Issue description

The Talos Principle fails to launch when configured to use its Vulkan renderer:

ERR:  Cannot set requested display mode 3840x2160: GfxAPI error: 
ERR:  Vulkan error: Cannot find a compatible Vulkan ICD!

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install The Talos Principle from steam.
  2. Launch steam from a terminal.
  3. Launch it and in GRAPHICS OPTIONS set RENDERER to VULKAN (BETA)
  4. The game restarts and pops up a messagebox saying "Fatal error: Cannot set display mode". The terminal shows further information, including the message about being unable to find an ICD.

Technical details

  • System: NixOS 17.09pre102667.2839b10 (Hummingbird)
  • Nix version: nix-env (Nix) 1.11.7
  • Nixpkgs version: 17.09pre102667.2839b10
  • services.xserver.videoDrivers = [ "nvidia" ];
  • vulkan-loader is installed system-wide

/cc @abbradar for steam. I suspect some links are missing in the sandbox.

This way we get /run/opengl-driver as a search path.

A very nice game, IMHO!

I'll put it further up in the list to try :D (I don't think my integrated nvidia will cut it though)

It's quite scalable performance-wise, might well be worth a try if you own it.

It was fine on my old notebook, even without vulkan. (GT 420M) I suppose it depends on your desired quality settings :-)

Actually I hope Vulkan will improve the situation. I'm not picky with my graphics :D

I don't remember if it's supposed to affect old GPUs in any way.
