Oo I have: 2400+ (running 12x194) 9700pro 512 XMS3200 Epox 8RDA+ and I wouldn't dare run 6xAA 16xAF because even at 4xAA, 8xAF the framerates are often terrible! What sort of FPS do you get?

I could never see/feel/benchmark the difference between the earlier 3.x Omega drivers so I just used normal Cats for my latest format

9700pro @ 360/660 I get about 12k 3dmark01 with the settings I run OFP in (4xFSAA 8xAF), so overall performance isn't the issue. It's fixable by disabling AF and FSAA, but I shouldn't have to

Sorry, I don't have a solution, but could you tell me which ports are meant to be enabled per protocol?

Woah...not cool Thanks to the great people at ATI I can't even look at a forest in OFP without the fps going to about 5, and the entire game seeming to go into slow motion - mouse moves slowly, the video/sound lag...

Pressing 'Tab' will automatically cycle to the next *enemy* target, ignoring static/empty vehicles - so unless you made allowance for that, it won't be of much use other than cosmetic

I won't say anything with regards to faith and having a specific religious belief, as it always degenerates to pure flaming at some point and I can't even begin to comprehend the believers' mindset. Anyhow - why do you feel the need to attribute any particular philosophy or structure to 'life, the universe and everything' killagee? It seems most sensible to me to simply approach life in a pragmatic manner.

Having used kX project drivers for several months now, I can assure you that 99.99% of all SB Live problems were the fault of Creative's driver dev team, rather than the hardware. With 3rd party drivers, there are no issues whatsoever with OFP.

*shrug* I don't know enough to argue whether every response from a human can be predicted and is wholly based on genetics and experience, but in my opinion, a computer isn't truly intelligent while it is merely a program running through predetermined lines of code. Also, I'm not going to argue philosophy. A machine is a machine, and if I want to, I'll torture the fuckin thing

I assume it's been taken care of by experts in the formulating of theories - but what about whim and irrational behaviour? Acting contrary to reason with no particular basis is seen in human behaviour, but would it be seen where an animal is acting purely on instinct?

That's not learning in an intelligent sense, that's simply mimicking. When a computer is able to continually expand it's code to suit it's own purposes, without limit, then true AI exists. Up until then, any 'intelligence' exhibited by computers is not true intelligence, it is simply following predetermined patterns of behaviour determined by the programmers, however complex and wideranging that may be. Also, I would have no qualms with killing a sentient AI being, it would make it more fun (aww cmon people it's essentially just electrons!)

It seems to be a problem on Nvidia's end, and happens with most games. The sounds are incorrectly occluded and so forth, so you might not hear a thing 5m away, but you can hear a tank on the other side of Nogova. I went back to using my SB Live with the KX Project drivers, which are fantastic.

It's threads like these that make me want to drop my combined finance/economics degree and go straight into physics. I'm sure that in the long run however, pragmatism will overcome my scepticism at what is essentially a degree in sociology and human behaviour

It happens to me all the time, and I do what most of you do - alt-tab and IE to get the OFP connection flowing again.

I'd love to see a coherent upgrade pack for both SP and MP, it would enhance the game no end.
