Okay?

Use an older DXVK build then or give us something to work with. No idea if "latest" means 3.0 or current master. Nevermind that old WoW builds are a pain in the arse to set up and it would really be nice if people at least attempted to do the whole apitrace thing so that we don't have to waste an entire fucking work day on setting this buillshit up.

Why is it so hard to just fill out the godforsaken issue template?

Everything worked on version 2.7.1 and subsequent master versions until some recent commit before the new release. Before that, there were a lot of commits on WoW 3.3.5.a. I thought someone had discovered this and would run an API trace, as I don't have time for that.
I simply reported the issue. If you don't need it, you can ignore it and will use the previous version of dxvk.

Recording an apitrace following the instructions should take you no more than 10 minutes. Figuring out how to setup old WoW on some private server and then learning how to even trigger this issue in the game could take someone else who's not familiar with the game hours.

...then it's probably already fixed on master? (so much for "latest")

latest master have same issue.

I dropped the files for recording the trace into the game folder and switched the markers above the player.
