Thanks, I'm tempted to go back to the 178 drivers just for kicks.

Edit: or maybe try the 180.60 CUDA beta or the 180.70 leaked beta

hmhmhm

Damn, 178.24 had 0 effect. Still choppy. Sad

Hmm, nice. Only thing I hate about is those blurry textures, over bloom and bad shadows. So 2 out of 3 ain't bad. Have to give it a try. Hope it doesn't disable it, I like the looks, but just a bit less. Sun is nice, although it doesn't work half the time Very Happy

edit: works great and looks soo much better. Textures didn't seem to slow the game down at all.. Now if someone figures out how to soften those shadows then I'd be real happy.

edit 2: well shadows was quite easily "fixed". Turning shadow quality to low disables dynamic shadows along with they jagged edges. Low shadows look relatively smooth, but they do pop up couple meters in front of the car. Medium/high shadows look so horrid that I mind that less Smile

Game ran like a champ for me. C2D, 8800GT, 2GB, Vista 64. No idea what my FPS was but it never once got choppy or had any slow down I noticed.

Game sucked though.

I must be blind, I don't see any improvement with the texture. The only difference is that instead of sunshine and happiness, we now have matrix like gloom and doom. The only thing that is missing is guys in latex and expensive sunglasses.

It appears he just sharpened the textures, not replacing them with higher resolution material.

Need For Speed Series Possibly Cut By EA
Director of communications says publisher is "working through a process" with their products.
By Philip Kollar, 12/12/2008

Not more than a month after the release of Need For Speed: Undercover, the Electric Playground is reporting that Electronic Arts may be cutting the franchise entirely. The videogame web show claims that future titles in the series have been canceled. EA director of communications Colin Macrae provided Electric Playground with the following comment:

"We're working through a process on people, products, and facilities at EA and don't have any announcements today."

Undercover, the most recent entry in the long-running franchise, was received fairly well but didn't crack the top 20 in the NPD sales charts for the month of November. Earlier in the year, EA CEO John Riccitiello had spoken of plans to split the Need for Speed development team into two groups, allowing for a 24-month cycle for creating each game rather than the 12 months cycle that he said "torture[d] a very talented group of people."

If this report is true, I'm disappointed that we'll never get the chance to see what could have come from giving this series a much-needed boost in development time to try out new ideas. And unless the publisher already has new plans for the creators of Need For Speed, we could be seeing further layoffs from EA soon, as has been previously predicted. We'll keep checking for official confirmation and word from EA on what's happening to the Need for Speed franchise and why.

That's obviously their problem. Spew out a game in the series no matter what, or wait until you have a decent product with new ideas and is fun to play?

They'll probably lay off alot opf people which will lead to a stop of several franchises. Let's hope they'll drop their old and milked to death franchises. It would be a big shame if franchises like Mirror's Edge or Dead Space have to go.
