Physx Problem HELP

neblur · 4 Oct 2012 at 12:04

ok so basically im having a huge problem with my new gpu. Its the 660ti by asus *amazing card* but it was my 16th birthday yesterday and i though i would buy bl2 because it had physx and looked really cool. So i am having troubles enabling it when i launch it it says its running physx through my cpu! WTF i go to control panel and select my card and it says cpu why is this. also i don't think it is enables is there a way to check when i shoot cloth or something in bl2 it just stays there no effect or anything. Can someone for the love of god help me as im quite ****ed about this.

Have you gone to options > graphics options and actually turned Physx on? you need to put it to at least medium to see any effect.

It needs to be done through the game's launcher.

You know, I was gonna say "Have you tried scrolling?" but I thought it might have been incredibly patronising.

Looks like I was wrong.

This is easily done.. Batman Arkham and Arkham City both have a setup before you launch the game, but the box is too small and a small number of options you need to scroll down to.. As if rocksteady couldn't have made the dialogue box for its games setting a few cm bigger lol this was for Physx as well..

Easy mistake to make, and when you don't know, first thing you do - to the internet..!! Least he is sorted and now enjoying his game..!!

He's only young anyway, gotta give him some leeway for learning.
