Is the bug fixed in 6.1? Can't see any mention about it in here: http://www.guru3d.com/newsitem.php?id=3521

I've never even tried 5.12 nor 5.13 because I have oldish 9500 Pro so I don't care to install every new driver but I'm just curious.

EDIT: doh, should have read that previous page.

Cat 6.1 is out.

Thanx!

Just to let you guys know, the Cat 6.1 doesn't solve our problem. I know it was said probably in the 6.2, but I couldn't restrain myself from trying them :P


edit: spelling

Arse, come on ATI at the very least please, please release a hotfix

Dan,

I couldn't resist trying them either. I did some testing with LFS Bench and 5.11/6.1 gave me identical results. Not a big surprise though since I never had any slowdowns to begin with. So it's okay to install these if you never had any probs like me.

Dan,

Working on it, but can't promise it...

NB: In fact, I can't get them to release a hotfix. Cat 6.2 will be out in roughly 2.5 weeks, and should fix this.

Go ATI, go!

i have R9550 @ 502/605MHZ, flashed to 9600xt, MSI K7N2 Delta, CPU AThlonXP 2400+ @ 2310Mhz and i did'n notice any change between 5.11, 5.12,5.13 drivers... all fine

sireric: Just curious lol, do you actually play LFS or did you just get the license to test LFS and the driver issue? You work for ATI, right?

Thanks for the info

SD.

He was a demo user on the earlier post so he's just got it now if we can get the majority of ati guys into LFS we would have great support even surround gaming support for 3 monitors

Quote from danowat :

It seems to affect a particular combination, that being an Intel HT P4, or a dual core AMD, and an ATI card.

Dan,

hmmm, i have an AMD Athlon 2800, which isnt dual core, and an ATi 9600 XT, so your suggesting it would work ok... i may have to try it, althogh id rather wait and try the new 6.2's when they come out

I personally would rather play than "test", but both will get done. Since this is "my" license, well... :-)

It appears I'm unable to activate Antisoptric Filtering and Anti-Aliasing ingame. Since I've already activated both options in the Catalyst Control Center 5.11 (the newer driver versions are quite buggy, and I'm experiencing the same problem with them anyway) at 6x/16x and it's still deactivated ingame I'm guessing there is an ingame option overruling my CCC settings.
Is there such an option ingame? Or a bugfix either?

Welcome to the forum, sTyleFree.
1. There is no AA/AF setting in the game.
2. The CCC setting overrules the game-setting, if you tell the CCC to do so.

Sees new post........please be a fix,please be a fix,please be a fix, DOH!!!

Woah, where did you get your background from? :jawdrop: *me wants it *

I have an x800 Pro and have run most of the old Cat5 drivers had have never had a problem. I am now using the Cat 6.1 and I still am getting 90+fps with all settings all the way up. I just wish this game could push my video card a bit more.
My stats:
AMD 2500+ Barton (OC to 2.18Ghz -- 3200+ speeds)
1.5GB DDR
x800 Pro (OC to 447Mhz core and 565Mhz mem)

It's the "Road to S2" Wallpaper by n!incognito, I found it at the German LfS-Forums of 4Players.de on page #19 (click me, I'm a link)

Anyway, gonna try Radlinker now.

e.
hm, Radlinker doesn't seem to control AA/AF at all - there is no option like that. Only Clock Rate and Colors are editable :/

I use the 5.11 Cats with ATI Tray Tools.

I have a game profile set up within ATI Tray Tools for LFS with AA and AF enabled which is automatically applied when LFS.exe is run. On exiting LFS, the graphics settings revert to whatever they were set at beforehand.

I have been led to believe that the ATI Tray Tools app actually works with Nvidia cards as well, but I don't have one to try it with.

Hm, there should be a 3D tab. I remember having this too and I reinstalled either my drivers or Windows. :P


edit:
There are driver cleaners available. Never tried them though.

Hm, with ATi Tray Tools set to maximum quality settings I get about 2x or 4x Anti-Aliasing, but no Antisoptric Filltering..arghs X_x
