better with DXVK. Not sure how much performance you can even expect from a gpu such as yours, but it might be a bit better.

Thought your GPU would be working with newer amd drivers. 2021Q3 was when they dropped support for card gens such as Tonga (300 series) and the like.
radv, if you are fine with trying it, should make you able to use newer dxvk versions.

The game is known to work fine on drivers we actually support.
