AMD Catalyst 9.8 Preview

So you didn't do anything? Nothing in the registry, nothing regarding directx dlls? I have a 3850, what's your card?

The first time I ran the game the menu worked ok and the intro (something that I had never managed to see) was perfect, but the character selection was incredibly slow, and the background was all grey. I decided to quit the game, and suddenly I got a lot of corruption, the screen went into power saving mode, and... the computer restarted. After that, not even the menu worked ok (flickering).

BTW, it may be a 3 year old game, but it's fantastic :P

my cart is an 4670 but sorry my system is a bit old installed i can not be sure abaut realy do nothing in wine.

witch wine do you use? don't use 1.01!

wine needs version 1.1.27 für ATI support !!!!!!!!!

older versions do not have an good rederpfadh für fglrx.

start winecfg and check the version.

check the wineqh and wineappdb for oblivion becourse of the .dlls you need.

Ok, so you MAY have used some tricks to make it work. That makes more sense.

Anyway, I tried with the fbo thingy in the registry, with the dx9 dll included in the game, and nothing. Still a lot of corruption, random segfaults, very low performance, etc.

Meh, as I said, back to the open drivers.

in my point of view the leaket driver 8.650 was a 9.9 alpfa..

the 9-8 hase some broken openGL extansions effektet in wine.

the 9.9beta is faster and has less grafic errors becourse of the fixed openGL exstansion.

on 9.8 oblivion works but 9.9 works much better.


FBO works for me in the 9.9 and 9.8 but yes you need some dx9 dll files

Hey Qaridarium,

Out of curiosity, does the 9.9 beta, or later fix the system freeze when a new X display is killed?

It's basically the only thing preventing me from enjoying these new drivers.


To test: edit

/etc/X11/Xwrapper.config

and change

allowed_users=console
to
allowed_users=anybody


then start the server

X :3 -ac -terminate & DISPLAY=:3 [a/program]

when
You'll probably crash your system once you kill that server...
9.7 and 9.8 have really killed the experience for me.
Switching between the VTs works fine, but when I kill the new one while using it... crash. I hope things will improve in the next few releases...


If you don't want to test it (or if it works), a PM with a link would be nice

hi the last one i have access is 8.650 aka 8.65.2

this one is an very very pre alpfa 9-9

there is an final version of 9-9 but you need an NDA accress to the beta driver programm.

the only diverend i can say is that the 8.65.2 has better wine support faster and less graficerrors.

but i think the real final 9.9 driver has more fixes !

talk to an linux user in the beta programm to test the newest beta on your problem.

for an exampel "bridgman" or "energyman" there are many many in this forum i the beta programm only the NDA stops them to talk free PM them and you will get answers.
