Doom (2016) (Steam) vulkan and video-hybrid-amd-nvidia-prime

Support Gaming
1

Hi,

Hoping someone has/knows the magic sauce needed. Basically ever other game works just fine but on my system I cannot get Doom 2016 to run on my nvidia 4060ti in vulkan mode. It always defaults to RADV. If I force it to openGL, it runs fine, but I have to set change the setting every startup. I dug around a bit elsewhere and could not find a soution for this, other than to just run pure nvidia instead of hybrid mode like this. Tho I’d really like to let the AMD APU just manage the desktop. Its helped a bit on performance with other things like Starfield where its a bit more VRAM intensive and the 4060 only has 8G of vram to have the extra ram available to games. What am I missing here?

So …
Are you using prime-run ?

And what is this from? showing everything available? (thats not helpful on its own)

3

I have tried with both prime-run and without it to no avail.

This is my present steam command line:

__NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __VK_LAYER_NV_optimus=NVIDIA_only %command% +com_skipIntroVideo 1 +set m_smooth 0 +com_skipKeyPressOnLoadScreens 1

When I had prime-run it preceeded the %command%

4

This is the same as prime-run, minus the GLX env var;

To clear up the mhwd bit please return
mhwd -li

5

That is from mwhd --list.

6

and I want list installed…

Doh,

Sorry,

here is mwhd -li

I just went back to running pure nvidia since this is probably more of a Doom issue than manjaro. Naturally it just works fine on nvidia drivers only and vulkan.
