Visual bugs and crashing in Far Cry 6
Compiling vkd3d-proton-master is the only way to play Far Cry 6 on Linux at the moment but there are some bugs and the game is not fully playable.
The first issue is that the text in the menus does not show if you compile vkd3d-proton-master as it is, you have to add key.u.texture.allowed_swizzle = true; here before compiling to work around it.
The second issue flickering which you can see in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0psf8wDt048&t=3s
The third, and biggest problem I've encountered is the game crashing in menus. If you open your map, the game has a very high chance of crashing the AMDGPU driver. The same goes for interacting with quest givers, crafting benches, etc.
PC Specs: OS: Arch Linux Kernel: 5.14.9-zen2-1-zen Mesa 21.3.0-devel (git-305b170229) CPU: Ryzen 7 5800x GPU: RX 6700 XT
The first issue is that the text in the menus does not show if you compile vkd3d-proton-master as it is, you have to add
key.u.texture.allowed_swizzle = true;here before compiling to fix it.
That is not a fix, it's a hack that violates the Vulkan specification. The problem is that the game creates an A8 UAV. Without insane workarounds this pretty much needs a Vulkan extension to add VK_FORMAT_A8_UNORM or an extension to allow swizzles on storage images.

I am not a programmer so I do tend to use the word "fix" quite liberally, sorry about that. I corrected my original post.
For me editing resource.c didn't seem to do anything. Can anyone confirm that it actually works?
Update: I'm using the closed nVidia drivers on a GTX 970.
The hack might only work on radv, at least that's what the person who originally came up with it used. It's invalid behavior so this very much depends on your hardware and driver.

As @DadSchoorse said, this might not work on Nvidia. I can confirm it works with both RADV and AMDVLK. Anyway, I believe it is better to not bother with this hack since even if it does work around the first issue, the game crashes my graphics driver and there is some flickering, so we should probably wait for the vkd3d devs to sort things out instead of trying to hack our way around these issues.
Yeah, the game loads up great with Nvidia, but there's no text in the menus. Shame. If any logs or anything are needed I'm happy to provide them but it seems you all already know the issue
I was able to blindly find my way and run the benchmark. I couldn't see any text, so I don't know what the results were. But, I get the sense that they were really close to windows. The flickering is a game buster for me. It happen with nvidia's proprietary drivers, as well. Are you guys sure that the issue with the text isn't a directwrite issue?
I managed to compile vkd3d-proton and the game launches, but no text (even after attempting the hack).

I know that a proper fix for the text issue will take a while but what about the other two issues I mentioned? If they get fixed then the game will at least be fully playable for those with AMD GPUs.
Same issue as above, No text, seemed to crash when trying to run the bechmark.

Tried again with lqx kernel current nvidia vulkan dev and proton experimental no crashes. Added screen shots of what the flashes and pixel stuff looks like.

Since apitrace doesn't seem to work with this game and crashes instantly upon trying to replay the trace, I've made a gfxreconstruct capture instead. Not sure how helpful this is but replaying the capture hangs the GPU just like the actual game would.

Might be worth testing if this helps with the text issues, although I don't have high hopes since A8 UAVs are required by 12_0. https://github.com/DadSchoorse/vkd3d/tree/dont-report-a8-uav

The game doesn't even launch for me anymore. It gets stuck on the splash screen with "warm up PSO cache" and nothing happens. EDIT: That was a Wine issue which I sorted out but the text issue is not fixed.
Yeah I couldn't get the game to launch with @DadSchoorse's code at first (same behavior as @DoomPenguin9, but I did get it launched eventually). Same text issues.
I have NVIDIA RTX 2070 and Arch linux. When I was testing week ago, I've downloaded game from EPIC and then I had problems with text too. Recently I've redownloaded game from Ubisoft Connect on russian language and I see 5/6 letters. So I still don't have some letters, but a lot of them are visible. But still have some glitches like blinking screen and artifacts.
The game straight up crashes if you try to start a new game, load a game, or start the benchmark. You also can't access the the video menu(you can click on it but nothing happens). I think this started after the most recent patch.

Which version? On the top left in the ingame menu it says 1.1.1 for me and it's still working... well, besides the texture issues and bad performance.

Version 1.1.1
Same crashing behavior for me as well,
Running on RTX 3080 Distro: Arch-linux Tried on bot wine wine-ge 6.18 and 6.20 Tried vkd3d-proton with and without the "hack".
So far, the text output is still not working, as for the game, it flickers.
the inventory,map bug is very similar to the Cyberpunk2077 inventory bug. at main menu turn down shadows to low, and volumetric fog as well... enjoy. (tested enough to feel confident, yet unsure what about these two settings is angering vkd3d)
future updates did relieve cp2077 of this issue yet it was dev updates not vulkan/mesa

I can't even get FC6 to launch properly anymore. It either doesn't launch at all(with latest tkg) or I get the splash screen an it just hangs until I use xkill to kill it. The only wine version I can get the game to launch with is 6.17-tkg but if I try to load a game or start a new game, it just crashes and I can't even click on half the options in the menu, like the video setting for example. What wine version are you using to get it to run?
Yeah I couldn't get the game to launch with @DadSchoorse's code at first (same behavior as @DoomPenguin9, but I did get it launched eventually). Same text issues.
How did you get it to run? I can only run the game with wine tkg 6.17 but it's buggy with it and crashes when I try to load a game or start a new one. Oh, and I also can't click on half the settings in the menu for some reason. With wine versions other than 6.17-tkg the game just hangs on the splash screen.

Last time I tried I was using the lutris-ge-6.20 build of wine and built vkd3d-proton with key.u.texture.allowed_swizzle = true. Had some flickering in the benchmark, but at least the first few minutes of the game seemed to work just fine. Settings all worked too, as far as I could tell.
@alex9k1 are you on AMD or Nvidia? I'm just trying to see if the "there's no text visible on Nvidia" situation has changed. Last I checked it was the same (though I have gotten it to launch with later than 6.17 I believe).

It has not changed.
I figured not. Am I correct in recalling that it will likely require a new Vulkan extension?
