Apex Legends DXVK issue

Hi there! First post so bear with me.

Apex Legends fails to start,
Reaching the EAC loading window for a split second,
and kills the process.

My laptop has an intel cpu with an nvidia 760m gpu. (legacy active)
I use optimus to switch between intergrated and dgpu,
but I keep it locked to nvidia due to hybrid not working.

Info about the laptop:

Two things, Why is it skipping my 760m?
Is the vulkan version too low for this legacy gpu?

and DXVK cant find the adapter due to the issue above?

Thanks for the help :slight_smile:

Yes.

What is output of mhwd -l command; and what is output of mhwd -li command?

If you can install more recent driver, you probably can use older version of Proton or Proton-GE, as older version of DXVK was supporting older drivers.
