--- Comment #14 from Ken Sharp imwellcushtymelike@gmail.com --- Adding VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/dev/zero causes the issue for me. Before this I am seeing an OOM error in the console, but no dialog window. However I am using DX9 to workaround graphical issues.
Under Windows 10, on the same hardware, the process uses around 1.5 GB of RAM and 1.0 GB of VRAM (and runs okay - it can still crash but much later on).
Are you still seeing the same behaviour in Wine 9.6?
