Farcry 4 crashes on title screen (Windows 10)

[r3dnasa]

On windows 10 farcry 4 crashes upon trying to load the main menu. What makes this odd is when using the apitrace dlls provided from the bug report page the game loads just fine so I'm not sure whats wrong with it exactly

(launch options used: -fullscreen -skipintro)

Something spam-creates a huge number of Vulkan devices and at some point this just fails. Don't know why this would happen (any third-party / nvidia stuff active that might interact with Vulkan and DXGI?), but this seems firmly outside of our control.

aw thats unfortunate. and to answer your question: nothing as far as i know. thanks for the quick response

[r3dnasa]

not sure if this is relevant but i know farcry 4 uses nvidia gameworks so maybe that might be causing the issue?

[doitsujin]

Shouldn't be, Gameworks features either just work™ if they are built on top of plain old D3D11, or require nvapi to work in which case you just won't be able to enable them on Windows with DXVK.

oh okay, thank you
