Mustang Posted July 1, 2007 Posted July 1, 2007 Cool, installed them on my X800XT a few hours ago, as with all the past releases, no issues but also no real enhancements to speak of....
Kuky Posted July 2, 2007 Posted July 2, 2007 And what do you get for your X2900? Come on, I wanna know... sometimes I'm thinking to upgrade from X1950XTX I have now to this X2900 (since it's not extremely expensive) but always keep thinking it's not very justifyable and that I should wait for next generation card from ATI. By the way I didn't bother trying these out... I find Catalyst 7.5 are just fine. Just can't be bothered reinstalling and installing these drivers all the time.

Prophet Posted July 2, 2007 Posted July 2, 2007 I get around 70FPS on high settings, FSAA disabled. I will get a screen for ya one of these days.
Kuky Posted July 2, 2007 Posted July 2, 2007 oooo... I like these drivers very much... by far the smoothest gameplay from any other Catalyst so far!

Kuky Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 Hm... now the bad thing is I get 2 CTD since I installed Catalyst 7.6 Once happened online and once offline... don't know if it's driver related... anyone experienced same?

Nope, no crashes or issues whatsoever so far, very stable driver set here on my system.....the crashes you have though, do you get an application error box on exit? if so, what do they point to?
Kuky Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 I get an error saying Lockon.exe has encountered some error, don't know exactly which one though as I didn't pay attention to that... I will next time if and when I get CTD and post PC specs: Windows 11 Home | Asus TUF Gaming B850-Plus WiFi | AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D + LC 360 AIO | MSI RTX 5090 LC 360 AIO | 55" Samsung Odyssey Gen 2 | 64GB PC5-48000 DDR5 | 1TB M2 SSD for OS | 2TB M2 SSD for DCS | NZXT C1000 Gold ATX 3.1 1000W | TM Cougar Throttle, Floor Mounted MongoosT-50 Grip on TM Cougar board, MFG Crosswind, Track IR
Kuky Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 By the way with these Catalyst 7.6 you still get CTD when full overcast is on...

hitman Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 Ive had quite a few CTD's allready, and a few bsods too. But guess what? Ive had more with the last cats and possibly even more than that with the cats before. I would really appreciate it if my drivers wouldnt stop working while Im in the middle of bombing Sochi and make it to where Kuky, Drac, or anyone else there cant land.
Mustang Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 By the way with these Catalyst 7.6 you still get CTD when full overcast is on... This only happens when Anistropic Filtering is forced 2x or higher, setting it to application preference stops the weather.dll CTD.
hitman Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 Im curious...how would starforce keep a game that doesnt require a cd from running? Are people really this dumb???? I swear if ppl would just lay off the oreos and lay ON the cheerios, ppl would me a lot smarter now. Remember kids, if you aint getting above an 85% in school, your failing. Pretty soon all youll need to get into college is a pencil and some paper.
hitman Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 Sometimes it cant be helped...Ive reformatted 2 times allready since march, this machine alone allready once since May when I got this... Tell me...do you have Windows Live OneCare???
hitman Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 Yeah. Sounds good. Ill go spool up in about 5 minutes...better than having to run all over town lookin for something to do. Give me 10 mikes.
Kuky Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 This only happens when Anistropic Filtering is forced 2x or higher, setting it to application preference stops the weather.dll CTD. Actually I just tried it and disabled AF and I still get CTD with overcast. I just tried and find setting water to medium doesn't cause CTD... good part is even with 4xFSAA and AF I still get 30FPS with full overcast with these drivers :D PC specs: Windows 11 Home | Asus TUF Gaming B850-Plus WiFi | AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D + LC 360 AIO | MSI RTX 5090 LC 360 AIO | 55" Samsung Odyssey Gen 2 | 64GB PC5-48000 DDR5 | 1TB M2 SSD for OS | 2TB M2 SSD for DCS | NZXT C1000 Gold ATX 3.1 1000W | TM Cougar Throttle, Floor Mounted MongoosT-50 Grip on TM Cougar board, MFG Crosswind, Track IR
