All ATI users, new drivers available for download

[old.Jable]

this maybe should be in the driver forum, but its important and im sure not everyone checks that page.

suffice to say the catalyst 3.2 drivers are out. heres the link.

ok testing out the new drivers.

my stuttering is gone i can wander around and near domnan without the scenery lagging - its so much better and smoother now. i thought before that maybe my video cards memory rate was to blame, being only 200 without overclocking, but now its fine.


walking round domnan used to be more like walking waist deep in mud, now its perfect. im so fkin chuffed

however, the bug where the torch lights up a wall across the courtyard from your character, whileleaving you in total darkness, still remains

Im just pissed that my daoc wont work with drivers after catalyst 2.3 And now that i tested the 3.2, everything runs more smoothly but i crash every 5 mins so cant use them :/

Aldrian same problem mate download rage 3D tweaker and lower your mhz of your card a little (sounds crazy I know), it stops your computer from crashing.

You might also want to test turning Fast Writes off and see if that helps before 'underclocking' your Gfx card.

how do you turn that off? BIOS?

BIOS yeah, be called 'AGP Fast Writes: Enable/Disable'

I still got a weird bug with GF4Ti4600, when chanters cast spells I can see the effects that normally come off their hands miles away in the distance. Freaks me out a bit I keep thinking its some bad guys coming to get me

That bug seems to affect all gfx cards (nowadays means usually :both Ati and Gforce cards...) and is thus probably an 'engine bug' rather than a driver bug.

Thanks for the help, but im still crashing
My next card will be a Geforce.
