new ati driver 10.5 should resolve problems

[27th_Olympos]

Thank you for your suggestions but i have much worse problem now.
I removed the 10.5 driver and installed the previous version (9.12)
Now the game does not start at all.
It produces an error file each time it has a failed start:


An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the VM.

looks to me like some files from the 10.5 driver weren't deleted when you installed 9.12 ("Library=C:\Windows\system32\aticfx32.dll" tells me this), did u run the uninstaller for the 10.5 drivers before you installed 9.12? if not, you'll have to re-install the 10.5 drivers, uninstall them properly, then go back to 9.12...and if that doesn't work google an ATI driver cleaner type program (i don't remember what its called) and completely remove all files related to ur ATI drivers, and re-install 9.12

AKA_Tenn i followed your suggestions and reinstalled 10.5, everything works again, thank you very much.

I turned off Dynamicallights (set it to 0) but it did not help.

What is actually flashing is trasparent textures like canopies when against transparent objects like clouds or prop disks.

S!

Also try disabling both VertexArray options, set them to 0 under conf.ini.

[27th_Olympos]

They are already set to 0.
After further testing i found that the problem exists with some aircraft only.
Some have flashing canopies, some others flashing/disappearing prop disks. No problem when you set AA to "application controlled".

S!

Have you checked if Catalyst AI makes any difference? Test using it on Standard and Advanced with AA on and off. Blue hue should be gone with VertexArrays if you set dynamical lighting to 0.

Attention: New Catalyst Driver are out (Catalyst 10.6) but some people are reporting that the Problems who were resolved in the 10.5 for some ATI graphic cards owner did bring the Problem in 10.6 back and is getting worse…

I did not test it yet
