32-bit game compatibility issue

[jhlee0637]

Hi,

I encountered a compatibility issue with "Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy".

This game is a 32-bit application, but I assume the app automatically installs the 64-bit version of dxgi.dll.
Proton silently ignores the installed dxgi.dll (no crash, no error message) and falls back to the built-in system library.
As a result, the ReShade overlay simply does not appear.

I attached the log file.
There are no explicit err:module errors, but the DXVK log clearly identifies the game as a 32-bit build:

info:  Game: PWAAT.exe
info:  DXVK: v2.6.2-23-g3cb664e1260926e
info:  Build: x86 gcc 10.3.0

To solve, I manually replaced the dxgi.dll with the same file from my Windows 10 desktop's ReShade installation, and it worked.

Could you verify if the target executable is 32-bit or 64-bit before installation?

If auto-detection is difficult, providing a toggle for the user to manually select "32-bit" would be a great solution.

Thanks!

Yeah the problem I noticed is that it points to the x64 files of reshade and not 32 with every 32bit games I tested in the last 2 months.

Have to manually go to desktop mode and edit the simlink to replace 64 by 32.

Would be great if the detection could be better, or allow to manually select 32 bits

can you drop the source for the dll?
