So the 1.04ff PhysX mod is like NVIDIA PhysX on an ATI card?

from what I gather, the mod is to enable ATI and Nvidia GPUs in one system... and then sets the Nvidia GPU as the card that will calculate PhysX. If you install the latest physx version on your Ati based R2 you can then launch PhysX games properly... but may not be able to use physx unless the game enables it differently.

FYI Download OpenAl from here: http://connect.creativelabs.com/deve...20Windows.aspx is no longer valid link. Creative seems to have packed it in, and only has a Asia server with relic items and only a couple new product offerings. No sign of this software is anywhere nearby the link (redirects back to asia.creative.com or 404).

Hey guys!

Not really necessary but I know there are some people that reinstall their machines a lot. There is a sweet utility called gamesave manager that scans your disk and finds any installed games and extracts the gamesave into a directory you specify (I have mine saved to a google drive). There is also yumi which is a multiboot program that allows multiple iso's to be imaged onto a flash drive (I have Windows7/8, Ubuntu, and UBCD5 on mine). The last one I would like to share is ninite which is a multiple applications installer that will install the latest version of all the apps you specify automatically without user interaction. In case you were wondering, I work IT and plenty of people ask me to mess with their machines all of the time. I'm not here to solicit all the software and they are all virus free, I promise.
