Mingan Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 after looking it up, it seems the squeal with v-sync off is caused by coil whine resulting from too many FPS That's it, and it is perfectly normal. Some cards do it, some don't, some games cause it, some don't. Just ignore it. Your graphics card is not going to explode. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
__Yossarian0815[jby] Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 The shadows are less ragged with the hotfix on my ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5870. Very nice, Thx!

Shadrach Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I was hoping this shader fix would improve the really ugly shadows I'm getting at times, but sadly they didn't I seem to have about the same problem as Mingan - they look terrible and move around when I move the camera. This is on Nvidia GTX 580, Win7, 301.42 driver (latest stable). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 As if I needed a reminder why video cards/drivers suck. Why should there be so many different behaviors from us using the APIs these companies say they support? Grrr... Keep the reports coming, we'll keep tweaking things. The great part about the new shades is we can release hot fixes without waiting for a big patch. It was really nice to see so many people benefit from the first ever use of this feature!

Mighty Ajax Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Looking pretty good on my little Nvidia 8800 GT. A little lag with mid sized scenarios, but I've got all the graphics maxed. Beautiful game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tank Hunter Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Improved shadow on my GTX 580. Game looks and feels good. Nice job. Looking forward to the same improvements on CMBN. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Note to self: if you ever think of doing graphics software, punch self in head and think again... ... then do it anyway, then forever punch self in head. That's the route we chose! Steve 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mingan Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 When all computers have 1000 cores @ 4 Ghz you can make your own software renderer. No more driver hell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
