Doom Vulkan Crash Problem

[Veczen]

So i just got my new, second hand, AMD R9 280X Sapphire Dual X 3Gb graphics card and i finally (i don't have the fastest net around) installed Doom and im running it, eh, pretty okay i guess, i mean it looks pretty good but i know it can do better with Vulkan. So here's the issue, my old R7 240 could run Vulkan (although performance was even more dead then with OpenGL) but now everytime i choose the Vulkan API, Doom doesn't even want to start, only sends me a crash report. And the only things that changed since the time i tried running are the Doom version, my GPU, my PSU (obvious reasons) and the drivers. So i will appreciate whatever help i can get.

and the drivers.

Have you tried using DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) and downloading+installing new drivers again?

Did you just install the card without reinstalling your drivers?

[Veczen]

Oh yeah, i forgot to mention but i downloaded and clean installed all the drivers with the option that was included in the AMD Install thingy, so drivers are super up to date.

Sorry for being a bit late with the response, was playing competitive CS:GO.

Try replacing vulkan-1.dll with vulkan-1-1-0-21-0.dll in %Windows%\System32.

Sorry to say this but i finished the game quite a long time ago now. Still thanks for trying. I might try that if i decide to replay it again someday.
For how i solved the problem. Well i just ran the game with Windows 10 instead of 7, since i have the luxury of dual boot. But i still do prefer Windows 7 over 10.
