Nvidia Drivers 196.75
4th March, 2010, 18:49 DF-Mesmer Link Item

Nvidia have released a new set of ForceWare drivers, just in time for the BobLAN change freeze. A download link is available on our Games and Files page.

Claimed performance improvements include up to 30% in L4D on a single GPU. No mention of L4D2. This is over the previous WHQL version 196.21.

Update
Nvidia have pulled these drivers and recommend all users roll back to the previous version (Driver rollback help)


Federated Search
22nd February, 2010, 22:48 DF-Mesmer Link Item

Windows 7 allows you to include web sites in your local search, via Federated Search Connectors. DFC now supports Federated Search - simply download the connector and follow the r-click context menu prompts. IE can install it directly.

The result should be a Desert Fox Clan entry in the Favorites list in Windows Explorer, with search results that change as you type in your search query.

All the categories that have previously been included in the site's search feature will work, eg News, Match Reports, Humour etc.


New DFC Site Live
29th January, 2010, 21:49 DF-Mesmer Link Item

The DFC site has moved hosts. Thanks to }data{ we're now hosted in Europe, meaning quicker response times and the latest PHP and MySQL versions.

If anyone spots any problems with this or the Forums site, please let Mesmer know.


Nvidia Drivers 196.21
21st January, 2010, 09:00 DF-Mesmer Link Item

Nvidia have release new WHQL ForceWare drivers for all platforms. Changes include bug fixes, tweaks to specific games, and PhysX updates. There appear to be no major performance improvements in this version.

Links to the drivers for WinXP, Vista and Win7 can be found at the bottom of our Games and Drivers page.

Modern Warfare 2 Out Today
10th November, 2009, 09:52 DF-Mesmer Link Item

Today sees the release of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. This is the sequel to the hugely popular Call of Duty 4, and it's just a shame that it wasn't released a week earlier in time for the LAN. I'm sure it'll feature heavily at the Easter LAN tho :)


BobLAN 2009.2 Underway
6th November, 2009, 12:00 DF-Mesmer Link Item

The Autumn LAN is well underway, with a relatively painless setup evening, and late night Rockband mincage.

Follow events and view the live webcam on the BobLAN page.


CoD WaW 1.6 Released
21st September, 2009, 22:52 DF-Mesmer Link Item

Treyarch have released an update to Call of Duty: World at War. The patch includes 3 new multiplayer maps, gameplay changes and bug fixes.

For some bizarre reason, this is yet another incremental patch on all the other incremental patches, meaning you need to download well over 2GB of files to get a clean install fully patched. Why not combine them all together into a single point release?

Find links to this and previous patches on our CoD WaW page.


Battlefield 2 v1.50
8th September, 2009, 12:31 DF-Mesmer Link Item

EA have release a major patch for Battlefield 2. Here's Gamespot's quote on the release:

This is the long-awaited version 1.50 patch for Battlefield 2. In addition to making all content from both expansions free-to-play, it includes a number of bug fixes and gameplay tweaks.

Read the full description and download the patch via our BF2 page (2GB).


BobLAN 2009.2
28th August, 2009, 07:17 DF-Mesmer Link Item

The next gaming weekend will be Friday 6th to Sunday 8th November. In practice, it is likely to start with a setup night on the Thursday.

Keep up with events at the LAN on the revamped BobLAN page, which includes a live webcam feed, links to our Twitter page and Forums topic, plus a rough schedule of activity (to be completed as each day progresses).
