Update

Menu works almost perfectly, but if I start a new game Xenia says: The quest has crashed. Xenia paused itself.

Not even getting into the menus; You see the loading screen with the green Turok logo for a second before it crashes.

d3d12_readback_resolve = false was set to true when i started a new game, reset it to false when the screen tearing happened, no noticeable lag performance issues while it was true though

• tricky to get past initial error and load to menu, something about timing.
• flickering in menu and occasionally bright artifacts in gameplay. Can be fixed with F5.

Thread affinity set to 1 core can avoid crashing. Alternatively time_scalar can be used before launching the game, however it has to be speed up, not slowed down (at least on my system). Jacking it up to x64 and resetting shortly after the game starts running works for me.

The game itself looks ok, completed a bit of tutorial with no glaring issues. Saving works. Performance pretty good once the shaders are compiled.
