Dark textures and previous ATI drivers


(Satiro) #1

Hey there,as many ati customers I’m having some troubles. With 11.5a and 11.5b my fps fall to 25-35 without AA ,but texture and everything are ok ,contrarly, with previous drivers (from catalyst 10.8 to 11.1)the game run very well (i’m playing about at 45-60 fps without AA) but textures become darker than normal :\ (as u can see down here). Is there any way to fix theese dark textures?

there’s also my dxdiag.

Thank you

That black texture looks like an error ETQW also had with ATI cards on certain drivers. Terrain and objects could turn black. The fix was always different drivers. Looks like you’re in the same boat as many other ATI card owners… Wait for a new driver :frowning:

I had the same problem, for me it was a faulty driver install.
Deinstalling driver restarting and installing drivers again fixed it for me.
you can also search for a driver removal tool.

Driver Sweeper

(the version that appear first in google on guru3d is old, this is the main page)

First uninstall catalyst drivers, them use Driver Sweeper to erase the remaining files.

Then reboot and install the new drivers.
