Solution to the No Animations Bug!

[Kyron The Wise, Esq.]

Got this from another thread.
hey guys i found the answer, if you use nvidia open your nvidia control panel, go to 3d setings and make sure dark souls 2 is using the high performance nvidia processor. this fixed it for me. pass it on and dont let this bug ruin a great game launch. see you in drangleic.

So here is what you do for those who are confused.

1.) down on your taskbar, near the clock and all of the icons, press the arrow.
2.) There should be a green symbol called NVIDIA settings. Click it
3.) In the new window, go to Manage 3d settings
4.) Click add (Next to 1. Select a program to customize)
5.) Navigate to your steam folder, find the dark souls 2 folder, then game, then click the Dark Souls 2 exe.
6.) Under the 2nd bar on the nvidia panel, change it to High Performance Nvidia processor.
7.) Boom. It should work.

Its a bug where animated objects will fail to load in properly. Fog gates will be solid white, there will be no fire, etc. You will know it if you see it

Sarcasm noted.

In all seriousness, it typically happens on nvidia cards.
