NVIDIA's 32-Bit PhysX Waves Goodbye with GeForce RTX 50 Series Ending 32-Bit CUDA Software Support

And now modders can fix it.

Since the release of PhysX SDK 4.0 in December 2018, NVIDIA PhysX has been available as open source under the BSD-3 license—with one key exception: the GPU simulation kernel source code was not inc...

But it sounds as if Nvidia will soon completely remove eveything from PhysX from their driver... so that with new drivers no Nvidia GPU at all (no matter if 1000,2000,3000,4000,5000 Series) can accelerate PhysX anmore... that would suck... i hope it won't be that way but will stay in a frozen support like it is today with Nvidia driver supporting it with an supporting old GPU or dedicated PhysX GPU... If it won't support it at all from soon on, that would make my GT 1030 PhysX GPU useless... And beside all that i hope that if modders find a way to solve this and make PhysX 32bit support multitrheaded working fast enought on CPU, that it'll be a one for all solution that works for all games and not an individual modding basis. Man Nvidia what are you doing. Don't get me wrong. Putting it open source is good but probably removing everything official sounds really bad. I'm really happy the way my system runs right now with perfect PhysX performance for every game. At least i could preserve the current driver to run older games if nvidia removes it all maybe soon.
