Those with higher end GPUs and weaker CPUs will be able to achieve higher framerates.

Makes sense why my FX 6300 and 1060 gives 4-5 more frames and better frametimes than the last patch. For me, the difference was immediately noticeable when I fired the benchmark.

[UpTheDowngrade 212]

I seem to have gained 1fps average after the patch (48 FPS average, 60FPS Max), but out in the open country with no buildings or people around, I seem to get worse fps. Maybe it was a fluke, I need to test it more.

Anyone else getting odd graphical artifacting? When I first started playing it was fine but over the last few hours of playtime artifacts have started creeping in. Momentary flashes of pure blue, among other things. Seems to be especially prevalent in Lemoyne. It's rarer in gameplay but it's quite distracting during cutscenes.

Am I the only who got way worse performance after this update? When the settings got reset after the patch, most of the settings was set to ultra, and I went back to my old settings and now I'm getting 20 fps less on my 4790k and 1080ti.

[Armerius 341]

just did a small test and got about the same performance BUT...its me or there is WAYYY more smoke coming out of your gun when shooting something? (something that i love btw)

NVIDIA released their driver fix for RDR2. So it WAS also on them. Lol.

This Hotfix driver addresses the following:

• Red Dead Redemption 2 Vulkan: Stalling on some systems with 4-core and 6-core CPUs

[BlackScout 7,101]

Well... Time to do some extra testing.

Not what I meant. I was under the impression dirt accumulated quicker at higher frames, was wondering if this was actually the case and was fixed. Or just my imagination.

Why I can't see it in GeForce Experience? Do I have to install it manually?

Might still be propagating. Some sites like Guru3D get it first.

R* Support Update: 

RDR2 players with NVIDIA graphics cards and 4-core or 6-core CPUs should update to the GeForce Hotfix Driver Version 441.34 and remove any command line arguments.

Good! I'm downloading hotfix now.

[BlackScout 7,101]

Issue completely fixed! Good job NVIDIA and Rockstar.

See the domain? Do you need a virustotal scan as well?

You can trust the mods on GTAF, they aren't going to redirect you to viruses or anything of the kind. It's official.

Customer Help domain.

It's just shortened for the "knowledgebase" sub-domain. It's still very much Nvidia hosted and moderated.

Nvidia usually doesn't host these hotfixes on the main driver site - it'll get added in the next driver update.

I own the RS launcher version and mouse pointer is still visible in right part of screen

[D1rtyD1g1tal 25]

I haven't had any issues with the game , but while looking at the xml file to make sure snow glint and deep surface were set properly I noticed the line for async compute. Is there any reason for me to enable it using a i74790k? I've heard people mention that setting before but I don't really know what it does.

[Hellbendzor 1,360]

I had no issues whatsoever before, but I immediately noticed something had changed from this morning… Then I recalled it updated again this evening (over here)…

 

Once again my graphical settings are messed up again and I cant recall correctly what it was before...Tomorrow I'll fiddle around again, but this is something very very annoying...

 

It's just a feel over here, but my performance has dropped. I feel it's not as smooth as this morning… Some artifacts happening... Perhaps time to updated the drivers but in that department

I don't really trust Nvidia to keep their fingers off the performance of my 1080ti...  I can Always revert ofcourse, we'll see...

 

Overall, I understand these patches to cure issues, but plz stay away from changing custom graphical settings… Makes it damn hard to actually Judge if a patch improves the performance.

Don't like how it changes the settings based on how good/bad that customer's pc is. We can do that ourselves, starting from a generic standard medium setting...

[Koltos 66]

OMG just playing calm and the game crashed and started to download this update....

 

Hate it!

NVIDIA Hotfix drivers are usually only released on their Support site at first. Not the same as a full driver.

[Koltos 66]

Settings set on default again with the patch?

It doesn't do much if you have an NVIDIA card. Apparently it makes things a bit better on AMD, but not sure. I guess it's off for a reason.

Yeah, I've got a 1080

[md_rayan 158]

Man, they really made us, buyers on RGL, beta test this game before putting it on Steam lol.
