Summary0013296: Game does not appear while using multi GPU setup.
DescriptionDwarf Fortress Steam Edition does not appear, instead showing a black window or black screen when launched via Steam using a multiple GPU setup. If secondary GPU is unplugged, or game is launched on the primary GPU's first monitor, game is visible- however if window is moved to any other monitor, game blacks out and becomes unresponsive once more.
Steps To Reproduce-Launch game via Steam with primary GPU set in Windows as the preferred High Performance GPU
-Game is black window/screen and unresponsive


OR

-Launch game and move to monitor driven directly by primary GPU (no PCiE pass though)
-Move to other monitor
-Game blacks out and immediately becomes unresponsive


both situations require a task manager kill to close the game
Additional InformationTested with and without Lossless Scaling utility, AMD utilities, and overclocking/undervolt on/off. Tried forcing render GPU with steam launch args to no success.
