When using DXVK with Mafia II Definitive Edition it will freeze on the startup splash page and not respond, at which point Windows brings up the popup to give the options of Close or Wait to respond. When I remove the files it will run just fine but in its native DX11 mode. I copied over the d3d11.dll and dxgi.dll files next to the game exe. When I first launched the game it ran normally and RTSS overlay showed it was using Vulkan. Next time I launched the game it froze. I tried disabling the performance overlays and closing RTSS in the background too but nothing helped.
