• I think they broke Reshade support on Linux and reinstalling the game doesn't fix it, you have to manually remove "dxgi.dll" in the steamapps/common/Dead by Daylight/DeadByDaylight/Binaries/Win64 folder, you might wanna go into desktop mode, open Steam and browse local files on DBD, go to DeadByDaylight/Binaries/Win64 and delete the .dll there. That fixed it for me at least.

• I think they broke reshade compatibility, I had to remove it and I had the same issue on Fedora, even after reinstalling it. Devs please make reshade work wit hEAC again, Windows can do it and it worked last patch.
