catalyst release this week?

BiGBrOwNPimpsta · Mar 5, 2006, 02:13 AM

i think its about time....

i'm excited for the on-going soft shadows bug in many EA games that will not be resolved in this release. and possibly benefits for cards x1800 and above only...

and you guys?

Is that ATI's way of saying buy our new cards and we will give you better drivers?

BiGBrOwNPimpsta · Mar 5, 2006, 02:51 AM

pretty much

Sandok · Mar 5, 2006, 03:50 AM

Well that EA bug is weird... SOoo many games got em and even NV is hit by it so I doubt drivers will change anything

petri1 · Mar 5, 2006, 05:13 AM

well i ma as many others sure that shadow issues in EA games are the Game it Self not driver issues if they were they would´ve been fixed by now so i still say it is game not driver related probelm!

so i think we who bought games like NFS most wanted have to live with it since EA isn´t doing anything about it so there it is: EA sucks

If they know when thier going to be released, then they can't tell you, so all
this when thier going to be released is rumor as useal untill you hear it from ATI

LOL!!! Your useing "mature drivers" for you "OLD CARDS" They been tweaked
a truned to death well past the point of expecting anything much in the way of
"more" in FPS, look to the bug fixes... Ever hear a phrase caled beating a dead
horse? and basically that it get you know where....

The new hardware not only has NEW capabilties and progarmabilt NEVER offerd
before x1K. Meaning they have far more headroom to play with. It'll be some time
untill we see all they can muster for the newer cards...

this bug is more evident in ATI cards, 6600 gt's have no problems yet x850xt pe's do. its maybe PS 3.0 related, but there has been no discussion. and from what I read I found more ati users complaining not just nvidia.
