Ofp - radeon 9700 and cat3/dx9

[Mowgli 0]

Has anyone here installed the latest Catalyst drivers (3.0) and DirectX9 and had that fix the flickering problem in OFP?

We have a guy over on the Rage3D forum who is claiming just that.

I find it hard to beleive, but thought I'd ask around here.

Thanks for replies in advance.

Hi,

I have a 9700 Pro and DX9 installed.

I also tried Catalyst 3.0 but it didn´t work for me.

Well it works with Flashpoint CWC and with Resistance V1.75.

But after patching to Version 1.85 I got a BlueScreen

without any Errormessage and the game and Windows (XP)

crashed.

I reinstalled Catalyst 2.5.

Here is a link to the thread in question, although it provides no illumination whatsoever, as the folks with the problem "solved" seem to have clammed up.

ATI is suppose to work out this issue ... I hope so since I really wish I could enjoy OFP with FSAA and aniso enabled ... not like on my GeForce4 which is fine for playing @1280x1024 but with no FSAA

Is BIS also working on this bug that most R9700(Pro) owners have ??

No, the DX9 Catalyst 3 combination does not solve the problem.

Please see the post I made in an older thread:

A Ge-force and DX8.1+ is probably your best bet at solving the problem

How much AA can you activate with

the radeon 9700pro in ofp and does it run smooth? I mean smooth not on empty island.
