Payday 2 uses d3d9 so we need the d3d9 log.
@MilesFox92 Friendly ping
Oh, I've been leaving an answer a week ago, guess my internet was acting weird and it did not publish, sorry
I've found out that game runs fine with just the d3d9.dll file, without the dxgi.dll file (despite DXGI also working in the past). Is the d3d9 log needed still? If so - how to generate it?
Should be fine if it works just with d3d9.dll.
Since it also stopped working with old dxvk dxgi.dll's it indicates that it isn't a dxvk issue. Games can sometimes be a bit finicky with dlls next to the exe of a game on Windows depending on what the game, driver or maybe even DirectX runtime does.
DXVK was working perfectly fine and giving very big performance boost in PayDay 2 before (around the beginning of the 2024), but then after some time it just stopped launching whenever DXVK is installed. I've tried installed older versions of DXVK, changing game's screen mode, tried installing it on a different machine - nothing helped
