When I play with 16X32 0X16X High Quality, all settings on highest, water=3, the FRAPs counter pretty much stays on 85 when I'm flying around alone.
Man is that game dull.![]()

Hope you didn't pay too much.
(BTW Happy New Year!)

I really don't see many games using this feature down the line, and if it's a marquee title you can be pretty sure that they will code in a workaround.
That said, it's pretty dumb of ATI to skip over ANY hardware-related features of SM3. They shouldn't have called it "SM3 done right" if they skipped features!

but they claim it isn't skipped . . . they say that they can workaround it without major penalty . . . . as i understand it, we don't know that ATI cards perform poorly in PF compared to nVidia cards because of "lack" of VTF . . . how would one actually find out?
Since this isn't a major title [is it?], perhaps ATi is too lazy or preoccupied to address it in a driver update
PF isn't on my "to play list" . . . but i'd still like to see 'why'
thanks for the follow-up, Rollo . . . perhaps we can learn something useful before it gets shot down in flames
[pun intended]

If ATI didn't skip the feature then why is Rollo making threads about it?![]()

Hail Mary weekend bump. Help us Rollo, you're our only hope--or at least the only guy in all of Video with a GF6/7 and PF.
Last plea, honest.
