SOFTWARE & DRIVERS

Nvidia releases a GPU hotfix to address stalling in Red Dead Redemption 2
https://www.pcgamer.com/nvidia-releases-a-gpu-hotfix-to-address-stalling-in-red-dead-redemption-2/
In response to complaints of Red Dead Redemption 2 hanging on some systems equipped with a GeForce graphics card, Nvidia has come out with a hotfix to address the issue. In addition, it is supposed to fix a crashing bug when playing Shadow of the Tomb Raider as well.
Nvidia's GeForce hotfix driver version 441.34 is based on the "Game Ready" 441.20 WHQL driver that I wrote about last week. The release notes for that driver mentioned a few RDR2 quirks that were supposed to be fixed, but apparently there are some lingering bugs.

Modder D?nt? has released a new mod for S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat. This mod, which weights around 4.5GB in size, aims to overhaul the game’s graphics by introducing Ultra HD Textures. As such, we suggest downloading it if you are planning to replay this STALKER title.
Alongside the new HD textures, this mod brings new models for characters, monsters, weapons, hands and items. Furthermore, it packs enhanced weather, nature, structures, particles, shaders and post process effects.
The modder also claims that this mod brings a 64-bit engine to the game. I don’t know how efficient this new executable is, or whether there are any meaning performance differences between this and the vanilla executable.
>> This mod is available from ModDB:
