Sadly all the new Nvidia drivers break P3DV2 so I can't update. I wish Nvidia would fix the problem cuz right now I'm running 337.88 still.

Thanks for the heads up!

[darla]

nice topic........ Thank you 

[FuriousMeow]

Working great, thanks LR!

[E69_Luke]

Tested IL-2 default profile and works great!! Before, I had some strange banding in the sky using default profile, and I had to solve the problems tweaking it, and now all is ok.

 

Also, Prepar3D v2.3 is working perfectly, without blue triangles.  Tnx Nvidia!

[1PL-Husar-1Esk]

Is there (new drivers) SLI support for BOS ?

[ericshark]

Has anyone with Triple screens been able to test this yet? at work till late

I have installed the driver but I can't find BoS in Games list...

Same here...

Warning for all new Nvidia driver users!

 

After installing the new driver I coudln't launch BoS anymore due to strange issues with corrupted dll files. I had to replace the dll in BoS folder with the one from  my system folder to get it working again. Yet I'm still getting this error when using SweetFX 1.51 everytime I launch the game, though it at least runs.

 

If you're using SweetFX be sure to disable it afterwards or don't update at all. I couldn't notice any performance boost whatsoever with my GTX 660 so I'll probably revert it in the end.

I can't find BoS in the list of supported games either.  Is there something we need to do to trigger it?

[Soarfeat]

Hey LastRights,

 

Thanks for the heads up !!!! Will install after work today.

Have missed seeing you online--( I have not been able to fly as much in the evening due to real life stuff---oh well )

Hope to see you in the cyber skies soon --

 

Cheers--sf--

Anyone, anyone?

Have not installed yet.  Is there a 344.11 and SweetFX conflict as [JG26]Stuka seems to have?

[1PL-Husar-1Esk]

I try SLI support, i don't like cheap SweetFX  

[ST_ami7b5]

Have not installed yet.  Is there a 344.11 and SweetFX conflict as [JG26]Stuka seems to have?

I used FlightFX for quite a long time but stopped recently because of some shimmering in distance.

Maxed all I could in 'standard' environment and I'm quite happy with it.

[6./ZG26_5tuka]

It says (roughtly) "The procedure starting point 'Direct3dcreate9Ex' has not been found inside the DLL 'd3d9.dll". First I had this with stock BoS as well, now (with explained workround) only when enabling SweetFX, 1.51.

 

Maybe someone can reproduce this bug and give some clarification on what's going on...

[VBF-12_Stick-95]

Roger that [Jg26]Stuka.  I installed 344.11.  BOS ran fine without SweetFX.  When I activated SweetFX I received the error message.  Deactivated SweetFX and all is well again.

 

Looks like a shader conflict.

[von_Greiff]

...here everything works! Installed it with nvidia expierience.

[NastyDog]

works fine fore me whit flight fx

Installed it with nvidia expierience.

[Dakpilot]

Manual clean driver instal,l both my vanilla install and SweetFX 1.5 install working fine

 

Cheers Dakpilot

[VBF-12_Stick-95]

For anyone that has SweetFX 1.5 working could you please post your nVidia settings?  My current settings are posted below though I have tried a number of variations without success.  In game I am using Ultra preset and AA Off.  For SweetFX no AA.

nVidia - Manage 3D Settings:
Ambient Occlusion - Not Supported for this application
Anisotropic filtering - 16x
Antialiasing - FXAA - On
Antialiasing - Gamma correction - On
Antialiasing - Mode - Enhance the application setting
Antialiasing - Setting - 8x CSAA
Antialiasing - Transparency - 4x Supersampling
CUDA - GPUs - All
Maximum pre-rendered frames - 3
Multi-display/mixed GPU acceleration - Single display performance mode
Power management mode - Adaptive
Shader Cache - On
Texture filtering - Anisotropic sample optimization - Off
Texture filtering - Negative LOD bias - Clamp
Texture filtering - Quality - High Quality
Texture filtering - Trilinear optimization - On
Threaded optimization - Auto
Triple buffering - On
Vertical sync - Use the 3D Application setting
Virtual Reality pre-rendered frames - 1

 

I am also noticing that even at lower settings this driver does not seem as smooth in game as 340.12.

[1PL-Husar-1Esk]

SLI is working. 

[DD_Arthur]

Installed the drivers manually.  I run SweetFX and get the error message too.  However, if I click on the ok box four or five times it goes away and the game runs o.k. with SweetFX.  Bit of a pain though.

 

However, loaded the new Nvidia profile via Nvidia Inspector, disabled FlightFX and am running 4 x AA.  Game looks and runs brilliantly on my 660ti so I'm going to start tweaking the Nvidia control panel settings.

[VBF-12_Stick-95]

I reinstalled 340.52.  Still get the error with SweetFX but can click through them and it works.  I get much less stutter with 340.12 vs 344.11.

It works from beginning ( clean driver install

without adjustments). GTX 590

[ST_ami7b5]

Again,

how do you guys deploy the 'new BoS profile'?

Where is it?

BoS doesn't appear among supported games in NVIDIA GeForce Experience...

 

I did a clean install.

Edited September 20, 2014 by ST_ami7b5

[SCG_Tzigy]

i think i have it! either clean driver install or remove old profile and add again! now there is new BOS icon! will report back later

I have added BoS to game list in NVIDIA control panel and it has the BoS icon.

Is this what you are talking about?

Not the list of supported games in NVIDIA GeForce Experience?

Still bit confused...

 

Because in NVIDIA control panel BoS has every item set to 'use global settings' - nothing else.

Same here...

 

... and here!

 

Even when I pointed the Preference locations directly at the 1C Games Studio directory.

You olways can check if profile is there with nvidia inspektor tool. With this tool you can add more AA and SSGS, AF etc to the BOS who lack this settings in menu. (exept AA)

Make sure to download latest version too.

[SCG_Tzigy]

i did not use the nvidia experience panel or inspector

 

in the NCP, before the last driver update i did not have the icon, it appeared after i removed the profile and added it again (actually there are 2 now, one for the launcher, and one for the .exe file, its the exe file u point it to

 

yes u could use whatever global settings u have - don't have to do anything else, SLI just started working,

now adjust/tweak to your liking/frame rate
