For GTX 980 these should be 368.69 WHQL. It is well known that nvidia drivers newer than 359.06 has a lot of issues. Prior to this update, I rollback from the newest driver to 359.06 because I got display driver crashes to black screen way too frequent when playing warframe. (and happens to warframe only). Since you said Dev team cannot reproduce black screen issue so you recommended us to try to DISABLE PhysX effect. https://forums.warframe.com/topic/617207-warframe-crashes-to-black-screen-forced-to-shutdown So is that a proven PhysX issue and has been fixed? Or should I keep testing without PhysX effect on? Edited July 8, 2016 by aerosoul1337 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[DE]Linkski Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 (edited) If you hover over the "Nvidia PhysX Effects" button you should see a message telling you why it cannot be enabled. Here is an example: Edited July 8, 2016 by [DE]Dmitri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaiux Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 As of the hotfix my PhysX was disabled. I have a brand new MSI GS40 with a 970M running the latest drivers. When hovered over it says "Could not enable Nvidia hardware acceleration". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eudaimonium Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 (edited) Same thing here, on a mobile GTX 860M (newer chip, the same one as in 950M). I could enable it before this update, however I'm under the impression that there currently are no PhysX effects in the game anyway, no? With option enabled/disabled I saw no difference in my game somewhere back since Inaros update IIRC - before that, you could not miss PhysX particles on dead Infested and Capture targets, but somewhere after that, not sure when exactly, I just noticed there were no effects in the game. Or was it just me? Edited July 9, 2016 by Eudaimonium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe you may be referring to this Steam thread mentioning exact same thing: https://steamcommunity.com/app/230410/discussions/0/541907867762938853/ This mentions the following: Quote physx was replaced with a proprietary particle system DE calls "Flow" it's not nearly as shiny but it is what it is. They have mentioned adding the option to use the old effects back in at some point but that was quite a while ago and they havn't mentioned it since. However that post was way back in October 2015 (before I started playing I believe), and I do distinctly remember the Capture Targets, Infested and Gunners/Bombers groundslam PhysX effects being beautiful, right up until somewhere around Inaros update. Not too long before Inaros update, I faintly recall seeing some hotfix mentioning how they've adopted a newer PhysX library for better performance and that I saw I no longer had large-ish FPS drops when nuking a hallway full of infested with a Tigris. Which was great. Now it's gone. No idea why. Edited July 10, 2016 by Eudaimonium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which was great. Now it's gone. No idea why. That would be it. I have a beautiful new rig and should not have a problem running the Physx. Just to add in, I have tried switching from cpu in the Nvidia Control panel, and still it will not function. Edit* I also remember running the Physx for Warframe on my old rig years ago, and it was stunning. I sure do miss it.

Did it make any in-game difference to you? Or am I the only one who's PhysX effects just simply stopped showing up a while back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graphically it was beautiful, stunning, but it did not impact performance. 3. Mine just stopped working a while back too.

I recently checked by running Warframe on my old laptop that worked prior to updates. Yeah I also remember it being beautiful a bit back, however then the PhysX effects just disappeared from the game from me while I could still normally select the PhysX option ON/OFF in the options (It wasn't grayed out, but it also apparently didn't make any in game difference). That's what I'm trying to find out, was it like that for all people or just me. EDIT - And finally, can anybody turn on PhysX after SotR update, and does it produce ingame difference?

I used to be able to enable it all the time... till Specters of the Rail update. I remember it clearly. Because I was testing some crash issue that DE staff asked me to try to disable it and if it makes any difference.

StahlEngel Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Make sure you set Physx to GPU in the nvidia control, and then you can select it in game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to [DE]Dmitri's reply, we should be able to enable Nvidia PhysX as long as the driver is newer than 355.60. But I can't enable it with 359.06.
