is not present on Windows

Can you try it on Windows with DXVK?

Also, can you reproduce it with another Vulkan driver, such as AMDVLK or lavapipe, just to be sure it's not a RADV/ACO bug?

EDIT: See this if you're still struggling to capture trace.

Thanks for the issue. Can confirm.
Tested with both amdvlk and radv and a regression test back to dxvk 0.7, but was the same. Haven't found any configs to affect it either.
Also can't get apitrace working and the game crashes with validation layers.

So the first capture that I managed to get was with dxvk, so the issue might be baked in.
Its made via gfxreconstruct, so not sure how useful it is anyway.

To replay one will need a gfxreconstruct build with d3d11 support from the CI. Its only a 64bit build, but replayer worked with my 32bit capture.

Replaying the gfxreconstruct capture with Nvidias D3D11 driver reproduces the issue unless I rename gfxrecon-replay.exe to rfg.exe (the name of the game's exe).

So seems like Windows drivers ship a workaround for the game and the game itself is broken.
