I always remembered that it looked better than Flatout 2 ... but its more blurry and low textured than Flatout 2 imo, water and reflections look a bit nicer though and there's more AI opponents racing. Other than that its just Flatout 2 with few tweaks here and there.

Also for some reason it shows Controller prompts in the menus, Even though i have no controllers connected. Still works with keyboard though, just have to remember the buttons.


Works out of box with Proton 9.0 (Beta) that i had selected.

Warhammer Online Return of Reckoning
Sons of the Forest
Red Dead Redemption 2
THE FINALS
FarLight 84

Shouldn't the powerlimit range come from VBIOS anyway.. depending on the GPU.
136W minimum for a 6600XT surely sounds a bit too high for a Minimum. On nvidia at least usually the limit ranges are sane. Higher end GPUs have higher minimum thats allowed.

RTX 3080 for example:

 GPU Power Readings
        Power Draw                        : 37.30 W
        Current Power Limit               : 370.00 W
        Requested Power Limit             : 370.00 W
        Default Power Limit               : 370.00 W
        Min Power Limit                   : 100.00 W
        Max Power Limit                   : 370.00 W

Quoting: Minux

Spoiler, click me

If you use x11 you shouldn't have faced any issue. The problem is with Wayland. I've been suffering them and there are a lot of people having too, you can check their forums on the Linux section.

Although 535 was still stable for me, some people already had some then. And they messed enough with them to make playing on Wayland impossible. They were really outdoing themselves for a while, I almost got some hope thinking playing on Wayland as an Nvidia user would be possible.

Ahh ok, wayland, yeah, but X11 still works perfectly, so why is there sudden rush with wayland? its not even default on most distros yet.. Give it some time.

security issues has been a thing for quite some time for many things. Usually developers get some time to prepare fixes ahead when those issues are discovered and before becoming public. So i dont really see much of a problem with that since all the drivers have been already updated with fixes.

what mess has nvidia made with drivers recently? the drivers have been working flawlessly for me quite some time... i think there where few game regressions with early 535 versions but updated ones fixed those and 545.xx and current 550.xx have been super solid also.

Quoting: TheRiddickAll good.

What I would like NVIDIA to be doing is release a update o NVReflex and Frame Generation support, that be neat.

afaik reflex will work once that gets merged:

Yeah, seems thats the reason i haven't had any crashes at all with the game.
Always wondered why some people had so many crashes with this game.

So far seems to work like all previous drivers (535 and 545) for me. No issues to report.
Im on X11 though so yeah. Cant complain really. Everything works as expected.

Portal with RTX and prelude was very well made. Textures were replaced there also. Enjoyed playing through it again.
Half life 2 Looks great from the few shots it shows in the video. Modders are amazing!
Hopefully it will have decent performance, but i dont have high hopes for performance with anything related to RT really at least on native resolutions.
