Messed up textures and backgrounds in older games, Carmageddon and Final fantasy VII for example (PM me if you have others)
Affects: Everyone
Workaround for problem: None
Status: Requires implementation of 8-bit palletized texture support (may need emulation as hardware doesn’t appear support it natively), if you wish to petition ATI to add this feature to the drivers http://apps.ati.com/driverfeedback/
Possible method it can be done (suggested by Colouless) Emulating Palettized Textures can be done reasonably fast using Dependant Texture Reads or EMBM (which is just a simple form of depentant texture reading). You use the dependant texture read to emulate the palette lookup when the texture is being used. However, when using this method the quality is generally 'poor' or the speed is 'poor' since you can't use hardware bilinear filtering. You will have to use point sampling, or do all the filtering in a pixel shader (NOTE BY ME None of the drawbacks are really a problem as we are talking about a compatability mode for OLD games that would be running fast anyway and dont use pixel shaders for other purposes)

Me ha hexo grácia el tema esté:
Warcraft 3 corrupted graphics in OGL (use -opengl in the commandline to enable it)

Pero tu te crees que la gente se activa el método opengl del War3 cuando (solo lo he probado hoy con mi ati y va perfecto pero, PEOR (se ve peor) que con Direct3D (que es el por defecto)... y tb lo probé con mi antiguo PC en una GF4 TI 4200 y tambien se veia PEOR que con el Direct3D).

No se tio... yo estoy arto de jugar a muchos de estos juegos y no pasarme todas estas cosas...

Y Te recuerdo el problema del Escape y volver con el RefreshFORCE ese no es un bug de ATI, sino del RefreshFORCE pq yo lo probé cuando tenia la GF4 TI y pasaba exactamente lo que pone allí... xD no se es que me hace grácia la lista... hay cosas que supongo que si aunque no pueda verlas (todo lo de 8500-9200) pues no puedo probarlo, pero el tema de por ejemplo el HL al salir con el Escape hay problemas... es que deve estár heredado del 3.5 de catalist... pq quedo totalmente solucionado con esa versión (el problema lo tenian la 3.4 y anteriores...)

Yo solo he tenido un problema con la ATI con 1 solo juego y simplemente era que el juego estaba mal hecho... ya que con la 1.1 del mismo juego fue solucionado... y era el Gran Theft Auto Vice City.

Respecto al tema de la lista, pues eso... que no veo en mi 9800 pro con los 3.8 ningun problema en ningún sitio... Espero no intentes asustar a nadie... ATI no da ningún problema... almenos a todo aquel que conozca que la tiene.

En las mismas que TaMy.
No, no lo digo por decir "sisi estoy con TaMy", sino porque es la verdad, yo tampoco tengo ningun problema con los 3.8 de ningun tipo de los que en esa lista pretenden dar a conocer.

Con razon uso los Omega 2.4.78a

Shotteh

los 3.8 me van de maravillas :D

G

pues io tengo una 9k, y me ha dado por probar el zero hour, y si, los fallos estan ahi xDDDDDDDDD

tamy no digas ke no tienen fallos bla bla bla cuando pone claramente ke son para las 8500-9200 y tu tienes una 9800

decir tb ke eso da igual y tal ke esos fallos no importan, pues paraos a pensar cuantas dx9 y cuantas dx8.1 hay instaladas hoy por hoy en los pcs de medio mundo, y vereis como esa larga lista de fallos tiene demasiado peso como para ignorarla tan a la torera

TaMy

gosub, es que hay muchos de estos fallos aquí puestos que o ya no deverian estar aquí (solucionados en la 3.4 por ejemplo lo del Counter Strike joder que lo jugamos cada dia....) y otros que no son bugs de la ATI en si, que con NVIDIA, SIS, XGI, ETc....etc.... tambien pasa como lo del RefreshForce. Ya que es muy gracioso, pq le pasa exactamente lo mismo con cualquier otra targeta. No se, simplemente veo cosas que no deverian estar aquí en dicha lista

Desde luego los 3.7 corren MAS y permiten unos ratios de overclock mas agresivos....

Amen de q el VPU Recover me parece q aun esta MUY verde..

Vamos hablando :)

yo m voy a volver a instalar los 3.7 xq los 3.8 no m convencen y mi 9500 va peor

Tranquilos, que los de nVidia son aun mas largos:

  • Cualquier juego con uso intensivo de Pixel Shaders 2.0 funciona a bajos frame rates o con errores gráficos.

Status: Parcheando cada juego indivualmente en nuevas revisiones de drivers (hasta que saquemos el nv40 y al nv3X le den...)

En fin, que bugs hay en todos los drivers. Lo bueno es que se conozcan para asi poderse solucionar. Yo me pase 1 año y medio con una Voodoo3 3500 sin poder escuchar los canales que emitian en estereo, hasta que a 3DFx le dio la gana sacar nuevo driver. :-/ Como no me importaba a nadie (quien coño aparte de mi se compró una 3500 ¿?) no lo arreglaban. Menos mal que un italiano saco un parche.

THEPERRY

Alguna gente no se por q se molesta tanto con una simple lista de bugs,parece q hay gente q se lo toma como algo personal o algo asi.
Otra cosa,imprsionante lista juer como te pongas a mirar enlace por enlace echas 2 dias leyendo,bueno al final la gente decide q drivers le van mejor personalmente y listo,lo mas fiable es la experiencia de los usuarios,digo yo .....

TaMy

Achechino los 3.8 con el VPU desactivado funcionan mejor. (almenos a mi en mi caso) por cierto ya tengo la 9800 pro de 128, la cambie por la de 256 + 80 Euros (que me dieron claro está) y esta aparte de que a los mismos cores me corre más, me permite como 15 Mhz más de lo que me permitia en las memorias la 9800 pro ddr2 de 256. osea que recomiendo que todo aquel que pueda no compre la 256 de ati 9800 pro ya que la de 128 actualmente es mejor o esperaros a la XT.

yo cuando lei lo del problema de los cat 3.8 con la subida de temp. (dicen sobre +o- 10ºC) cambie a los omega nuevos 3.8 rev2 y ahora despues de formatear tiro con los 3.7 q por cierto son la peste este ultimo. Donde esten los drivers del cs de la gráfica que se quiten los demas xd.
