Assertion Failed! !status && vkCreateGraphicsPipelines in several Unreal Engine games

[agile lynx]

I've been running into this crash outright whenever I try to open Metal Gear Solid Delta or Lords of the Fallen, and while loading into the game in Borderlands GOTY Enhanced and Borderlands 3. If necessary, I can try to load up BL3 in RenderDoc for more info on that end.

I'm on an i9-14900k with an RTX 4070ti. nvidia-open driver 580. I started having this issue on openSUSE (same drivers) after a kernel update, and it's persisting on a clean install of CachyOS.

Output of vulkaninfo and nvidia-smi:

I get that, I just figured someone here might have some idea as to what's going on. I've been trying to diagnose this for days

[lucid trellis]

the only thing we can really say is "check your drivers" 🤷‍♀️

your vulkaninfo is cut of at the top btw

[wide oar]

if you're playing those games on SUSE it means you're playing them through a DirectX on Vulkan emulation layer

might be a bug in that

vkd3d or dvxk depending on directx version
