Nvidia GTX: Update drivers to 378.66

Postby Mah-Dry-Bread » Sun Jan 29, 2017 10:43 pm

Hey everyone, the new graphics drivers for the Nvidia GTX 980 graphics card causes Haven & Hearth to stop loading most objects properly. If you've already updated, you may need to roll back your drivers. Just giving a warning to everyone before the forum is flooded with people wondering why the game won't work anymore.

Have a nice day!

moderator note: New information at end of thread, looks like newest drivers are working.

Already known. It's all Nvidia cards that use the new drivers. From what I'm gathering, it's all the 9xx and newer cards. Might be the 8xx, too.

Don't update, or if you do get an update, do a rollback or uninstall the current drivers and download an older package. Hopefully a fix will be posted soon.

So many people are probably going to update, be unable to play, and will panic trying to figure out the issue. I hope they see a thread about this before they waste too much time. Such an annoying issue to run into.

Some major issues in some other games as well.
This does not only apply to gtx 980.
But instead to pretty much all of nvidias gpus at least all from 10-, 900-, 700, 600-, 500-, 400- series.
Hopefully they will fix it soon.

Guess the title should probably be updated.

Also went ahead and stickied this for a couple of weeks. Things should be sorted in that time.
