Angel 'Omegadrive' Trinidad heeft zojuist versie 3.8.221 van de Omega Catalyst-drivers uitgebracht. De Omega-drivers bevatten diverse aanpassingen op de officiele Catalyst drivers van ATi die de computer stabieler moeten houden terwijl er geprobeerd wordt de beeldkwaliteit te verhogen en een aantal extra frames per seconde in spellen te behalen. Verder worden ook Multires en een aangepaste versie van de ATi Tray Tools meegeleverd om het tweakers feest compleet te maken. In deze release is onder andere ondersteuning voor de X1900-serie en de wide-screen resolutie van 1440x900 toegevoegd. Verder zou ATi Tray Tools het nu ook beter moeten doen op moederborden met een geintegreerde videokaart en op laptops. Het complete changelog van deze release ziet er als volgt uit:
What's New in Omega Drivers 3.8.221?Known Issues:
- Based on the Catalyst 6.2 Official drivers.
- Added support for x1900 Series.
- Fixed installation support for Radeon Express 200 cards.
- Added a new wide-screen resolution, 1440x900.
- Added an option to the installer to make sure ATT works correctly with IGP/Laptops.
Important Info:
- Some of the settings for both D3D & OGL will not be synchronized between ATT and the normal ATI CP, you must only use one of them to make changes, the best option is to use ATT since the ATI CP does not support changes to AI and in order to use the advanced D3D/OGL features. Changes made in ATT will work on games and such but the changes will not be reflected in the normal ATI CP since ATI stores the registry values that the CP reads separate from the actual values in the registry.
What's new for ATI Tray Tools 1.0.5.824?
- Since these drivers include a non-standard version of ATT, I would recommend that if you have any previous version of ATT installed, please uninstall it before installing these drivers, not doing so may cause unknown problems.
