NVIDIA Performance Problem Update - April 2021 - 466.11

https://youtu.be/guU3KdBR3_s
Ran into this which fixes supcom2. Haven't tested because I don't update my drivers, but maybe it will help someone.

We could looking into integrating that into the client. The Nvidia fix mod is part of the next patch.

edit: it would require giving the client admin privileges and that is far from ideal.

@jip Yeah, it's a bad choice when the console command works for the majority of people. It will also likely be fixed again soon.

Also it's worth noting that this prevents people from using the NVIDIA Control Panel and there's possibly other consequences that make it not desirable for us to interfere with it.

So the 26/11 has come and gone and I have been watching my Nvidia Driver for an update but I have not seen anything yet? Has the date been delayed or am I missing something?

I should've updated my post - due to a miss communication the balance patch and the developers patch would be released on the same day (the 26th). As this is a bad idea and due to LoTS we decided to go for the balance patch and move back the developers patch after LoTS. It is now set to the 20th - it does the same as the Nvidia fix mod does (once activated). You can use that until the 20th.

This issue has returned.

@Jip has said

We're going to add the 'Nvidia fix' to the base repository with the next patch 3726 on the 26th of November.

In the mean time you can use the console command or Nvidia fix mod.

What is the console command?
