[-MT- 0]

Anyone having a big FPS Decrease whit the new ATi Drivers (4.8) ?

I was having about 75 Regular whit nothing exept a Soldier on Everon and now I get like 25-36.

Vehicle Shadows = OFF

Object Shadows = OFF

Terrain = Very Low

Resolution = 1024x768x32

T&W is on

Viewdistance = 900

Visual Quality = 11.90 (Max)

Sound Hardware Acceleration = OFF

EAX = OFF

AA = OFF

AX = OFF

Made the Auto-Detect Thing and I get a 4360 Benchmark.

When I was using the 4.7's I could play whit 16-25 Regular FPS whit 48 Abrams on Desert Island and now when I add more than 4 soldier and 1 Jeep, I get only about 13.

my Rig :

AMD Athlon 2000xp+ (1633mhz).

ASUS A7V333.

ATi Radeon 9600 256mb.

1024mb PC2700 DDR/333mhz Kingston Ram.

I just turned on omegas based on 4.7. Same crap, but I got a choice at least.

- optimized for older Games with some bugs in new

- stay on regular

I am using 4.7 Omega Softmod drivers but I can't say much cause I haven't tried 50 tanks!

Your problem is that your a Kerry/Edwards supporter and your computer disagrees with you. Seriously though, try out the ATI Doom3 beta drivers. Set everything to max and put your viewdistance to 1200.

I get 6000 on the preferences benchmark. I really don't think there is a difference between the other cat's.
