Mustang Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Haven't made an AMD driver post in a while, but this one is worth mentioning since this version fixes loading freezes that have plagued some cards (R9 380 for example) so now no more need for .dll injection with DCS World! :) https://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Windows+7+-+64 https://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Windows+8.1+-+64 https://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Windows+10+-+64 AMD Radeon Software Crimson 16.7.3 DRIVER BUILD 16.30.2311 SUPPORTED SYSTEMS Windows 10 32-bit/64-bit Windows 8.1 32-bit/64-bit Windows 7 32-bit/64-bit HIGHLIGHTS Performance Improvements: Rise of the Tomb Raider™ performance increase up to 10% versus Radeon Software Crimson Edition 16.7.2 on Radeon™ RX 480 graphics FIXED ISSUES Overwatch™ may experience an application crash on some Radeon™ RX 480 configurations when using AMD Crossfire mode. Vulkan™ information in the Radeon Settings software information tab may display an incorrect version. Radeon WattMan may retain settings of an overclock after it has failed. If you have failed an overclock with a system hang or reboot. Hitman™ may experience graphical corruption when the game is set to use DirectX®12 API and using zoom with weapons. Total War™: Warhammer may experience minor graphical corruption in some map textures on AMD Radeon R9 380. Flickering may be observed in Rise of the Tomb Raider™ on some AMD Crossfire configurations using the DirectX®11 API. Changing settings in Dragon Age Inquisition™ with the Mantle API may result in an application crash or driver recovery. DiRT™ Rally may experience flickering terrain in some races when the advanced blending option is enabled in the games settings page. Display may exhibit a minor flicker on Radeon RX 480 when Freesync is enabled on a games launch or exit. Shadows may experience rendering issues in DOTA2™ when using the Vulkan™ API. Textures may experience holes or gaps in DOOM™ when using the OpenGL API and three display AMD Eyefinity configurations. Need for Speed™ may experience flickering on some light sources in AMD Crossfire mode. Performing a task switch with two cloned displays during full screen gaming may cause flickering on the extended display. KNOWN ISSUES A few game titles may fail to launch or crash if the AMD Gaming Evolved overlay is enabled. A temporary workaround is to disable the AMD Gaming Evolved "In Game Overlay". DOTA2™ may experience an application hang when using the Vulkan™ API and changing resolution or game/quality settings. DiRT™ Rally may experience rain drop flickering in some races when using AMD Crossfire mode. Displays may fail to revert to previous configuration on exit when using a profiled application launched with Radeon Settings and "Launch with AMD Eyefinity" toggled on. Assassin's Creed® Syndicate may experience a game crash or hang when in game settings are set to high or greater. Low frame rate or stutter may be experienced Wolfenstein®: The Old Blood™ on Radeon™ RX 480. Radeon RX 480 graphics may experience minor flickering in SteamVR benchmark when using AMD Crossfire mode. Corruption may be experienced in Rise of the Tomb Raider using the DirectX®12 API on some Hybrid Graphics configurations when performing a task switch. Shader Cache may remain be enabled when set to "off" in Radeon Settings on some Hybrid Graphics configurations. Radeon RX 480 graphics may experience intermittent stuttering in The Division™ when high game settings are used and vsync is enabled. Battlefield™ 4 may experience intermittent crashes when using Mantle. As a work around users are suggested to switch to DirectX®11. Creating two or three display portrait Eyefinity groups in Radeon Settings "quick setup" and then clicking "arranging displays" may cause an error. Radeon Pro Duo may experience a black screen in Total War™: Warhammer with the games API set to DirectX®12 and V-Sync enabled. World of Tanks™ may experience stuttering after performing a task switch in AMD Crossfire mode. Rocket League™ may experience flickering when in AMD Crossfire mode. DOTA2™ may experience lower than expected performance when in AMD Crossfire mode. Ashes of the Singularity™ may experience an application crash with "crazy" in game settings and Multi-GPU enabled.

QuiGon Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Thanks for the heads up! I'm also suffering from that issue. Is that fix listed? Can't see anything like it in the changelog. Intel i7-12700K @ 8x5GHz+4x3.8GHz + 32 GB DDR5 RAM + Nvidia Geforce RTX 2080 (8 GB VRAM) + M.2 SSD + Windows 10 64Bit DCS Panavia Tornado (IDS) really needs to be a thing!

Mustang Posted July 29, 2016 Author Share Posted July 29, 2016 (edited) Thanks for the heads up! I'm also suffering from that issue. Is that fix listed? Can't see anything like it in the changelog. No it isn't listed, but test it for yourself and see - i removed both the 14.4 aticfx64.dll and atidxx64.dll from my bin folder of DCS World and it runs totally stable with this newer driver, and there also seems to be a few extra FPS gained too.

HiJack Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 My Radeon software is stuck at version 15.11. No matter what I do it is displaying 15.11 as Radeon Software version, crap. I'm considering going back to Nvidia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried using DDU? http://www.wagnardmobile.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=281&sid=2c66da27cbd9f3bf0ae8b216fc71419f my standard practice when updating driver is to uninstall the AMD software first then go into safe mode and use DDU to clean any traces of old driver, then i go ahead install the newer one.

Tailhook Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Crimson didn't want to update to stable release from the beta 16.7.2 for me. I downloaded full package and hit Upgrade upon launch, worked just fine.

HiJack Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 (edited) This build is not good. It repeatedly (loops) resets my displays (I have 3) when coming out of sleep. I rolled back using System restore and it works fine again. EDIT: Windows 7, AMD R9 390X EDIT: Bug reported to AMD.
