Mustang Posted April 3, 2009 Author Posted April 3, 2009 9.4 Beta Catalyst 8.60-090316 Vista/XP available here http://www.rage3d.com/board/showthread.php?t=33943385
Maximus_G Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 With cat 9.3 i've just measured about 10% FPS increase over cat 8.12 in DCS:BS.
JG14_Smil Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 I tried the 9.4 beta with my 4870x2. Was using 8.12. Launcher error with advanced cat AI is still there. Screen tearing without the D3D vsync overrider is still there. Possibly I get better minimum fps, but will have to test further. Max fps was a bit less.
Washer UK Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 Hi JG14 Smil Any chance of a heads up on " D3D vsync overrider"... Never heard of this app but I do get screen tearing.. Thanks Wash 1 Q6600 3.2Ghz, 4G DDR2 1066, ATI 4870, x52, TrackIR 4, Vista 64
Mustang Posted April 3, 2009 Author Posted April 3, 2009 (edited) Hi JG14 Smil Any chance of a heads up on " D3D vsync overrider"... Never heard of this app but I do get screen tearing.. Thanks Wash I use D3DOverrider thats included with RivaTuner to enforce v-sync (this is with WinXP though) edit: D3DOverrider can force Triple Buffering too, *very* beneficial for FPS in DCS or LO ;) Edited April 4, 2009 by Mustang
Washer UK Posted April 4, 2009 Posted April 4, 2009 Yeh, I downloaded it and my tearing is gone..... :D And thanks to the poster of 9.4, didnt do didley for DCS but the micro stutter from Far Cry 2 is gone hehe Q6600 3.2Ghz, 4G DDR2 1066, ATI 4870, x52, TrackIR 4, Vista 64

Silent Warrior Posted April 8, 2009 Posted April 8, 2009 Well, 9.3 had better sort out the hangs and crashes I get under OpenGL on my X1900, then...
