[TIP] nVidia 9x.xx drivers do not like OpenGL in Ryzom

Post by Zerlin »

We have been getting many complaints about graphical issues from folks using the 91.41, 91.47 and 92.91 nVidia drivers.
If you are having some crash, white objects or strange shadows types of errors then you should run the external game configuration and switch the game to use Direct3D mode. By default Ryzom will use nVidia cards in OpenGL mode.
To access the external game configuraion you can select it from the game launcher or via the 'all programs' menu in Windows. Select 'Display' and then 'Direct3d' and click the 'apply' button. You may get prompted to switch to 'OpenGL' mode whenever you launch the game so say 'no'

The 93.71 drivers are very stable if installed correctly.
