kevbaz 0 Posted May 17, 2003 New drivers were released yesterday, although they add 200-400 points to a 3dmark benchmark, ofp dont work, the game loads to a green screen or garbled graphics, the drivers dated march are the best bet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 29 Posted May 17, 2003 Admittedly I'm in the desert but I don't see any green Radeon 7500 + Catalyst 3.4, no problems here, seems like you messed something up your end I've searched the two main Radeon support forums and there are no reports there, thus I will change the title of this thread to be a smidge more accurate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 29 Posted May 17, 2003 Ok to update, there is a thread here on the rage3d forums reporting problems in Opf when running in high or very high lanscape, my above pic is low but I changed to high and get the following...... Clearly no problems there either Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stylez 0 Posted May 17, 2003 I get a wonderful "D3derr Out of video memory" Whenever I try and play Opflash with the 3.4s It sucks, because I haven't been able to use any drivers past the 2.5 Catalysts that work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Funkieman 0 Posted May 18, 2003 This is was I get when i install the Catalyst 3.4 and start OFP My Graphiccard and the CPU are not overclocked. It seems that only users with the Radeon 9xxx series get these Problems with OFP and Cat. 3.4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kevbaz 0 Posted May 19, 2003 thats what i got, it was either that or just a green screen, glad it isnt just me, seems placebo was a bit hasty to rename this topic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Funkieman 0 Posted May 19, 2003 Yes i think its a big Problem. In a inofficial german ATI-Forum are a few user with Problems in Games (CS,QIII,OFP) so i think ATI should fix it fast as possible. I think you should test the Omegadriver form www.omegacorner.com they are often better than original ATI-driver. I tested the Omegadriver but they didnt solve the problem on my PC. But test the driver and maybe..... Sorry for the bad English. Edit: I found a "Solution" i made a copy oft the O.pbo and deleted the O.pbo OFP works but without Textures etc...

kevbaz 0 Posted May 19, 2003 Well ive reverted back to the drivers released in march, theres obviously a major problem, what card do you have? im running a 9700pro, is it just the 9xxx serise of cards? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Funkieman 0 Posted May 19, 2003 lol im running the same card a Hercules R9700PRO. Yes it seems that only users with the R9XXX series get these problems. Does anyone know where i can download the omegadrivers based on Catalyst 3.2?? The Driverheaven.net-mirror is down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stylez 0 Posted May 19, 2003 Well, I'm back to the 2.5 Cats again. Again everything runs beautifully (no artifacting or flashing in Opflash). I recommend them if you are having problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GhostX 0 Posted May 20, 2003 My Radeon 9700Pro and Cat 3.4 => moon landscape. I'll try to disable w-buffer in radeonator and let you know the result. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Funkieman 0 Posted May 20, 2003 Maybe a friend found a solution, he has flashed a updatet Bios on his R9700Pro and OFP works fine with Catalyst 3.4 I will test it an if it work i tell you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
