| Rivatuner 2.21 |
| Forum: General Software | Posted By weasel, 04:33 PM, 12-12-2008 |
Minor bugfixes:
* FOURCC INTZ and RAWZ formats are no longer forcibly disabled on GeForce 6 and newer display adapters when closing the 'Textures' tab in Direct3D tweaks dialog. Please take a note that these formats are required for proper GTA IV functionality, so if you experience problems with missing textures in this game on NVIDIA GeForce 6 and newer display adapters then please try to open the 'Textures' tab and press the 'Defaults' button.
* Fixed 'Restore after suspended mode' option in low-level fan control tab, corrupted in the previous release due to multi-GPU related core changes.
What's new:
* Updated databases for Detonator and ForceWare drivers. Added databases for ForceWare 180.60, 180.70 and 180.84.]
* Added Catalyst 8.12 driver family detection.
* Added 'Enable FOURCC INTZ surfaces' and 'Enable FOURCC RAWZ surfaces' options to the 'Textures' tab of the Direct3D tweaks dialog.
* 'Restore after suspended mode' option in low-level fan control tab is multi-GPU oriented now. Now the option affects all display adapters in the system instead of currently selected display adapter only.
* 'Allow separate 2D/3D clock frequency adjustment' option is no longer provided when enabling driver-level hardware overclocking. The option is now hidden to reduce the amount of false bugreports posted by the beginners trying to disable 2D/3D clock frequncy then claiming that the hardware stays at extremely low boot clocks. Power users can still control this option via AllowMaxPerf registry entry.
* Extended list of detectable supported FOURCC formats in 'IDirect3D9 HAL adapter formats' diagnostic report category.

| Spam bots |
 Forum: Site Feedback | Posted By Azrael, 08:32 PM, 10-23-2008 |
Hey guys,
I'm sure I'm not the only one who's seen the many spam bots that have been sprouting since about 2-3 months now. Just wanting to get the word out about reporting posts, if you guys do it the spam posts will be deleted faster. Sure, it's only a tiny measure, but until Tefra gets around to banning them it's the best I can do.
Oh and if you suspect a bot, please e-mail Tefra or me the username so we can monitor the person to see what actions to follow up with. |

| Forum: Ati GFX Display Drivers | Posted By 1337GamingNinja, 09:58 PM, 10-15-2008 |
ATI's Catalyst 8.10 is out today.
Unfortunately I'm too busy right now to post a summary of the release notes.
So you'll just have to look for yourselves.
Enjoy.
Edit: The notes are short enough to summarize.
New Features
Catalyst Control Center™ Fan speed control
Force Component Video Detection
For OS specific changes refer to the release notes.
Second Edit: The direct link to the release notes won't work so it has been deleted from the post.
Go to download it and click on the release notes from there and it should work fine.
