[razak644]

still an issue anti aliased locking up the game while at the map...Did the same in 1.29..probably driver issue..

ati 4780x2 with 9.3 drivers..

[razak644]

tested with 9.4 drivers and its still freezing at map.

We have lots of issues with ATI drivers. Have you tried any others ones for a fix ? ATI driver support seems to be about the worst we have ever seen.

Well 1 guy started a thread about this on the ati support forums (not sure about his name, ozi something i think it is) and some of us posted our problems there. From what was posted elsewhere: 8.7 is the last driver with good flags and 8.12 the last driver where map doesn't freeze with aa enabled. I myself tried 8.12 but reverted to 9.4 as I thought the raw performance is better with the latest driver (and playing such a long time with corrupted flags I know now which one is which:rolleyes:). I also think that the font corruption issue is exclusive to ati as well and still present in 1.30 (see the thread about this, pictures were posted). I personally tried almost all of the tweaks in ati tray tools, nothing helped.

I've got a single 4850 to test with. We'll see if we can replicate it.

ya reverting back to 8.xx drivers for me is out of the question because of compatibility issues with other games. If you run the game offline, AA works fine..it only gets caught up on the game map.. Ill just have to run without AA until a fix is found.

I was able to replicate on my 4850 ATI card. Should be fixed for next beta. Please retest.

[DOC]

That would be the .19 build due out any minute now.

(well by days end we hope)

[GOPHUR]

Should be fixed. Let us know.

The mapfreeze is fixed for me,AA working fine in the game with a 4870x2.

Great job rats!

[GOPHUR]

4870x2...drool.

Ok well I'll consider this fixed until someone tells me it ain't.
