Forceware 77.56 32 & 64 bit

[Daishi]

I noticed you guys didnt have these in your downloads section been getting really good feedback on them in our forums the download links can be found on our main page here.

Some feedback:

"Fantastic driver - IQ is great (best DVD playback I've seen so far) and performance in games is up (FarCry went from 40.95fps w/ 77.76HD to 41.29). Aquamark scores are down from 77.76hd (49,700 vs 49,900) but well up from the 49,350 I was scoring with 77.76 stock. (You guys really worked the magic on 77.76hd biggrin.gif )."

"Cheers - they're well worth it for the IQ/performance. If you're reading, Daishi, please please XG 'em hyper.gif ('nough shameless grovelling)."

Seems like were probably going to XG both the 32 bit and 64 bit version depends on how many people like the driver so far so good...

Sounds cool, Ill upload them to the AOA files section and try them out for myself.

Thanks for the heads up mate.

mmm 2Mbit upload is the stuff of kings!

[Daishi]

no prob it looks like Tweaks R Us and AOA r the only ones to have this file so far... G3D 3dC all dont have it....

OK, I uploaded it to AOAFiles.

And if you want to download the 32 bit 77.56 driver on AOAfiles, Click Here


If any of you 64 bit guys are reading this, see how the 77.56 x64 rates compared to the 77.77XG for us.

So this will be the second 64 bit XG driver?

Possibly if we get enough people using the driver...

Well, we got over 1400 downloads of the 32-bit, and the 64-bit is the second highest 64-bit Forceware in downloads.

Is that enough? lol

Personally, I don't like going backwards unless a driver has exceptional qualities, and I don't see any in 77.56.

BUT, if people clammor enough . . .

Mate, I see the 77.56s to be much like the 72.xx driver series. They do the job, and have no major problems, but are just average. Doom 3 / OpenGL performance was below par, and HDR did not look that special in Far Cry.

I think looking forward is more important. If I were you, I would put my efforts into some new tweaks for the current driver set (77.76) and continue to develop your product. Like you did with the 77.62s, how you developed a new set of tweaks (the type 3) and went back and applied them to the 77.62s. Those T377.62s were some of your most popular drivers even though they had some age on them.

Perhaps have another little look into modding the actual driver files themselves like you tried with the initial release of the 77.76s (which I still use with no problems thanks to ReForce).

This lack of new hot drivers gives you time to rework and develop instead of rehashing old tweaks with new drivers that are not that good. Working further on 64bit tweaks would also be an idea.
