Nvidia GTX Pascal-era GPUs are now running on Windows XP thanks to modders

Modder SupraGSX has created an unofficial Nvidia driver called ForceWare 382.69 for Windows XP, enabling compatibility with Nvidia's Pascal graphics cards, including the Titan Xp. This driver is based on Nvidia's GeForce 368.69 driver and is designed for 32-bit versions of Windows XP, allowing the use of modern graphics cards like the GTX 1080 Ti and Titan X. It also supports contemporary display standards such as DisplayPort 1.4 HBR3 and HDMI 2.0, with successful tests reported on high-refresh-rate monitors. The driver supports Direct3D 9 and OpenGL, but users have reported inconsistent performance and issues with certain functionalities. ForceWare 382.69 is available on GitHub, but installing unofficial drivers carries risks, especially for valuable hardware. Windows XP is not suitable for modern internet use and lacks support for contemporary software.

Modder brings Nvidia Pascal GPU support to Windows XP 32-bit

Tech enthusiast SupraGSX has introduced support for Nvidia's Pascal-era graphics cards (10-series and Quadro P2000-P6000) on the Windows XP 32-bit platform through a custom driver called ForceWare 382.69. This driver combines legacy and modern technology, integrating firmware from Quadro 376.84 and supporting features from GeForce 378.78 designed for Windows 7. Supported graphics cards include GeForce GTX 970, 980, 980 Ti, GTX TITAN X, GTX 1060, 1070, 1070 Ti, 1080, 1080 Ti, GTX 1050 Ti (experimental), Quadro M4000, M5000, M6000, P2000, P2200, P4000, P5000, P6000, and additional OEM variants of GTX 950 and GTX 960. The driver also supports DisplayPort HBR2 and HBR3, ensuring HDMI 2.0 identification and improved HDMI/DVI handling. User feedback has been positive, particularly for ultrawide screens at high refresh rates. The project offers an installer package for download, and modders can access build instructions for modifications. There are inquiries about Windows XP 64-bit support, but a previous fork has been removed, with binaries still available on Mega. Users are advised to proceed with caution due to the unofficial nature of the drivers.

One of the most popular Total War: Warhammer 3 mods was ‘deliberately corrupted’ by its creator to sabotage AI-made copies

The Lords of the End Times expansion for Total War: Warhammer 3 has made the SFO Grimhammer 3 mod incompatible with the latest game version, prompting the creators to work on a fix. Some individuals have been reworking the original mod using AI coding and reuploading it, leading to frustration within the modding community. The creator of SFO Grimhammer 3 has corrupted the mod to prevent unauthorized uploads and has threatened to make it private if the situation escalates. They have stated their opposition to the appropriation of their work for AI purposes and emphasized that their mods will remain free. A functional version of SFO: Grimhammer III for game version 8.1.1 has been restored on Steam in response to community feedback. The creator hopes to raise awareness about the issues caused by AI-generated modifications and advocates for AI to be a supportive tool rather than a replacement for individual creativity in modding.
