how build nvidia driver from .RUN file artix ?

Greetings, can anyone teach how to install the driver on the video card, through the file?
   How do I stop the graphics session and successfully install the driver WITHOUT a network connection? and disable the standard driver open?
  perhaps this is not convenient, but, I need an offline method
I can download files from another OS and drop them into the artix directory
I have driver version 390 (latest, for my video card)

im new user in linux, "don't get mad at such stupid questions" (
just want use MAX PERFORMANCE with 3D, on closed-nvidia driver!

Hi.

Welcome to Artix! I'm relatively new as well. There is no need to use .RUN files to install the nvidia driver. If you look at the Artix Wiki, there is a section called repositories. This will tell you the commands you need to enable the Arch repositories which contain the nvidia drivers. Follow those directions and then in a terminal type
Code: [Select]
sudo pacman -Syu
. after that command completes, type  and follow the prompts and then reboot. That will install the latest Nvidia driver. I hope this helps!

So after all, I need a method - offline, without a network
therefore, it is necessary from the ".run" file

You don't need NVIDIA's run file. pacman is perfectly capable of offline installation. It's just pacman -U on a pkg file. If you have an existing artix box, you can download a package without installing it via pacman -Sw. All package cache is stored in /var/cache/pacman/pkg. Just copy the packages you want and move it where you need them.
