Fixed Issues in Version 536.67 WHQL
Fixed Gaming Bugs
- Applying GeForce Experience Freestyle filters cause games to crash
Fixed General Bugs
- Increase in DPC latency observed in Latencymon for Ampere-based GPUs

Open Issues in Version 536.67 WHQL
- [Halo Infinite] Significant performance drop is observed on Maxwell-based GPUs
- [Battlefield 2042] Game stability can decrease when applying GeForce Experience Freestyle filters.
- This driver implements a fix for creative application stability issues seen during heavy memory usage. We’ve observed some situations where this fix has resulted in performance degradation when running Stable Diffusion and DaVinci Resolve. This will be addressed in an upcoming driver release.

Sure thing. It's weird how Nvidia changed the language of the issue. Now it's "game stability can decrease". I did test it with a number of different filters and they all seem to crash the game once spawned into a match. It is possible to add some sharpening via the Nvidia control panel setting, image scaling. I use 40% and it looks less blurry.

Acheté day one, joué 40h puis abandonné. Je le relance aujourd'hui et je rencontre le même problème que vous avec les filtres, j'utilise aussi affiner sur gforce experience pour rendre plus net pfff... 

I have a fix for the problem of filters crashing 2042. it's a simple fix, but I'm going to detail exactly how I figured this out. Use this method at your own risk, but the worst that could happen is that you would need to re-install the Nvidia driver.

I noticed that both BF 2042 and the Dead Space remake have the same problem with filters, that occurred at the same time. Someone posted a fix for the problem with Dead Space on steam. The fix is to import settings using Nvidia Profile Inspector.

What I did to fix 2042 is import that profile for 2042, and for a couple of weeks now there's been no crashes and the filters work fine. I've attached the profile.

What you'll want to do is get the profile import tool from github:  https://github.com/Orbmu2k/nvidiaProfileInspector/releases/tag/2.4.0.4

Save the modified profile attached to my post.

Change the extension of the file name from "txt" to "nip".

Run Nvidia Profile Inspector, and in the 'profile' box, select Battlefield 2042.

To the right of that profile box, look for the green button that says "import user defined profiles" when you hover over it and select "import profile(s)".

Select the modified profile and and a dialog box will confirm it was imported. Then, in the upper right hand corner, click "apply changes", and you're good to go.
