Feels shady downloading Nvidia drivers from a Nexusmod page.
Here's a link to the official Nvidia Driver with the same version number listed in this mod: https://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/198400/en-us/
It's.. very old tho. Mine are more up-to-date but this mod still warns about drivers when trying to launch.
That I can tell it doesn't support Radeon RX 580 Series, since trying to click play by both shortcut and in steam the game doesn't load and steam stops trying to load within 30 seconds. The author only stated Rx570 version that isn't supported but so far it's Rx580 also since the game doesn't launch at all.
After f*#@ing weeks im finally playing without stutters, f*#@ DX12 and windows.
IF YOU HAVE CRASH BEFORE THE SHADER COMPILATION, OR THE GAME DOESNT EVEN OPEN:
1 -Download driver 528.50 (or under) from the files section 2 -Remove with DDU your latest driver 3 -Install 528.50, dont start the game yet 4 -At in: \AppData\Local\Hogwarts Legacy\Saved\ Remove all folders and pc_info.json if exists, but leave SaveGames folder there. 5 -In SaveGames folder, delete this file:
SavedUserOptions.sav
6 -Open C:\ProgramData (hidden folder at C:\) 7 -Delete HogwartsLegacy folder 8 -Follow instructions from the main page to Install vulkan files. 9 -Now you can play the game without stutters, DLSS and RT disabled.
OBS: Check or apply Shader Cache 10gb or above that in your Nvidia Control panel. For amd cards: No idea lmao.
Not working for me, when I try to start the game it brings up a warning window telling me that it is not compatible with my driver's version. No log file found on the x64 folder either so I just can't figure out what is going wrong.
My specs:
Core I9 12900K DDR4 3200Mhz 80Gb ASUS ROG STRIX RTX 3080 TI (12Gb) Windows 10 PRO
After two days of torment with this mod, so that it would work, I reinstalled Windows on 11 pro, re-performed the operation on a clean game, and after that I decided to roll back the nvidia drivers that are listed below the main file, after that it worked. The system is an amd Ryzen 5900x processor, an rtx 2070 graphics card. Later I will add how this mod works, and whether I suffered for two days in vain. I apologize for the English, through the translator
I have a MSI GeForce GTX 1050 Ti GAMING X 4G and this works for me. my stature issue kinda fixed, it makes game load faster and FPS increased from around 60 to 75. however after I tested it for 2 hours, after it started to rain text was corrupted and they became white vertical retangles, textures became pitch black, hairs of people kinda disappeared and overall physics stopped existing and things started to move on their own while FPS dropped to 1 so I did alt+F4 the game
