PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 DXVK_NVAPI_DRIVER_VERSION=56070 %command%
Needed to Visit the DXVK-NVAPI GitHub Releases page and download the latest version (dxvk-nvapi-vX.X.tar.gz). Then stopped steam.
Copied nvapi64.dll to the game's Proton prefix system32 directory (for me it was ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/1845910/pfx/drive_c/windows/system32/)
Copied nvapi.dll to the syswow64 directory (for me it was ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/1845910/pfx/drive_c/windows/syswow64/)
Restarted Steam. Then it worked.
There were some strange artifacts on like the corner of random NPC's lips and little things like that
Before I installed those DLLs, I got this error:
Wine C++ Runtime Library Assertion failed!
Program: Z:\home\USERNAME.local\share\Steam\steamapps\common\Dragon Age The Veilguard\Dragon Age The Veilguard.exe
File: ../src-wine/dlls/winevulkan/loader_thunks.c
Line: 2775
Expression: !status && "vkCreateComputePipelines"
**Press OK to exit the program, or Cancel to start the Wine debugger.`
Those DLLs were able to fix it and I added PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 to the launch options and it worked.
The DXVK_NVAPI_DRIVER_VERSION=56070 seems super important even if you didn't have the same issues I did!
Steam was defaulting to my internal graphics card so it would crash on boot. I disabled it in the bios and it worked fine.
Sometimes during cutscenes there seemed to be a bit of stuttering. Dialog 100% understandable
I beat several levels and was able to play in the open world. About 2 hours with no issues.
