Hookshot version

v2.1.0

What kind of problem

Graphics (missing, black or wrong-coloured things, lighting, flicker)

What happened

The title logo and menu appear, and audio and controller input work. Then the screen goes black and the 3D scene never appears. The game keeps running for a while.

Expected: the game's scene should render normally.

The log shows:

vk: no Vulkan 1.3 GPU
rx: the Vulkan back end did not start: WebGPU
rx: NVN record 48 not replayed (repeated on every frame)
rx: pipeline compilers: 1 pipelines
rx: present: 2048x1152 frames into 1280x720, so frames are being presented

I am already aware my card falls under unsupported, but perhaps the log might be helpful for if support for older cards like mine might be planned to any degree.

Where in the game

Immediately upon startup.

How often

Every time

Graphics card and driver version

AMD Radeon (TM) R9 390 Series (8 GB)

CPU, RAM and operating system

i5-10600K CPU @ 4.10GHz , 32GB RAM, Windows 10 Pro

Changes from the defaults

No response

Other software hooked into the game

No, nothing hooked in

I'm on the newest release, or the problem is still there on it.
I searched the open issues for this problem.
I'm not attaching game files, keys, hookshot.exe, the .bin caches or saves.

Thanks for the report. Reports of the same problem are now collected in #1001, which lists this one with your details and links back here, so one fix closes them together and the open list stays readable. Follow #1001 for the fix, and add new details there (or here). If this turns out to be a separate problem it will be reopened.
