Hi there. Have you verified it isn't this https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/wiki/Windows#dozen

Forgot to mention. I did check that, yes. I do not have any options to remove it via the App-list or store, only options to download or 'get' it. So pretty sure I don't have the pack installed.

Unless it shows up elsewhere than the app list or control panel.

While i can reproduce this on Windows i am not sure what is going on with it as i have no trouble with the game on Linux

Please describe your issue as accurately as possible. If you use Windows, please check the following page: https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/wiki/Windows

When using the DXVK 2.3 d3d9.dll for Sins of a Solar Empire Rebellion, the game doesn't seem to load. It shows up in the process list but the window never opens and must be killed through task manager.

I also tested on 2,2, 2.1, 2.0 and 1.10.3, all had the same problem but the latter three logs actually gave an error at the end stating D3D9SwapChainEx: Failed to recreate swap chain: VK_ERROR_NATIVE_WINDOW_IN_USE_KHR

Logs from 2.0 to 2.3 are attached.

Is your vulkan present method set to DXGI swapchain in nvcp?

Is your vulkan present method set to DXGI swapchain in nvcp?

It was set to Auto but I have also tried with it manually set to Prefer Native and Prefer Layered on DXGI Swapchain with the same results.

A workaround for this issue might be to set d3d9.deferSurfaceCreation = True in a dxvk.conf
