SWAT 3 General Discussion / Re: Faulty Nvidia Drivers with Swat 3

Just a quick update to this thread.

Both Nvidia and Microsoft seemed to have dumped support for old games like this.   Your best option is to use apps like dgVoodoo.

SWAT 3 General Discussion / Faulty Nvidia Drivers with Swat 3

« on: September 21, 2015, 09:05:54 PM »

After a lot of testing I have discovered that the lastest Nvidia drivers are incompatible with Swat 3 on Windows 7. If you revert back to version 353.62 you will once again get good frame rates. If you play Metal Gear Solid 5, Mad Max, Ashes of Singularity, or Killing Floor 2 you won't want to revert since they contain "game-ready" drivers.

Breakdown of recent drivers:

355.98 Sept 22, 2015 - bad frame rate
355.82 August 31, 2015 - bad frame rate
355.60 August 13, 2015 - bad frame rate
353.62 July 29, 2015 - good frame rate
353.30 June 22, 2015 - good frame rate
353.06 May 31, 2015 - good frame rate
352.86 May 18, 2015 - good frame rate
350.12 April 13, 2015 - good frame rate
347.88 March 17, 2015 - good frame rate
347.52 February 10, 2015 - good frame rate
347.25 January 22, 2015 - good frame rate
347.09 - bad frame rate
344.75 - bad frame rate
344.48 - bad frame rate
344.11 - good frame rate

You can help us to get a fixed driver by posting in the Nvida forums or by filling out a short bug report:

Takedown Red Sabre General Discussion / Takedown still buggy?

« on: August 29, 2015, 01:34:24 PM »

Have they improved Takedown since the original reviews that I have read?

I see that the game is on sale for $1 at the Humble Bundle store's end of summer sale.  Is the game worth picking up or is the AI as dreadful as the reviews say.

PS:  if you act quickly they are giving away Stealth Inc 2 on Steam for free until August 31.
