Yeah but that driver is bugged too, you can't overclock your GPU with that driver. The .35 driver is the same driver with that bug fixed. :cool:

Wow, I'm glad that I am so on top of driver updates that I managed to install 196.75 in the short time that it was up for download... :DL

Luckily, I haven't played anything on the computer since I'm consumed with Bad Company 2 on the 360, and, well, I'm still not buying SHV due to the OSP. :cry:

Thanks for the heads up! :up:
Going back to .34 driver.

Thanks and 'Phew'
Saw that the new drivers were available and downloaded them, but it was late so decided to install them today.
Don't think I'll bother now...

Hello
Same here, thanks for telling us. ;)

Still running my ancient Nvidia drivers..oh well whatever works no? :arrgh!:

a thousands thanks for the hads up. And what timing, as i just finally got the cojones to overclock my 8800GT. Probably the only thing that saved me was following oclocking instuctions to change fan speed of GPU to manual at 100%.

Good grief that was close. Rolled back to older driver though that ended up being a bit of an issue. every time i would reboot win 7 would reinstall the driver i was trying to get rid of-- with no ability to cancel installation! Anyway--got it done and thx again!

NVIDEA problems?
 

I am running a GTX295 and the game runs fantastic with shadows off but as soon as they are on even at 50% the game loses the smoothness.
I take it this is a driver problem?

I doubt this game is coded to work with 2 video cards which is what the GTX295 basically is. So take your vspecs and half it, and then you got your real video card power for this game.

It's a compatibility issue. While there may be an off-chance that having a different driver version would help, as far as I can tell the problem is common to all nvidia hardware. I hope it gets looked at for the next patch.

ATI cards do not have this problem and I run the shadows on full with no issues.

Typical, freefalcon 5.3 won't work on nvidea GTX295 and now SH5 will not use the sli function. Typical. Hopefully nvidea will address it in next driver that isn't borked.
Great game anyway.

You can force the cards to use "AFR Mode 2" in the control panel and it works with everything but shadows. Just FYI.

I'm running an NVIDIA Geforce 8800 GT and have no issues with the shadows maxed. Running DX11, driver version 196.21

There's a major problem with the most recent nVidia driver with sub-par performance and overheating. In fact, it's destroyed several cards from overheating. Read about it here:

This is bull... :yep: As I posted twice elsewhere I tested SH5 on an old rig with a Bfg7600GT 512mb card AGP and set SH5 Graphfics at medium. Latest drivers btw and...

Game played flawlessly.
