Finally, after waiting for a few months NVIDIA has released a new mainline driver which includes Transform Feedback support. Previously, you had to use their special Vulkan beta driver to get it.
The "VK_EXT_transform_feedback" extension is one that was made especially for helping support translation layers from other 3D APIs. In our case, it helps DXVK plus Wine (and so Valve's Steam Play) with certain Windows games when run on Linux.
Additionally, this 415.22 release also adds in the fixed-up support for Unity games not working and solves a build failure with the Linux Kernel 4.20 release candidates.
If you're on Ubuntu, keep an eye on this PPA where it should land in the next few days for easy installation and updating. I just hope the PPA doesn't break Vulkan again when updating like it did recently. I've sent the maintainers of that PPA a message to notify them of the new release.
For other distributions, you likely already know where to look. For those installing manually, see the NVIDIA website.

Heads up to folks on this thread.
We just released the 415.22 mainline driver at the
usual place https://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html.
This contains a fix for Unity games running under
Proton/Wine and also supports VK_EXT_transform_feedback.
Enjoy.

I wonder if this is the reason why Proton wasn't updated in a month.
mmm...

Hmm, New NV and Wine :) I will have to test if Rust became playable or not :)
Now let's sprinkle over some DXVK seasoning and we got an amazing weekend ahead of us :D

I wonder why this driver in not yet available at Ubuntu ppa?
“Patience you must have my young padawan” ;)
I wonder why this driver in not yet available at Ubuntu ppa?The PPA team is aware, they also have jobs as well (this isn't their job), so updates to the PPA are essentially whenever they have free time to do so.
Honestly, I would like to see Ubuntu have something more official for this in future.

- driver 396.54.09 shows Vulkan 1.1.85
- driver 415.22.0 shows Vulkan 1.1.84
At least I've seen this on twitch videos, and I'm not sure if I'm missing something here?

I'm wondering... does the Vulkan version (e.g. shown by the DXVK overlay) not correlate with the driver version? I thought so. And if so, it seems that the newer nvidia driver comes with an older Vulkan version?

Curiously with 415.18.04 appears this
