In my extensive testing for the Crash in Battles i came across a Matrix Game Folder in C:\Windows.
C:\Windows\Matrix Games\Distant Worlds 2\

Re: DXVK - Workaround against the battle Crashes

I need to add another issue in this Workaround.
When you have visited a battle and zoom out again in Galaxyview there is a huge fps drop.

Until you zoom in again.
When you first start the game with this Workaround the Galaxymap is fast too.
