I’ve been using Nvidia Freestyle with Overwatch for a few months now, just to add a bit of sharpening. Today it is suddenly not working. I get the following Nvidia error:
“An error occurred. Please restart your game to use this feature.”
I updated my Nvidia graphics drivers and restarted my PC but no change.
GPU: GeForce GTX 1080
Driver version: 456.55
Overwatch is an officially supported game for Freestyle so I expect this to work. _https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/geforce-experience/games/#freestyle
EDIT: FYI this was a bug with loading the Nvidia overlay with Star Wars Squadrons, which broke Freestyle filters for all games.
I believe it has been fixed. It was acknowledged by Nvidia in one of their driver release notes.
