Starfield does not launch on most NVIDIA GPUs on Linux, and not at all on Pascal GPUs

Graphics / Linux Linux

Perhaps I found how to solve the issue temporarily for my Pascal GPU:

1 - Downgrade the driver using github/nvidia-all to select version 530

2 - Add launch option “VKD3D_SHADER_MODEL=6_6 %command%” to the game

The game seems to be running (so far)

Will share the findings on ProtonDB and reddit.
