Re: Dark Messiah graphics issues on ATI HD3870

Replaying for a third time on HD3870 i keep getting the foggy glimmering. Temple of Spider again. Back to kill the Goblins. Approaching the place, kneeling to aim at them, the glimmering fog appears. https://www.jozefdekkers.nl/blindneroforums/bnf-images/DM-cat712/DM-fog18.jpg After killing the Gobl...

Re: Dark Messiah graphics issues on ATI HD3870

By the way, Disabling A.I. in CCC does not solve any of the problems. Worse: it triggers huge fog effects in rooms and on distant landscapes. Setting A.I. to Standard seems optimal; Advanced gives occasional crash. Also, disabling AA and setting Filtering to Trilinear/Bilinear have no effect on the ...

Re: Dark Messiah graphics issues on ATI HD3870

Closer to the clue. :) Noclipping to such window. WHY does it look different on HD 3870? Look at the lit windows again. On X1900XT: Beautifully shining. https://www.jozefdekkers.nl/blindneroforums/bnf-images/DM-cat712/DM-1900-cat712-6.jpg Close-up: Good transparency. https://blindneroforums.jozefdek...

Re: Dark Messiah graphics issues on ATI HD3870

Well i think this is the clue: On Radeon HD 3870, the light-effect from the 'goodies-star' is simply much too bright. The 'HDR valve' is opened too far, should be turned back a few notches! But it can't be done through the game's Options panel, and i want to keep ATI CCC settings all at default. It ...

Re: Dark Messiah graphics issues on ATI HD3870

Sadly, second time replaying DM on HD 3870 card , i encountered a third problem (that never happened on X1900XT). :( I would call it Exceptional FOG-effect It is NOT related to the issue mentioned in Cat 7.12 Release Notes: [*] Dark Messiah, Might and Magic, or Sin Episodes: Too much fog or incorrec...

Dark Messiah graphics issues on ATI HD3870

How the game looks on my HD 3870, compared to my X1900XT, both using Catalyst 7.12, and at the same settings in CCC and ingame. Problems that look very bad: - the "grab" icon has a horizontal line - the HDR effect on the lit windows is out of proportion, extreme, and can not be corrected b...

Vista 64-bit? A Closer Look at Windows Vista, Part III: 32-Bit vs. 64-Bit Windows This change potentially eliminates or reduces time spent loading and switching between processes, a condition that can lead to “thrashing” when all the processor’s efforts are spent merely loading and switching betwee...

Windows XP: 4 GB RAM over 2 GB? If you put in 4 GB: Windows XP 32-bit is limited to address 4 GB, in practice will address about 3.25GB. Having 3 or 4 GB RAM on a system running Windows XP 32-bit is never a waste: 1. You'll have more than 2 GB while keeping dual channel (if you have that), that's o...
