Chris Lohman Posted May 15, 2003 Share Posted May 15, 2003 Starting with driver version 44.03; which you may download from http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?IO=winxp-2k_44.03 ;IronCAD is now listed in the OpenGL Application Settings. By choosing IronCAD; your graphics card settings are optimized for the use of IronCAD. Following is an image of the setting: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Twining Posted May 20, 2003 Share Posted May 20, 2003 So, for all us video-geeks out there, what exactly does this setting "optimize"? Mike T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Lohman Posted May 20, 2003 Author Share Posted May 20, 2003 Back depth buffer, antialiasing, and anisotropic filtering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Owens Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 Chris, What about the possibility of some IronCad optimized ATI drivers around here too! Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Twining Posted May 22, 2003 Share Posted May 22, 2003 Isn't "optimized ATI drivers" an oxymoron? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Owens Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 Yes, it probably is, but the last I heard IronCAD didn't recomment using IC with those 'gamer's video cards' either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Per-Arne Almeflo Posted May 23, 2003 Share Posted May 23, 2003 Didn't a lot of IC guys speak out for ATI Fire GL 8800 lately, while the Nvidia drivers had the handle bugs. Fire GL 8800's are no 'gamer's video cards' either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsulli Posted May 24, 2003 Share Posted May 24, 2003 Fire GL 8800, X1, Z1, and even Fire GL-2 cards work great with IronCAD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcraig Posted June 1, 2003 Share Posted June 1, 2003 Still had problems with a nvidia card after downloading drivers. Crazy graphics, crashes, etc. Solution was to turn off hardware accelleration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Per-Arne Almeflo Posted June 2, 2003 Share Posted June 2, 2003 That's not a solution, that's a workaround. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
