While DXVK fixes various crashes issues with this game, but also i can't enable Bokeh Filter and GPU water simulation anymore (they just disappear in graphics settings)

I believe this needs Nvapi to show and so we won't be able to get it working on Windows with dxvk. Only a functional thing on Linux.
Not able to check at the moment.

It turns out that this doesn't actually work on Linux either even with nvapi. But one of the dxvk-nvapi devs looked at a log and there is a function without implementation that could very likely be the cause.
So this indeed seems like it needs Nvapi and therefor wont work on Windows.

Those features are never gonna work with DXVK on Windows.

Apparently there are no public headers for the missing NvAPI functions. So it's not gonna be implemented for Linux either.

Nothing extracted yet.
