Nvidia released the new Game Ready Driver 581.29 today. This driver is the latest in their Game Ready Driver series and includes the latest Nvidia technology support for games such as Borderlands 4 and Dying Light: The Beast.
Also included in this update is a fix for Marvel Rivals that was introduced with the 581.xx driver series. This fix is said to address an issue where players were experiencing lower than expected performance for the Marvel filled hero shooter.
Unfortunately, some bugs are still listed as "open issues" with this new driver release. Notably, Counter-Strike 2 still has a text distortion issue when playing at a lower resolution than the native resolution of the display. There are also open issues for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth (light flickering on some PC configurations) and Adobe Premiere Pro (freezing during export when using hardware encoding).
Nvidia also updated RTX Remix through the Nvidia app today. This update adds an advanced particle system that will allow modders to "enhance traditional fire and smoke effects."
Additionally, we’ve released a new RTX Remix update through NVIDIA app, adding an advanced particle system that enables modders to enhance traditional fire and smoke effects, as well as more fantastical effects, like those in Portal. Now, modders can create brand new particles in Remix that match the look of those found in modern titles. This opens the door for over 165 RTX Remix compatible games to have advanced particle effects for the first time, and we can’t wait to see all the ways modders dazzle gamers with realistic and spectacular effects.
All that said, here’s a look at the newest games and how NVIDIA’s RTX technology is delivering the definitive PC experience for GeForce RTX players:
