Contrary to popular belief, we are not all-knowing-all-seeing magical beings!

If you want help you're going to have to provide lots of info. Like what is your hardware, what is your operating system, what version of GZDoom/LZDoom/whatever you're using, what mods you're loading, how you're loading it, what you've already tried for fixing the problem, and anything else that is even remotely relevant to the problem.

We can't magically figure out what it is if you're going to be vague, and if we feel like you're just wasting our time with guessing games we will act like that's what you're really doing and won't help you.

GZDoom Vulkan crashes on start up with a fatal error.

This only started happening recently (so I assume it's because of me upgrading my system).
So, I guess I'll just give some background on my system:
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650
  • Driver version: 535.183.01
  • Vulkan version: 1.3.242
  • OS: Debian 12
  • GZDoom version: g4.12.2
I hope that's about all I need to say.

So, I now get this error message when trying to boot up GZDoom with Vulkan renderer and it also happens with VKDoom:
Fatal error
Could not create pipeline cache: out of device memory
The game works fine if I use the OpenGL renderer.

What a weird error. Try delete the .zdpc files in %localappdata%\zdoom\cache (Windows) or $HOME/.config/zdoom/cache (Linux) and see if that fixes it.

That seems to have fixed it! Thanks!
