Vulkan Proton crash on Linux

Looking at previous (successful) runs of the client with vulkan i can see:

And that VK_KHR_win32_surface is not listed in my vulkaninfo, so that is not it.

edit: It would be nice if the client logged which extension it is failing on.

Same here.
game launches after switching to DirectX12 too ;
will do for now...

Fails at same point in client.txt for me, albeit Radeon RX 7900 XTX. It will start if you edit your production_Config.ini and change renderer_type=Vulkan to renderer_type=DirectX12 (performance will be far worse though).

(edit: that ini is in your home directory in a location like:)
.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/compatdata/238960/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Documents/My Games/Path of Exile/production_Config.ini

find $HOME/.steam -iname production_config.ini

It worked! Thank you so much!!!!!!

also affected by this bug, tested different wine versions

Vulkan instance version: 1.3.239
OS: Debian stable

Same issue here, only D11 works... and I'm being nice when I say it "works".

Same issue. Played great on "pre-patch" 3.25. Vulkan doesn't work, dx12 hard crashes my system, dx11 works but it is an stuttering mess, less if I disable the new sharpening option. On Mint, latest drivers, Radeon 6700 XT.

Anyone find a solution yet? DX11 is unplayable for me at end game, way too much stuttering and rubberbanding.

I'm using DX12 and it's alright. I crash occasionally but for the most part the game is playable

Played on DX12 for some time, it was fine, as long I didn't have a video (youtube/twitch) on background.

But even with anything else, I randomly crashed on my first attempt on the King in the Mist, bricking the encounter.

So, be advised, if you do anything "important", switch back to DX11, just in case.

Thx @sihsah
I had to do this in the past to get POE running but forgot after hiatus.
