Elite unplayable on DK2 after the last patch

keem85 · Jan 28, 2015

The head tracking is now massively delayed (like in pjcars if anyone has tried it) after the new update.. It actually works better in borderless window, but that isn't good enough either..
I was wondering if there are anyone else having the same issue as me? Both my monitors are set to 75hz and I don't know what the cause of framedrop is

Haven't noticed any difference myself. Check you haven't loosened a lead to the camera?

I've been playing a fair amount today and not noticed a problem, although pretty sure it reset the shadows to high as I had to set that to medium again.

Might be something to do with your graphics drivers. I also have a DK2, I admit however I don't use it because my room is a ****hole and I can't be bothered with the massive hassle...not to mention I wanna watch stuff on the 2nd monitor while I'm playing due to the countless boring ass journeys...but just FYI, I had to downgrade my graphics drivers to get the DK2 working properly and I know recently there was an NVidia update.

Seems to be fine on my PC.

Are you using Direct Mode or Extended Mode?

I'm using extended mode as before. Never had this problem. I have the latest nvidia driver aswell.. I have no idea where the stuttering is coming from.. works fine with other apps

Works fine here, been playing all day, only logged out for the update.

I've had some weird behaviour with the DK2. Had to restart the machine before now to get the services to respond correctly. Try checking out forced options in the NVidia control panel under 3D settings too. Try resetting the ED graphics config. Has everyone else updated to the latest NVidia drivers or are they still on the old ones? Etc.

Good tip. I reverted two version backwards, and now it's working fine again. Which is weird, because before the Elite update was rolled out, the new nvidia drivers worked just fine
