Game doesn't work anymore missing Vulkan Support

Post#1 » Thu Aug 20, 2026 11:23 am

This morning the game ran fine. Then I did the Launcher Update. Now i get the following error message after starting to launch the game:

"DXVK self-test failed (Exception caught). The game will now crash.
This is likely caused by missing Vulkan 1.3 support. The DXVK log file "VanillaFixes_d3d9.log" may have more information.
If you have an older GPU (R9200/300, GTX700), remove "d3d9.dll" to use VanillaFixes without DXVK. otherwise, try updating your drivers to the latest version."

The information from the log file are:
"info: Game: VanillaFixes.exe
info: DXVK: v2.7.1-1-gplasync
info: Build: x86 gcc 15.2.0
info: Found config file: dxvk.conf
info: Effective configuration:

info: Vulkan: Found vkGetInstanceProcAddr in vulkan-1.dll @ 0x72401660

info: Skipping: Device does not support required feature 'maintenance5' (extension: VK_KHR_maintenance5)
warn: DXVK: No adapters found. Please check your device filter settings
warn: and Vulkan drivers. A Vulkan 1.3 capable setup is required."

I have a shit AMD Radeon Graphics onboard chip. But the game RAN FINE.
Just after this shit update it doesnt work. Deleting the .dll didnt work, still shows the same error. I tried deleting "vanilla fixes", then nothing works anymore. I tried opening directly through wow.exe, doesnt work. Restarting, reinstalling didnt work.

Help, pleasseee!

Welp. After trying for half an hour, i just restarted the launcher and clicked through everything. If I go to Mods and deactivate "dxvk" then the game runs again. I feel like the graphics changed now, not sure though if its worse or better. Maybe someone else has this problem so i will just leave this anyway. Maybe also someone has a better fix for me. I'm just happy it runs again.
