Rejoce! There's finally a fix for the indoor Lag! Nvidia 8800 - 9600

I think most are supported under the same driver, so possible yes.

can I get a direct link to said drivers? the ones I get through their auto-detect thing keep telling my I'm hardware incompatible and won't install

I think the Screenshot bug is a vista problem where as the lag was a 8800 problem.

 The screenshot bug is due to the way vistas new driver structure handles layered textures.  where as the lag bug was the way in which the GFX card handled its cache

Its good to know new players, if they have a good graphics card, they dont have to use a 'workaround' to play the game ^_^

Next up, Vista... but with Microsoft, I am not going to hold my breath

Are those drivers just for the 8000+ or are they standard across the range?

Edit: Never mind, I've just checked out the site, I'll be updating later on tonight whilst waiting for the update notes and IR...

If you look at the products supported page it goes from the 9xxx series all the way down to the 5xxx series.

This is pretty awesome! A step in the right direction, at the least.

Indeed!   Now we just need a Vista fix and we'll be set.

It looks good so far, but there is still some tiny bit of lag in some of the indoor locations in my opinion.

I think it depends on the power of the computer anyway. If you've got a top of the range computer newly built I doubt you'll even notice.

My current test was posted in the technical thread.  Of course I am currently on a cell card, but I didn't think running in a circle should lag.

Sometimes, there's just glitches in the matrix, I mean your system, you can be sporting the best of the best specs and drivers, but for no god dam  reason, have the worst bench test possible, it's all down to installed active componants and runtime programs, try opening msconfig in the Start > Run command and disable all in the start up tab, maybe you'll have a fix, or a complete OS system failure, it's a dice game..... different for each individual in my experience.

[EDIT] I just wee'd a little because I wanted to finish what I was typing, but in text there's no real time line other than post stamp, but I for some reason hoped to post it before loosing my urinational controll, well, enough said, I gotta go change! lol

If you install these drivers, do you still need the file from http://forums.station.sony.com/mxo/..._id=36300021159 ?
