Radeon fixes, anyone know a good driver?
I have a Radeon 9800 pro, and it has that gamma resetting problem in d3, anyone know how to fix that?
maybe some special drivers?
I heared they are totally redoing their opengl drivers, hopefully that will fix it. but until then...
I had gotten a link to a fix you could do in the sys registry, but that don't work.
thanks

I wouldn't hold my breath on this one....this was said when i first bought my 97009lets see, how long has the 9700 been out???), i waited over a year and finally sold it about 6 or 7 months ago when each driver for it seemed to only get worse.I heared they are totally redoing their opengl drivers.
Back when i had my 9700 the only fix i knew about was the regestry tweak...which didnt work for me eather.
You're exactly right Iceman, but I've found with the latest OMEGA drivers that problem has gone away.

I just found drivers called DNA drivers for the radeon series and you can choose different drivers for opengl, optimized for different games, I chose halflife since it was the closest one to the age of Descent 3. cleared the problem but there was a problem with the main menu not showing up right after you start a game, and also 1600x1200 won't work!Deadmeat wrote:You're exactly right Iceman, but I've found with the latest OMEGA drivers that problem has gone away.
I'll try some different configurations I guess.

the older games opengl settings worked when i tried them. i dont play d3 enough to warrant using that particular opengl driver though. i just run d3 in direct3d when i wanna play it. if you have a 9800 pro you can easily pull that off too without getting the "d3 sucks in direct3d" thing.

I have a Radeon 9600 and I have this gamma issue to. However for me it's a simple fix, but it has to be done with each game
When the game starts hit F2 to bring up the menu, and goto your gamma options, and bump it up a click hit apply, then bump it back down, and hit apply again. Should clear it up for the current session. Next game though....has to be done again.
