I just downloaded the demo, and am playing it on my Gtx 480 card, with an Optoma HD 67 720p projector.

I cant change resolution in the game menu! It jumps back to 1080p 60Hz, and my proj cant do 3d beyond 1280X720 120Hz.

It just says "to make changes to physx you have to restart the game" and I do, and the same happens over and over.

Help?

The newly posted physx drivers appear to have fixed my random dipping framerates and my GPU usage is now a constant 80%+ in SLI with APEX set to high. My framerates rarely dropped below 40 now and are usually in the 50's with 3D Vision enabled.

It looks cool. My good impressions from the first Mafia along with this one being 3D-vision ready is enough to the tip the scales for a buy.

I just downloaded the 3D Vision v258.96 driver that Andrew posted and that alone fixed the silhouettes issue (thank you!)

What I'm more surprised about is the performance, have a look at these 2 screenshots, first one is the benchmark results with physx set to high and 3D vision on (AA off but everything else max) and the second pic is the result with 3D vision off (with physx still set to high)

Considering my GFX card its done well! the average is a bit of a lie because it was the smoke from the fire that killed it, was on an average of 30fps before that bit. I hope I will get this same sort of performance with the full retail game! its a shame convergence is locked and there is quite a bit of ghosting (but it is a new game, give them time /smile2.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':))' />

Oh I also did the Physx fix, it was unplayable before that.

Even though both pics are taken with the 3D image capture, only the first test actually ran in 3D, i just turned it on for the 2nd one to get the pic. Really looking forward to this game now :D:D
