Hi there.
err: Presenter: Failed to create Vulkan swapchain: -13
This from the log is hinting that it is a known Windows AMD driver issue at play. Started happening with drivers newer than 23.8.2, but the specific cause is not known.
Given it's the Steam Deck I'm using, sadly can't test older driver versions easily.
It's AMD so it doesn't surprise me that it's them breaking something again though.
Could you attach a log from dxvk 2.5.3? I didn't catch on you said it only happens with 2.6+
Here ya go
Still have the same errors at least
Nothing extracted yet.
On versions of DXVK >=2.6, Assassin's Creed 2 will present a white box with nothing rendering. Seems that it fails to enter the right mode since it's a fullscreen only game. The game is still playing with audio and controls responding but no visuals.
Issue does not show with apitrace but included the trace anyway.
