IL-2 Random Crashes,ATI video card

Yeah usually I got back to another driver.

I remember the old school diamond stealth would only work for games with its beta drivers.

My friend has ATI card, and it hates IL-2. He swapped it for a Nvidia, and it works fine.

My 256 ATI won't run ROF, but my Nvidia will.

My X1650 I had to get certain driver for IL-2 to work.

Lets just say for my next PC build, its going to have Nvidia SLI or PCIe . . .

Do you remember which driver you used? Maybe it could help me.

The 7.11 cat was the best for the older cards IIRC

x1950 pro
x1650

Does anyone have any idea which Ati drivers are best for more modern cards? I mean, in respect to the gunfiring graphical glitches, and Open GL compatibility?

I have a 4890 and was experiencing all the bad effects like artefacts, blue lighting and worst of all, the FMB crashing! I just went back to the Catalyst 9.5s and everything is just fine.

The gunfire artifact goes way back. I was getting the gunfire artifacts on a HD 3850. Before that I was using an x1550, and that was clear of that problem, not half so powerful graphically, but the gunfire artifact didn't show up once. It may well be that on the 3850 I was using a later driver, and earlier 3850 drivers didn't do it, but I don't have any way of knowing about that. All my recent Radeons have been Sapphires, including the x1550, if they don't work with standard Ati drivers, they certainly used to.

I have just read this, after Alpha recommended i use 7.11 ccc for my X1950 Pro, and now the FMB map loading works in 409m. Probably this issue with OGL in the later drivers, but then, 408m and 409 beta patch never had an issue for some bizarre reason.

Hello,

I am using the XFX HD5870 with Catalyst 10.5 (Win7 64b)and I haven't experienced too many problems. Let me know if you have this card and wish to get a copy of the render section of my conf.ini. Catalyst 10.3 to 10.4 also worked well but you need a work around for the text corruption.

Cheers,
