Brad Grier: NVIDIA has been a great partner throughout the development of Neverwinter Nights. We rolled the NVIDIA relationship from Baldur's Gate II right into Neverwinter Nights, so we were provided with a whole slew of GeForce4's very early on and worked closely with NVIDIA's developer relations group to ensure we were taking full advantage of the hardware. Bioware has had a long-standing relationship with NVIDIA and we've been able to achieve some amazing visual effects in our games that wouldn't be possible on anything other than NVIDIA hardware. The graphics effects in this game are just incredible. Be sure and check out the shiny bumpy water. And the combat effects, from spell effects to sparks flying off armor from a sword hit.

You better believe it! [img]smile.gif[/img] It's awesome! I Have the 'King' of the Geforce4 Family--a Geforce4 4600 128MMB Ram, and the effects are totally amazing. The Bump Mapping is clean and used well as well as the lighting.. The water is great too, but as long as it all meshes well, I am happy. The GUTS of the game and story is what is paramount in my mind, Graphics are second. But with NWN, BOTH are so perfect, it's flawless!

Get game. Get game NOW (Says [img]graemlins/choc.gif[/img] ) :D :D

You having fun with it Larry???
