and for the record ati was also banned with a driverset on 3dmark so there u go but they admitted it nvidia didnt
yeah i do know your posting history u have too much time on yer hands and i aint gonna ask yer mate nowt coz this is a debate that already has gone to far anyway and have no time for asking ppl how good of a poster you are

 

[McArra]

Too many retarded people here, I'm leaving the thread....

 

[Gstanfor]

Please, enlighten me as to nVidia's farcry misdeeds - I'm fascinated to know what they might be.

And what are you trying to say about Doom3? - it would help if you communicated in english...

 

[Codey47]

saying that the screenshots were running on a nvidia was ps3.0 when it was an os upgrade not GPU compliance thats the misdeed something that only i seem to have picked up on seems that nvidia shud be exposed on this matter LIARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
look and read dont just look at the pretty little pictures

2746 posts mate you really are a lonely dood aint ya

I was not talking about you, it was about Gstanford and Ackmed. You are a fanboy, they are fanatics. Ackmed has even doubt about the experience of quite a lot of HDR and SM3.0 users, not the first time he does and not the last of course. If you can't see this features as a plus and usable (experience of us proof it) but as a kind of weapon... well, ATi is a little faster (same settings of course Ackmed :roll, Nvidia has more features. I prefer IQ to 200+fps as long as it is smooth to the eye, I don't care about fps as I have seen games @60+fps look less smoth than Farcry with HDR.

I like both sides, I loved my 9700pro, 9800pro (remember shiny pipes Ackmed? similar to HDR or SM3.0 isn't it?) and now 6800GT. Next gen I will go with the one with more features and performance (little less performance+ability to use more features is better IMO than higher perf less IQ features). So either R520 or G70, I couldn't care less which of them I choose since I have no real data. Or maybe I just skip it... who knows.

EDIT: lonely? no thanks

ROFLMAO. Where on earth did you ever get the idea that PS3.0 was introduced for farcry with the 64 bit patch??? I can assure you its been around much longer than that...

McArra, I can assure you that if there is one thing I most definitely am NOT it is a fanATic!

You're right you're not, but very close to nVidiot.

I KNOW
u still missing sumthing on the upstairs department.... how many times do i have to state
when nvidia released screenshots on the pixel shader 3 support for farcry launching their image quality attack on ati they said that the screenshots were pixel shader 3 support when the 1.3 patch was released no image difference was seen between ps2.0 and 2.0b and ps3.0 they released some screenshots sumthing that they claimed that the images were seen in ps3.0 but since the 64 bit patch has been released that the screenshots are identical to the x850xt therefore its a patch for the game and os upgrade and not pixel shader 3.0 as originally stated by nvidia quite some time ago
http://www.hardocp.com/article.html?art=Njc4 (dated Wednesday, October 27, 2004)
this proves that the patch has no difference in image quality between nvidia and atis ps2.0 and ps3.0 like originally stated by nvidia even tho they released screenshots originally saying heres the difference between ps3.0 and 2.0 when the ps 2.0 screenshots were actually labeled by nvidia as ps2.0 when they were really ps1.1 screenies
http://www.hardocp.com/article.html?art=NzY3 (dated Tuesday, May 10, 2005) this article proves that the effects of image quality due to the new 64 bit patch and os upgrade
proving that this was not ps3.0 ONLY
nvidia had previously released these as a marketing ploy to the public to sell their cards it was more of an insight into the new 64bit patch and os upgrade and not GPU capabilities
boom ...reply when u know more of the matter and when u have scrutinised the evidence
so read them u fools

We all benefit from having two strong companies who keep the other pushing the envelope with new technologies.

Seconded

But if theres only one company then we wont have to buy a new card every 6 months to keep up to date

Calm down and search those topics in this forums and look at our reactions....

Also ATi has done something similar with Nvidia's AA, so just wake up and see how things are right now, don't stick to the past as there's even more than you remember and ATi is also there as is Nvidia

EDIT: beautifull pic LOL

So ATi has your trust do they?

They don't cheat? How about permanently on Trylinear? how about replacement shaders (Doom3)? How about lying about your competitor every single chance you get (latest example being nVidia's supposed AA quality vs ATi's with supersampling)? - there is more - lots, lots more, but I've already covered a fair bit of it in other threads. I suggest you do a little reading.

Do me a favor and stay out of my threads.

Wow, you act like you own this thread just because you posted it. That's not how a public forum works.

I don't see no slideshows on my 6800GT - I didn't see too many on my 5900XT either...

Now, once again - make like a tree, and leave!

You had a 5900XT? You must be a fanboy to have ever owned that turd.

 

[Aftermath]

BTW, how hard is it to spell "trilinear" correctly?

"Filter the textures, or do not. There is no 'trylinear'."

Okay fine, that was actually pretty funny.

It was a card that performed extremely well in games I played at the time, at an extremely good price point. It was the Ti4200 of the early DX9 era.

WTF? Is it ATI's fault that the FX Line weren't as good as the Radeon Line? How is this poetic payback? :roll: Finally both companies are bottlenecked for superiority against each other therefore highly motivating both companies to make good cards.

No, it isn't ATi's fault that the FX line wasn't as good as the Radeon line.

IT IS ATi's fault that they are pathological liars both about their own products and those of their competition (and even what the DX9 spec encompasses - "Partial Precision wasn't always a part of DX9..."). They possess the business ethics and morals of an alley cat in heat.

It was a piece of crap.

The 9500P was probably faster.

I believe you could of bought the 9700P for around the price of the 5900XT at the time, I dont even need to make a comparison there since the 9700P probably was just as fast or faster than the whole FX line.

Thats your opinion and you are entitled to it.

Fact is 5900XT sold extremely well for nVidia and was a good performer in games (except for the 2 or 3 titles that actually used DX9 at the time). Mine easily overclocked past 5900 standard levels and this was typical of almost all 5900XT's sold.

I still use the card in a secondary system and it plays Half-Life 2 - ATI's posterchild DX9 game fantastically well - in DX9 mode, no thanks to lard arse Newell of course or to the ATi programmers who wrote HL2's shaders, but that's easily fixed

 

[Codey47]

so gstan whats your evaluation of the nvida farcry situation i do not have my answer do u still disagree with me?
i dont know why i asked this bcoz you probly havent give the articles a look over have u
and the valve situation was nvidia and ati cards all played around similar framerates give or take 10-15 frames and looked virtually the same in resolutions up to 1280x1024
apart from the AA is better on the ati card

FarCry
README file ? Patch 1.3
Visit wwww.CryMod.com for the latest updates on modding FarCry

Patch 1.3 change log

* Fixed a crash with the ForkLift when loading some levels.
* Fixed a bug that prevented levels from loading after saving in a previous level.
* Returned surround 5.1 sound option to the menu.
* Fixed a mounted weapon traverse problem.
* Fixed problems related to shaders1.pak and scripts1.pak not being removed on installation of the patch.
* Fixed a delay relating to tagging enemies in binocular mode.
* Normal Map Compression. Requirements: NVidia: Geforce FX Family or better, ATI: x800 card or better. This feature is disabled by default. To enable it, type r_TexNormalMapCompressed 1 in the console after loading a level. Enabling this feature during the game may take some time - the PC may appear to freeze. This variable will not be saved when restarting the game. Enabling normal map compression will have prolonged execution the first time running through a level due to initial compression phase occurring in real time through the level. Subsequent reloads of the same level will yield better performance and therefore we recommend that you run any benchmark twice and to take the second of the two runs for benchmarking purposes since this most closely represents the usual user experience.
* SM 3.0 and SM 2.0x are now enabled by default when graphics settings are set to ?Very High?. To see performance increases you must have Direct X 9.0c installed.
* Improved tangent-space calculation to improve bumpmap quality.
* Anisotropic filtering disabled for some textures (light-maps, several lookup textures, fall-off maps) for increased performance.
* When attempting to connect to PunkBuster regulated servers, make sure you are not running with ?DEVMODE enabled. Run the Farcry.exe itself (not a shortcut) if you are unsure.
* If you are kicked from a PunkBuster enabled server with the reason ?No packet flow?, make sure the Windows XP internal firewall is disabled.
* Improved syncronization in multiplayer.
* Fixed bug in leaning with different player classes.
* Fixed an invisible wall exploit in mp_freighter.
* Please ensure you have your graphics cards latest drivers installed.
