Like your trolling Sacrifice thread? Indeed there are people that think they're above the rules the mods clearly laid out for us.

hmm... was there a personal attack or name calling i missed?

certainly seems to me this falls under the discussing "video products, including their performance specifications, their relative merits and problems" as stated in the post by the forum mod?

Trolling thread? What the heck? I ordered a game, am considering a X1800XT, and had questions?

Relax guys...Alot of folks in here knows this problem. Does it happen to every game available? I'm sure it's annoying as hell when you see crappy shadows and what not. I noticed on the 6600 also, it didn't bother me...

Hopefully there is a resolution to this one.

oh well :confused:

I'd try to help you guys but I'm having extreme difficulty seeing any shadows on my gun in the Far Cry Research Demo. I do not own the full game, however the Demo also has e_shadow_maps_receving.

I have been thinking about buying Sacrifice, and a X1800XT. Imagine my dismay when I found I cannot play Sacrifice well on an ATI card, with the same IQ as a nVidia card.

I've always wanted to try Sacrifice, and want to try a X1800XT, but how can I do it if ATI won't fix it?!?!?

I know this has probably been discussed before here, and on other forums, but as a potential ATI customer I have a RIGHT to see this get resolved before I spend my hard earned money on an ATI card?

Do you think they're working on it?

Is there a workaround in the config?!?!

So it would seem.

Yeah. Your thread was so innocent, with absolutely no other agenda.

Dammit you changed your avatar. Now I will have to adjust my eyes so I know which posts not to read.
