Omega 4.6 & Far Cry v1.1

I removed Cat 4.6 and installed Omegas and now my far cry gets these weird graphic artifacts:

Before Omega Drivers ATI Cat's

Omega Drivers:

Any reason why it may be doing this??

its definitely a game bug, this is how uninformed people point wrong fingers when they should be looking else where, ATI has confirmed that the game has a bug and it is upto the developers to fix it, dont simply say its omega doing it...

i dunno if this will work, but use driver cleaner that came with omega drivers and the driver cleaner link in my sig. read the directions and reinstall the drivers. see if that works. you may have to install your motherboard drivers and agp drivers after that. its a possiblitiie... but im kinda wondering about the same thing neo cowboy suggests. take screenshots of before and after of the same thing.

The simple solution - enable TrueForm I realised that was the only setting not enabled. Works like a dream now!!

Thx guys~

I'm also having this problem. I have a Radeon 9800XT. It has to be a Far Cry bug because NO other game gives me any errors AT ALL! So I have to remain calm and realise that neither my graphics card or the Omega driver is messed up. If the next patch doesn't remove all the graphical glitches then Im throwing the game in the bin. I suggest others do the same because its not worth all this stress over something you pay £35 for when the point is supposed to be that its FUN to play.
