Sid Meier's Pirates doesn't hook with official releases of Remix despite doing so with Portal with RTX files

[BobaWithTheFire]

Describe the bug

While the game did hook with Remix using the Portal with RTX files, no version or build since works. The game will launch, audio can be heard of the opening movies and of the menu, but the screen is entirely black, save for the cursor icon.

• Remix Build: Any (The logs are from Bridge build bf0984b and DXVK build c6356ac)

• GPU RTX 3070

• Driver Version 535.98

• This was tested with the Steam version of the game.

Attach logs! D3D9.log Pirates!_d3d9.log NvRemixBridge.log Bridge minidump: NvRemixBridge.exe_20230614_070548.zip

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

• Copy the RTX Remix builds into the root folder of Sid Meier's Pirates.

• Launch the Game

Expected behavior Game won't hook. All that can be seen is a black screen in the game window.

Hello! Will you please test this on the latest release and let us know if the issue persists? Thank you!

[NV-LL]

Thank you for reaching out. We're going to close this ticket due to an extended period with no response. If the issue persists for you on the latest build, please open a new ticket.

This is because the executable launches the game virtualized, thus it uses system librairies instead of the local ones (but the launcher uses the local d3d9, explaining why you still got logs.)

I got it to work today, will issue a patch for Sid Meier's Pirates! on my personal Github soon!
