vulkan crash in DOOM 2016

[pascuerina]

hello, I have the problem with the DOOM 2016 game that when I change to vulkan I had to restart the game and I did it, all good but when I went to open the game it opens but when the loading screens finished and all that, before being able to even select the game mode PUM crashed the pc eye the PC not even the game, well I didn't worry that maybe it was just that time and I opened it about 4 more times, and I worried a lot, and that's why this message,

I would love for you to give me a solution that does not have to lose data or reinstall the game thanks in advance.

First page account>beta partipicating. I am not sure if this is the fix, someone write somewhere the beta do have a fix for vulcan crashing in Doom.

Even you do reinstall, it will keep every change you make, like choosing Vulcan. I am not sure how to change back to OpenGL since there is no .cfg or .ini files in gamedirectory which we can edit themself. (curious why not).

there is a config.
go to C:\Users\your user\Saved Games\id Software\DOOM\base

look for a file named DOOMConfig.local, open with a notepad or text editor.

see for a variable named `r_renderAPI`

set 0 for openGL, set 1 for Vulkan.

I have found by chance another solution:

"Try this:
Right Click Doom in your game list
Go to properties
Go to "set launch options"
Type +r_renderapi 0
Apply "

As you said: 0=OpenGL and 1=Vulcan

defeats the purpose of wanting to run doom 16 in vulkan if your just gonna use opengl
