NVIDIA GeForce 466.47 drivers – hotfix

[roguepacket]

Hey, I just wanted to let folks know about a new hotfix that was released. After I installed 466.47 drivers a couple weeks ago I kept getting repeated crashing during my Vorpx plays of RE7 and RE8. I initially thought it might be Vorpx but I ruled that out. I ended up creating a second Windows 10 OS clean install (and then I removed all bloatware with blackbird and decrapifier). That seemed to fix the issue for RE7 anyway, although it did freeze on me once. RE8 became unplayable due to framerate drops. If the freezing kept up I was about to see about troubleshooting with perfmon, but when I opened SteamVR today I noticed a new announcement about a hotfix that would apply to me.

Here’s the link:

I’m eager to try this out. I know it’s not directly Vorpx related, but what originally lead me to this forum was trying to figure out what the problem could be. I’m posting this here in case others run into the same problem.

Thanks!

Report: No more crashes, but RE8 is painfully slow unless I set everything to low. It wasn’t like that on the original driver, so I’m considering rolling back and testing further.
