CATALYST maker is a jewel in the roughCATALYST maker is a jewel in the roughCATALYST maker is a jewel in the roughCATALYST maker is a jewel in the rough

CATALYST 4.11 Available now

Go and get it
http://www.ati.com/home/online/CatalystCCCdriver.html
or
http://www.ati.com/home/online/CatalystXPdriver.html

First link is for users of RADEON 9500 and higher and that want to use the Catalyst control center.

Second link is for anyone else.

Oh and DH mods if you could kindly put up the poll for rating the driver and the CCC again, that would be appreciated. Feel free to put links to them in this post as required.

Nice, I'll install and play with these latter. Right now I'm happy with Omega's beta based build. If they had the PB fix I'd be all over them. All good things come in time though I suppose.

interspaced is on a distinguished road

Still have this strange glitch on the de_dust maps on counterstrike source

http://img107.exs.cx/img107/5959/de_dust20000.jpg

I've had this since the 4.10s and only seems to occur on the dust maps and only in counterstrike source. Disabling catalyst AI will fix the problem but i thought it might be nice for ATI to be aware of this.

Setup:
intel 2.66Ghz Pentium 4
768 RAM
MSI-6701 motherboard
Sapphire atlantis 9800 pro

I'm unable to adjust my refresh rate, i'm stuck at 60hz, in the CCC the options are greyed out :S Very strange. I also cannot get into the old control panel because when I wanna go in to advanced under display settings my system reboots.

this seems to be a fairly minor upgrade, so I think I'll stick with the Omega Beta 4.10 drivers...the most interesting part of this release is the news that...."the CATALYST 4.12 is slated to be posted as a beta in the next few days, and will be our best offering for an exciting and upcoming new game." (translation= best drivers to use for HALF LIFE 2)

No I was not only CCC without CP, but I was wrong settings were not greyed out. But 60Hz was the only option available and under force I could only select some options from 43 - 60Hz. As a solution I removed the drivers+CCC again and installed the version that comes with CP, there i was able to set the refresh rate to the desired 100Hz. to bad but i ws jsut getting used to the CCC.

There are a lot of performance improvements in this set. We just didnt have time to document it right now. We will update the release notes next week and you will get the full details.

Its just we were focusing on another driver dealing with some game that is supposedly coming out very soon, that people seem to be interested in. Cant think of that games name, but hmmm... oh ya I better get back to getting the beta CAT 4.12's out....

Spellbot 5000 is on a distinguished road

A question for Omega about his future release of these:

Now that the official Cat 4.11's are out, do you know if the bug seen in the 8.07 betas that caused some games(City of Heroes, CS: Source) to ignore their assigned gamma values will be fixed(assigned in-game or through Radlinker)? I think you mentioned it may have been a Radlinker issue, so I was wondering if that'll be tweaked for your release.
