Omega 44.03 + Serious Sam 2 = stuttering?

Mich · Jul 14, 2003, 01:08 PM

anyone there had seen this?

because I´m having stuttering and very short pauses when playing Serious Sam 2....
Im using PNY Geforce 4 Ti4400 not Oced, on an XP...

no matter what are the configuration of the Serious Engine...it happens always when using Omega Dets 44.03...
reinstalled driver and nothing...
is there a problem on the omega driver or there is a way to solve it?

if I use the 44.90 the problem is gone an Serious Sam plays smooth, but 44.90 gives me a lot of trouble when playing Divx on a cloned Screen.....and also it suffers of bad IQ when playing Midnight Club 2...(no reflections on the car ie)

the 44.03 drivers were bugged up just stick with the new ones.

u mean the 44.90?
I can´t see movies with the 44.90......

It seems strange but when using BSPLAYER to watch Divx, I can only see a green horizontal lines where the movie should be... (but I could hear the sound clearly)...

besides that...44.90 gives me problems with "Star Trek: Elite Force II" and bad IQ with "Midnight Club II"

44.90 should be better! Midnight Club II looks sweet for me and divx movies are perfect try the prototype divx that's what I'm using. 44.90 rocks!

tried both drivers again one more time
and I solved the problems!

I found something strange with Dets 44.90...

I do use an Objectdock bar....
If i leave it working before running Serious Sam 2...I get stuttering during the game...no matter what video settings do i choose....
But with Omega 44.03...it doesn`t happen....

also found the cause of the Divx problems....
It seems to be a problem with the YV12 Output colorspace on this drivers...so i just disabled it on the codec and now it works perfectly...
But with Omega 44.03...it doesn`t happen....

strange....maybe this drivers still need one or more adjusts...
