Splinter Cell Conviction

[vulcanproject]

No SLI support, far as i can tell. Hardly a surprise given ubisofts reputation for Pc port bodges (Even the 360 controller option does not work properly, its totally borked for me) But has anyone got a profile for it worked out? Not sure if it can be enabled

There was a zero-day patch 1.01, but it was pulled. The changelog is floating around the web and mentions added support for multi-GPU setups, CrossFireX and SLI, most likely.

But no, I haven't had any luck in manually creating a profile. GTX 280 SLI here.

I have managed to get SLI working with the help of nHancer. I created a new profile pointing to a copy of conviction_game.EXE. The settings i used only apply to the 'SLI Mode' tab which should be set to 'Alternate Frame Rendering' - with compatability flag options of 20, 22, 25 (or the Hex value is 2500001). It works OK but there is some flickering on certain in-game text. I have 2x8800GT and the frame rate doubled with this profile.

You can enable the Xbox 360 controller by using the ACII fix

Works on my sli 260's, getting 60+ fps with everything maxed @ 1920 x 1080
same flicker issue with in game text, im sure a new driver release will more then likey have a offical support for sli
thanks for the tip game is now playable, cant stand low fps in any game gives me headaches
if it dont run 60fps i dont play it

Yes, that works, despite the glitches. Thanks a lot. I do hope that future drivers and patches will improve performance and fix these glitches, but this will do for now.

Thanx a lot !
Works here (text flickers but not a real problem)

Great to see that it's been useful. I've found that adding compatibility flag option 18 (the new Hex value for all option flags is 2540001) improves stability and performance, but not the text flicker - which I don't find to be a big deal anyway.

Like the rest of you I anticipate there will be proper driver support and profile for this game (which is why I created a copy of conviction_game.EXE for nHancer, so there would be no contention over the profile for the original EXE). However, I think there will have to be a patch first - but by that time I will probably be finished with this game.

Well, you don't have to worry about the game's executable. If nVidia introduces their own profile, nHancer will give you the option to use your own profile (if it's using the same executable of course) and then you can still deny this, so nVidia's own profile is used...
