If you're trying to play Death Stranding 2 and are getting this error. This is due to something with the DX12 -> Vulkan DirectX Raytracing translation (DXR) layer.

In order to have the game launch, disable it by adding to your launch options:

VKD3D_CONFIG=nodxr

This will disable raytracing and revert to rasterization. Wayland/HDR work fine.

My complete launch settings if someone wants an easy copy/paste (why doesn't Steam have a smarter system for managing Launch Options :/):

VKD3D_CONFIG=nodxr PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 %command%
