Description

Vulkan is a high performance 3D graphics and computing API.
Some Windows applications use it directly but it is also used to provide Direct3D 11 and Direct3D 12 support for Windows applications. So this library is important for recent Windows games.

Resolution

On CrossOver 17 and greater, the simplest solution to fix this issue is to run:

/path/to/cxoffice/bin/cxfix missinglibvulkan missinglibvulkan.amd64

Or add --show-all to see how CrossOver would fix it on your platform and others.

Alternatively you may try one of the commands below.

• For 32-bit Windows applications
  • 64-bit Arch Linux : pacman -Syu lib32-vulkan-icd-loader
  • Debian : apt-get install libvulkan1:i386
  • 64-bit Fedora >= 25 : dnf install --best vulkan.i686 vulkan.x86_64
  • 64-bit Fedora >= 29 : dnf install --best vulkan-loader.i686 vulkan-loader.x86_64
  • 64-bit openSUSE : zypper install libvulkan1-32bit
     
• For 64-bit Windows applications
  • Arch Linux : pacman -Syu vulkan-icd-loader
  • Debian : apt-get install libvulkan1:amd64
  • Fedora >= 25 : dnf install --best vulkan.x86_64
  • Fedora >= 29 : dnf install --best vulkan-loader.x86_64
  • openSUSE : zypper install libvulkan1

Notes:

• cxfix --show-all may have more up-to-date fixes.
• The commands usually also apply to newer versions of the distributions above as well as derived distributions. So for instance a fix for Debian 7 may still be valid for the latest Debian Testing and is typically also applicable to Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Deepin and Pop! OS. Similarly a fix for Fedora likely also works on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS, etc.
