Tacitus Posted December 7, 2003 Share Posted December 7, 2003 Looking at the posts since CMBO was launched the drivers of choice were the 30.82.Has anyone had problems with 45.23? CMAK works fine with whatever it is I`ve got so I`m a bit cautios to upgrade. Any thoughts anyone?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted December 7, 2003 Share Posted December 7, 2003 If it works fine, why screw with it ? The only reason I could think of is if you use other games that have a preference for other Detonator/Forceware drivers. If CM is your primary addiction, I'd recommend staying with the 30.82/30.87 drivers. Newer drivers basically support newer videocards, have fixes for other games and some speed improvements for some cards. However they also often have other problems and often the video quality is a bit worse (to 'accomodate' the 'speed improvements'). Certain drivers may look or work better with different games, so it is a bit of a tossup. If your video card can use the 30.82/30.97 drivers, then we'd recommend those. If you have a newer video card (AGP 8X or the FX series) then the 52.16 (or possibly newer betas) should be fairly good. Some of the earlier 4x.xx drivers (42.xx, 43.xx, 44.xx) have some severe performance problems in CM (and possibly other games). The 45.xx series I believe worked OK. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
