Thanks mate that's what Iäve been waiting for whole weekend =)

Phoenix · September 8th, 2003

Have you tested them fivefeet8?

D.D. · September 8th, 2003

I think the omegas based on the 3.7 cats are available also.

GSDragoon · September 9th, 2003

Yup, omega has been at work. 3.7 cat's and 45.23 det's, nice. Downloading now.

Quote:

New in version (1.4523):
* Based on the Official 45.23 drivers. (9x/Me/2k/XP)

* Important: Due to a serious problem I'm having with current nvidia drivers,
they will work in "Performance" mode only in direct3d, even if you select "Quality"
during installation, opengl still has the extra quality.
They will be updated as soon as I can fix this problem.

Well, I use performance anyways.

I was wondering if the omega drivers that I just downloaded a couple of days ago were the 3.7's. I guess they were the 3.6's. I'll test out the new one

. The omega 3.6 drivers worked very well on my 9500 pro. I was able to run NASCAR 4 with max graphics settings at 1024x768 (32 bit color) with 6X FSAA and 16X AF turned on with 60+ fps. I wonder if these new drivers will speed up Counter-Strike as I have been having a little slowdown in certain areas.

**Yeloazndevil** · September 9th, 2003

alright, been waiting for these

**n_w95482** · September 9th, 2003

Well I installed them and it disabled AGP texture acceleration in dxdiag and I can't get it enabled. Guess I'll have to go back to the 3.6 drivers. Are you supposed to uninstall the old drivers first?

Erm, these are for nvidia cards not ati's

**n_w95482** · September 9th, 2003

Ah sorry about that

. I saw one of the posts mention the 3.7 drivers as well and I thought that this thread was about both. Ignore my previous posts

.

I'm still testing them, but my preliminary findings are looking good. Same speed as the OMega 44.03's but with all the bug fixes of the 45.23's. I'm gonna keep these a bit.

GTa vice city doesn't stutter anymore with no framelimiting. It use to stutter without it enabled. But now its smooth as silk and running 50-60 fps with 8xS, 8xAF-qaulity.

Same with MotoGp2. :guitar:

More findings as I test some more.

Phoenix · September 9th, 2003

alright seem that they worth the try, thanks for the feedback 5'8, I'll test them.
I'd like to know sxamiga's and yeloazndevil's opinions as well

**hushypushy** · September 9th, 2003

do i have to uninstall my old drivers before i install omega's? does it matter? in the past i installed omega's drivers first, before the dets

no, u just install Omega's drivers over your current ones

**hushypushy** · September 9th, 2003

yeah, damn you beat me to it. i just installed them and i was about to make an edit saying "ok nevermind i got it". thanks yelo

**DarkAurora** · September 9th, 2003

These drivers are really good. I was able to keep over 20 FPS in the very slow Jedi Academy demo with 4xAA and 8xAF, both set in quality mode.

D.D. · September 9th, 2003

sooo....how are these compared to the "stock" 45.23s in terms of speed (in performance mode)?

**hushypushy** · September 10th, 2003

i would imagine, of course, that they are a little faster. but omega's drivers are mainly meant for "quality" mode, right....?

Taken from Omega's site :
2- THE PERFORMANCE SET HAS THE SAME VIDEO QUALITY AS THE NORMAL NVIDIA DRIVERS, BUT THEY INCLUDE OPTIMIZATIONS TO MAKE THEM FASTER THAN THE NVIDIA ONES.

Raqia · September 10th, 2003

If things are really as sweet as the Omega developer claims, why doesn't nVidia include tweaks similar to his by default?
