Discussion Newest update from the GFN team regarding Steam Workshop mods (a workaround for specific titles)

104 Upvotes

We heard your feedback that the recent Steam update affected your ability to use Steam Workshop mods on GeForce NOW. To support the latest Steam app updates and help ensure supported games continue to run as expected in the cloud, we temporarily disabled the ability to download Steam Workshop mods during a game session.

While Steam Workshop mods are still not officially supported on GeForce NOW, starting today, we’ve enabled a temporary workaround for select games that may have been affected.

This temporary workaround changes the launch experience for all players of these games on GeForce NOW, even if they do not use Steam Workshop mods:

After selecting PLAY in the GeForce NOW app, members will arrive at the game’s Steam library page and will need to select PLAY in Steam to launch the game.

More details, including the list of supported games and instructions, will be available in a KBA posted shortly at the following link: https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5166/

Discussion I'm back at GFN after 6 years! Ultimate tier and it's amazing

7 Upvotes

Used this service to play Cyberpunk back in 2020 and later Shadow PC because streaming quality wasn't that good in GFN but looked like local in Shadow, then I got a 3060 Laptop and quitted cloud gaming, it was great Switch emulators, VR, Mods, etc.

But after the DLSS 5 posts from yesterday made me regain my interest in gaming, I was fine with my 3060 laptop docked to my OLED TV at 1440p or even 4k with FSR frame gen, but I wanted to get a 5070ti laptop just due DLSS 5 but I decided at this point I rather wait for the 6000's GPU series as I expect DLSS 5 will be made for that chips in mind.

So I'm back at GFN, and I'm surprised how good it's now! can't wait till It get DLSS 5 support as that my main interest as I'm really interested in replaying Witcher 3 with DLSS 5

Discussion DLSS 5 on GeForce NOW Performance by ABYA Brazil

9 Upvotes

Good evening, everyone!

I have a question about DLSS 5. I’m currently using the GeForce NOW Performance plan in Brazil, which is operated by ABYA, and I was wondering if there is any information about DLSS 5 coming to this plan.

NVIDIA has confirmed that DLSS 5 will be available on GeForce NOW, but I haven’t been able to find any specific information regarding ABYA Brazil or the Performance plan.

Has ABYA confirmed whether DLSS 5 will be available on the Performance plan? Or is there any estimate of when it might be available?

If anyone has any information or an official announcement from ABYA or NVIDIA about this, I’d really appreciate it!

Opinion Impressed by the paid tier, gg Nvidia

10 Upvotes

Just giving my 2 cents about the service, not affiliated nor sponsored or whatever, just my own opinion.

I used to play a lot a few years ago, always having the top spec rig. But over the years I played less and less (life you know). I ended up reselling all my PC and gaming gear.

Fast forward today, I now have a MacBook Pro, which, even if it is definitely capable of gaming with today's chips, it still can't play games with anti cheats softwares (battlefield, etc).

I tried out of curiosity the free tier, and it was awful, the "60" FPS felt like a powerpoint, with horrible mouse input latency. But maybe I'm a 120hz princess.

After lurking around, I told myself "f-it let's buy a month of the Ultimate plan" and see for real what "120fps" and 100mbps feel like, without much hope.

Well, I spent a lot of time tweaking my wifi router to not have any packet drop or latency spike, and now I'm blown away, I can play some huge titles, start the game in seconds, maxed out the graphics, bitrate and resolution, and it plays great. I still feel like it doesn't quite feel like 120fps and there is some input latency, but it's fine for non-competitive gaming and the picture quality is great too.

I find the ultimate plan quite expensive and there is some marketplaces missing (rockstar games I'm talking about you). I guess I won't buy it each month, but for someone who wants to play from time to time (or someone that doesn't have a spare organ to sell for buying today's computer parts), it's a good service.

Thanks Nvidia

Advice Looking for the cheapest possible PC setup for GeForce NOW

18 Upvotes

Hi!

I'm looking to buy a very simple and inexpensive PC mainly for gaming through NVIDIA GeForce NOW. I don't need the PC itself to run demanding games, since I'll be streaming them through GeForce NOW.

My main goal is to spend as little as possible while still getting a decent experience. I'm starting from scratch, so I would need the whole setup:

PC or mini PC

Monitor

Keyboard (maybe a cute one with lights?🥺)

Mouse

Any other essentials

I'm currently considering a mini PC with something like a Ryzen 5 7430U, 16 GB RAM and a 512 GB SSD, but I'm wondering whether that's actually overkill for GeForce NOW or if there are cheaper options that would make more sense.

I'm also wondering how much I can save on the monitor. Would a cheap 21–22" 1080p 60/75/100 Hz monitor be perfectly fine for GeForce NOW, or is there a reason to spend more?

(Also: I live in Italy, so prices and availability here can be different from the US)

I'd especially appreciate recommendations for specific models and good places to buy them, rather than just general specs.

Thanks and sorry for my english!

How is the mod usage process working? Were all games affected by the change, or just some? It had been a while since I used GFN and I wasn't aware of the changes.

Bug Help please

Yesterday I had a problem. I play Overwatch on GeForce Now and out of nowhere my controller started being detected as a mouse. I've already tried everything I can think of, including uninstalling,I updated my PC, changed the Steam settings, updated my controller drivers, and it's still the same :( Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Discussion What is the real probability of having FromSoftware/Sony/Rockstar Studios by YE 2027?

7 Upvotes

I know some of them have their own plans of cloud infra and negative impact on their ecosystem. But, given the expansion of GFN servers and unmatched quality, i think within next year the size of gamers on it would be highest and at one point wouldn't these Game Studio must ask whether to just opt in and get these gamers access to their IP with best experience or indulge in billions of dollars of capex to build their own servers and ultimately pay Nvidia or AMD.

Questions / Tech Support How noticeable is Perfomance from Ultimate if I don't play very demanding games?

6 Upvotes

Hi guys, I play mostly Paradox games that can't run in my laptop (Vic 3 and Eu5) so I was wondering, is it worth to go Ultimate? Or is it more aimed towards people who play high end multiplayer games? Is the FPS and loading times the only noticeable difference?

Questions / Tech Support Input delay has gotten so bad out of nowhere for me

Post image
Upvotes

I am trying to play siege at my dads place and oh my god the input delay is awful. I used to have my ping on 1ms as well, but after purchasing my subsription (or rather, around the time) it suddendly spiked up to 9ms and no matter what setting or change i try, it isnt nudging.

How can I fix this? The input delay is damn near half a second and it defiently used to not be like this.

Update 1: Uuuh i did some testing and turns out the input delay is specifically for my mouse and touchpad. Like, when i left click (again, mouse and touchpad) it takes half a second to register, but when i press my keyboard buttons it registers instnatly. Wtf
