Hot off the heels of Gamescom, NVIDIA has released a new Game Ready driver, featuring support for Star Wars Zero Company, Hell Let Loose: Vietnam, and Resonance: A Plague Tale Legacy. NVIDIA announced the update today in a blog post, version 616.56, that also features 7 fixed gaming bugs for gaming and non-gaming-related issues.
DOOM: The Dark Ages and Indiana Jones and the Great Circle received a fix for a problem where both games' frame rates may exceed V-Sync when using DLSS Frame Generation on its 3x setting or higher. A Texture flickering bug was fixed in Outer Worlds that specifically occurs after updating from R595 to R610 drivers (likely without clean installing drivers).
For non-gaming-related fixes, NVIDIA fixed an issue with ASUS' Armory Crate where the app's "GameVisual" color profiles were not getting applied when using R590 drivers. Chief Architect received a driver crash fix on RTX 40 series GPUs using driver 610.47, and Claude Desktop received a fix for incorrectly being identified as a 3D app in the GPU driver. Tycho Tracker received a fix for being unable to create individual OpenCL buffers greater than 2GB, and finally, driver 616.56 fixes an issue where driver crashes can occur with 32-bit DirectX 12 apps.
