What's New?

* Based on the official Catalyst 3.6 ATI drivers. (9x/ME/2k/XP)
* Added support for the following chipsets: (9x/ME/2k/XP)
Radeon 9600 TX
* Fixed the "Card not supported" message, now the drivers should install
in any card without problems. (9x/ME/2k/XP)
* Experimental Mobility Support in 9x/ME (installs differently, let me know
if it installs correctly). (9x/ME)
* Added some new tweaks that should improve performance. (9x/ME/2k/XP)
* Updated the Overclocking utility to version 1.800d. (2k/XP)
* Re-Enabled support for 1280x768 resolution. (2k/XP)
* The 9500->9800 and 9700->9800 hack is still avaiable as an install
option. (2k/XP)
* The 9x/ME drivers still don't have the hacked driver incorporated, sorry. (9x/ME)

I'm very happy with cat 3.6 so I'll see how people says they are before installing them. If the IQ is the same or better and performance too, then I'll istall them.

Awesome. I have been getting some CTD's in BF1942, hopefully a tweak inadvertenly changed that =)

Bump for all

I found these drivers very good for my 9700 pro. Is the 9800 soft hack worth installing?

ronnn,i don't know if i'm imagining it but i used the 9700>9800 hack on the latest omega drivers and the card seems
to have picked up a little more image qaulity and performance in bf1942.
3dmark score went down a little but it seems that it works great in gaming.

sweet, works with my 9500 np

 

[sman789]

sweet, i hope there's a mod for my 9600....🙁

How much of a boost do you get from the non-hacked soft-mod versus the hacked soft-mod for a 9700 PRO > 9800?

 

[Corporate Thug]

is the 14 mb one the new cat 3.6?

 

[Slammy1]

LOL. On the 3.5 Omega, comparing 3dMark scores vs the catalyst with the 9800 mod, the Omega scored 100 more points higher (18900) in 01 and had the same score in 03. I still like Omega better.

Is anyone able to play Morrowind without issues with these drivers?

R U having issues with 3.6?

Morrowind causes my system to reboot after a few minutes into the game.

 

[1ManArmY]

OMEGA 3.6 or ATI (catalyst 3.6) ?

Thanks, I feel about the same, the image quality seems better in subtle ways with hot pursuit 2. Hard to tell as I am always mucking with the settings.
