Nvidia Driver 280.36 WHQL
Anyone SLI Support now? IF not i really start to think they just lied to us saying an "upcoming driver release" would bring SLI supoport. We had, what 4 new drivers now sinde this statement? Just like min. 2 weeks until patch... its 3 weeks now and still nothing. Not even a statement. Even the biggest fans like i am one getting a little upset about this information policy now...

i do not think they will release a driver (profile/sli support) to support this game until they fix graphics which they are working on now. |

Haven't some people made their own profiles that gets SLI working, I know it's not as easy as if Nvidia add one of there own, but do a search I seem too recall something about it working, don't have SLI myself.

Nvidia will not look at CLOD for a long time, it would be impossible for them to get to grips with the game as it is far to bugged. You can imagine Nvidia saying " you want us to make a SLI profile for this, when you have no FSAA, you have stuttering, shimmering and pop up buildings?" The dev's have no idea what they are doing regarding SLI & FSAA so what chance have Nvidia got of sorting it? Last edited by Tree_UK; 08-26-2011 at 08:20 AM. |

I think it's not going to happen until the new graphics engine is patched into the sim and somehow it even makes sense that way.
I mean, why go to all the trouble of contacting nVidia/Ati and spending valuable time trying to get their ear (as they will invariably pay more attention to other titles) when the entire graphics engine is being redone? We're well into the minimum time frame specified by the developers for the new graphics engine reaching beta stage (they said minimum two weeks for beta, plus a week minimum of testing before the patch goes live, we're in the third week currently), we all know deadlines tend to slip by at times, so let's just make a moderate assumption with a nice, big error margin and say that the new graphics engine will be here in a month from now. Well, it might take as much as or more than a month of back and forth correspondence to get nVidia/Ati to release SLI/Crossfire profiles, then waiting for the next driver release that will include them. In other words, by the time the profiles are here they may be obsolete due to the new graphics engine. I know it's hard to wait at times, but seeing how the sim is nicely flyable on my two year old PC with a single GPU, what i would do if i was using SLI/Crossfire would be to make a custom profile that disables one of my GPUs when running CoD, turn down a couple of settings and fly in the meantime. I've been recently getting another urge to dive deeper into how stuff works in the sim, so i moved from fighters to bombers and have been having a blast the last couple of days. Making a couple of very simple practice missions in the FMB, letting the AI fly them to test things out, then flying them myself to do some bombing practice, fiddling with the bigger, more complicated aircraft...it all helps pass the time very nicely until the patch arrives Last edited by Blackdog_kt; 08-26-2011 at 09:31 AM. |

Agreed, so explain that to us and not say the opposite, because it just looks like "avoiding the truth" when you do.

Why go to waste money for an unfinished game? Why to buy or preorder a game and spend a lot of money now and then wait months for a playble game? Did I pay 50euro for a game that run at best on a two years old pc? So how much do I really had to pay for a two years old pc game? Devs said "sli working" but I can't play cod with sli enabled at my monitor's native HD resolution. I preordered the game a lot of months ago and I played cod four times. I don't want my money back just because I continue to trust a little in devs but I personally think that this thing is a big shame. I'm sorry for my bad english, I hope you understand me anyway. |
