Armed with the knowledge above, I've come up with a solution to the issue for those willing to sacrifice RTX 40 features to get working HDR (a fine trade off imo, but it's situational).
- Browse to the Need for Speed Unbound directory (eg C:\Program Files\EA Games\Need for Speed Unbound)
- Rename nvngx_dlssg.dll to anything else (eg nvngx_dlssg.dllX)
...this will have the effect of disabling the RTX 40 features, and also fix HDR. Of course renaming the file back will return the game to its original state.
Enjoy a much prettier looking game 40 Series fam 🙂
EDIT: just to preempt the question, the DLSS upscaling and Reflex features should still work fine with this change,
Yep this fixed it for me! Great job!!!
