nwn and Gtx 460 graphics card

[Baaleos]

               New Beta Driver is out today - Im installing now to see if it resolves anything. So far, no mention in the release notes of NWN 1, Just some nwn2 fixes among others.
               
               

               
            

[Baaleos]

               Issue remains...
Driver version 275.50 beta.

They promised a fix for this issue in the june release... they are leaving it late, if the beta hasnt even come out yet.

               Usually if there is no mention in the release notes, there is no update for a particular issue.
               
               

               
            

[Baaleos]

               They didnt mention 'creating' the issue in any of their release notes, never know when they might add in some hidden surprises.

               **Bump**Bump**
nVidia have said that the fix has been added to the drivers - but the drivers wont be released till mid-July/End July.

I suppose its nice to get a confirmation that the fix is now in place by the company.

               any word?
               
               

               
            

[Baaleos]

               last word from nVidia was that the patch would be released mid-July, to End of July, but then again, they said it would be in the June release too.... which it wasnt.


I am auto-updating my nVidia drivers every night, just in case.

At the minute, I am just about able to go into the game, as DM, but I have to unequip all fabric armor, and hoods etc, otherwise I get stuttery fps.
               
               

               
            

[Baaleos]

               The Update should be out either today, tonight, or tomorrow.

nVidia promissed that the patch would be out by end of month.

That being said.... they did say it would be mid to late june too....

               I actually saw that when I was on the bus home from work, I am installing them now to see if it resolves the nwn issue.
They dont specifically mention the nwn issue in the release notes.

Hopfully, it makes the game playable.
I get like 9 fps when 3 players and 10 monsters are fighting eachother, and dont even ask me how to describe what an Isaacs Greater Missile Storm looks like at 9fps.
Imagine Spagettification of a Magic Missile.
               
               

               
            

[Baaleos]

               Bingo!!!

Playable game
118 fps when a cloak is on screen,   kinda drops sporadically when action is happening, but its still above 30fps.

               Great!
Now I can finally buy a new video card.
