Anyone got annoying bug with this game? Plays in Opengl, but switch to Vulkan and it refuses to load.

It used to work, but then it didn't. And then even had problems loading up with opengl until I reset settings. Pretty annoying as I wanted increased performance in Vulkan, and now getting a new 144hz monitor I want to try this game as I'll get 120fps+ with my ATI 480 8GB.

It's possible that OGL/Vulkan isn't playing too nicely with your obsolete and outdated OS. All that hardware and you play it on W7, shocking!!!

Tried W10. Hated it.

what CPU are you using? I know there's a bug when running Vulcan on a 2 thread CPU, I had this on my Pentium g3260 system. Fine on opengl, crash on vulkan

if that is the case, the fix that worked for me was to Right click on Doom in Steam Library, "Properties"
"Set Launch Options"

+jobs_numthreads 2

6 core Intel.
