Problems playing certain games on steam

Steam runs fine, Terraria, YOMI hustle runs fine without any colored text, Deadlock, Titanfall, Library of Ruina, Dead by Daylight, Lobotomy Corpm Yakuza like a dragon show loading but don't run.

When running from the command line it says "vkEnumeratePhysicalDevices failed, unable to init and enumerate GPUs with Vulkan.//BInit - Unable to initialize Vulkan!" twice.

When running vulkaninfo it initially sais "Failed to detect any valid GPUs in the current config". After uninstalling AMD drivers and installing Intel drivers it currently gives

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=296747 had the same problem but seemed to have been solved by switching drivers
I'm not sure what

nouveau.config=NvBios=PRAMIN

does or how to run it and similarly I'm not sure what I should be filtering from dmesg as "vulkan" and "nvidia" return nothing and "gpu" returns power

$ sudo dmesg | grep gpu
[    4.749879] RAPL PMU: hw unit of domain pp1-gpu 2^-14 Joules

I have 2 files inside /usr/share/vulkan/icd.d, nvidia_icd.json and radeon_icd.x86_64.json .

When trying to follow https://forum.artixlinux.org/index.php/ … 291.0.html
Running nvidia-smi gives

$ nvidia-smi
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.

Re: Problems playing certain games on steam

remove vulkan-radeon / lib32-vulkan-radeon (they are for amd gpus which are absent from your system

Install vulkan-intel & lib32-vulkan-intel .
Please run vulkaninfo --summary and post the output .

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

Re: Problems playing certain games on steam

Done that (although I'd like to use the proper graphics card rather than the integrated graphics card). Gives me

Re: Problems playing certain games on steam

It now loads the vulkan shaders but still has the "unable to create symlink" which might be a seperate error.

pressure-vessel-wrap[24545]: E: Unable to create symlink "./share/steam/compatibilitytools.d" in "/run/media/jose/Crucial X6/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/SteamLinuxRuntime_sniper/var/tmp-GAUFV2/usr": Operation not permitted

Re: Problems playing certain games on steam

vulkaninfo output does look better and has the layers I expect to see but there's no sign of your nvidia card.

Many apps using vulkan can select which vulkan device to use, but this doesn't function well if not all cards/drivers are seen .

Please post the output of

$ ls -l /usr/share/vulkan/icd.d
$ MESA_VK_DEVICE_SELECT=list vulkaninfo
$ lspci -knn
