When I launch the game, the launcher's progress bar completes, but before the game can open, the launcher reopens with exit code 253. This also occurs when I install the latest version of the Vulkan SDK available for my system (1.3.296). The crash report is: [mediaInline]
When I append the -Dorg.lwjgl.librarypath=/usr/local/lib JVM argument for the installation, the game opens, and its loading bar completes, but either the screen goes black indefinitely, or the game crashes. The crash report is: [mediaInline]
These crashes occur for all three 26.2 snapshots. My system runs previous versions of the game (such as 26.1.2) well.
