New nvidia driver 531.29

[Saintdude3]

Anyone get better performance with the new driver

[Phen]

RTX 3080. I had a bug with ultra-bright environments. Never had it before. After a quick search, turns out it's a bugged Raytracing Shadows/Lighting. After disabling it, brightness was fixed but graphics without raytracing is significantly worse :(

I updated about 1 hour ago game plays fine so far have not crashed.

So update to 531.29 or stay at 528.49?
edit: I took a chance on the new driver, game seems to start fine (no crash at shader compilation or loading a savegame). Long time performance gonna has to be evaluated still.

No black screen here

I'm going to copy past the solution for the black screens after new drivers are installed, I offered elsewhere and seems to work for myself and others, so give that a try;

Go to your C:\programdata\hogwarts legacy folder, Its a hidden folder so make it visible in the 'view' tab and remove the four files in that folder. The game will make new ones as you start.

As stated above, there is no HL specific driver, so you have to help a bit.

So this definitely did help the shader loading :) But unlike others it seems, I could load into game but just be stuck in environment (could move camera but thats it).

It's almost like you need to study computers to fully understand whats even going on.

I'm above recommended specs for this game. I don't think it's how my PC is built.

Yet, all the people i have chatted with to fix their game have all solved their issues, you don't see them anymore, but you do you my bud.

Black screen is for 30 to 40 sec, then game start. Works fine with lates drivers.

Black screen is usually because thats when the game loads the shaders depending on your graphics cards shader cache size
