SLI still not working. GPU 2 shows 0 usage when in game. Also parts of mechs are missing when SLI is enabled.
Image here on FB page of missing limbs. FPS you are seeing is while in training grounds. In game actual FPS is about 30.

My second videocard still isn't running in game- shows 4-8% use, main card running 85-99% depending on whats happening.. I have SLI turned on in Nvidia control panel and it works on other games.

[JimLahey]

Same here. 340.52 WHQL drivers and bottom card is at 4-7%

[CrispRice]

SLI not working Driver 340.52 WHQL also 3D vision not working

[Besterino]

Same here, SLI not working. GeForce 337.88 Driver for 2x GTX680.

Also, DX11 mode still unplayable (Mech parts missing to a very large extent - DX9 no problems).

EDIT: EVGA PrecisionX shows only 1st GPU utilized at 99%, 2nd GPU idles at 4-8%.

EDIT2: Tried both DX9 and DX11 - SLI not working in both rendering paths.

Still broken with DX11. Still lose map and mech assets. mechs sometimes glow completely white as well. Some tearing as well.

SLI 480GTX
337.88 drivers.

Still looks fantastic over DX9 when it works right.

Is AMD Crossfire also supposed to work now? I'm getting 0% util on my 2nd HD7950 (in DX11, haven't tried DX9).

[Kuga ZA]

SLI is not working as intended.,

Here's a photo of my G19. Tested DX9 and DX11.

>Adds SLI to game
>No optimization
>DX11 still untouched for months

Please put some effort into FINISHING something before adding to the game, or at least quickly optimize and perfect before moving to other projects...

[Caballo]

SLI isn't working, either DX9 nor 11.

Even the SLI bar doesn't show onscreen.

I wonder whether there is any setting in the cfg files one has to activate. Niko, some info on how to get SLI activated would really be highly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

this was my thought as well because I have to assume....they tested this and saw that it was working.

Was talking about this with some others on a twitch stream. Maybe experimenting with different profiles since there is not officially one for MWO? Anyone tried like Crysis 3 or other profiles?

but that doesn't constitute "Fixed" by the devs. there has been a semi-workaround floating about using Crysis 3 profiles but it doens't always work.

having some ass-backwards way to use it means they didn't do anything.

[Besterino]

I just tinkered a bit with the driver settings: manually added MWOClient.exe in the 3D-Settings of the Geforce-Driver and if I enforce the alternate rendering 1 or 2, SLI does work, but FPS are worse than with only a single GPU. In both cases (alternative 1 or 2), both GPUs are utilized around 60ish %.

So that's not it (I hope). ;-)

[BINDLETORC]

SLI does not function for me. Have tried changing video settings from low through very high, DX11 and DX9.

This depresses me greatly. I was really looking forward to trying out SLI.

I hear ya, I was about to invest in another 760 if it worked well. Not anymore though, not unless I see some seriously large improvements.
