Red Faction II - Broken Menus/UI Regression

[anchorlightforge]

Describe the bug

• Despite working correctly in previous versions, at some point Red Faction II had a regression in which the UI becomes unusable.
• Version: Remix v0.3:
  • DXVK mirror
  • Bridge mirror
  • Both are compiled using the available source with no changes but a build.yml tweak
• GPU: Nvidia Geforce RTX 3080
• Driver: Nvidia Studio 536.67
• Version: GOG

Attach files!

• rf2_rtx_debug_setup.zip - DxWrapper, conf, and logs
• The included rtx.conf file is a new conf with the bare minimum requirements for a rasterized menu.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open rf2.exe
2. Go to 'Bot Match'; UI will collapse to just the top left corner of the screen
3. Try to go back from the Bot Match menu with Escape; menu bug will persist.
4. In rasterized view (raytracing disabled), the bug will still be present.

Expected behavior

• When scrolling through menus, the menu should be able to take the full amount of screen space; in previous builds the menus worked correctly, albeit fully rasterized once UI elements were tagged.
• When changing focus the window will freeze and crash on returning to focus; this is a known bug and affects the original game without Remix

Screenshots Remix view, both with and without raytracing Non-DXVK view (D3D8to9 with no Bridge)
