hello,

i was meant to report this on github, but since it's became read-only, the button is disabled.

anyway, what i wanted to do is combine the dgvoodoo2 along with dxvk (since i've read in some articles that it's possible),
on 2 specific games:
- Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen
- and Dragon's Dogma Online (if the client is ever needed to test, it's on Dogma Rising Discord channel, since Capcom shut the server down in 2019 along with its official website. Dogma Rising currently host the game as private server).

i've tried the latest dgvoodoo2 version (2.86.1) but both games end up force closed after few secs.
then tried to step the version down one by one, and found the latest working one is 2.83.2.

i'm just hoping that i can use whatever latest version (if any hotfix/new release is ever made later on) for them.
but if i'm stuck with older version as of now, then it's fine, too.

They can't be combined and it'd make no sense anyway.

This game runs fine with the latest dgVoodoo release, so I can't see any problem here.

I can think of allowing an alternator for either, but why do you use both ?

ah, sorry. i guess it's my fault for choosing the wrong words. i'm not a native English speaker. i'll try to rephrase it.

what i meant by combine, is "not combining dgvoodoo2 and dxvk into a single d3d9.dll",
but using dgvoodoo2's d3d9.dll to upgrade the game (DX9 to DX11), then use dxvk's d3d11.dll + dxgi.dll (DX11 to Vulkan)

if i only use dgvoodoo2, or only use dxvk, then yes, the latest one (all the way to 2.86.1) works as intended.
but if i use both at the same time, the latest working one is 2.83.2. any higher version just simply force close the games after few seconds.

sorry for the confusion

Well, that's what I exactly thought of as well.
On the one hand it's completely pointless and on the other hand dgVoodoo is not some inferior satellite project for dxvk, even if many people think it is.

I don't care if dgVoodoo works with that or not, sorry.
