Yes, shadows and sky rendering are incorrect there.

I'm having big problems on Radeon 7770 + Catalyst 12.8. Here is video with my problems:


Also, this time not killed outerra.exe process was eating about 600MB, so much more than before. :P
Should I try reinstall?

You seem to be unlucky with the hardware choices :)

But this seems to be odd even for the known driver issues of the 7xxx series. Can you attach the eng.log here?

Can you try shooting down Xfire? Programs like those can interfere with OT by hooking into it and not being able to handle its decoupled rendering loop properly.

PS: Check in the log whether it's not hooked into OT anymore.

Unfortunately shuting down Xfire doesn't help. I don't know which other can interfere with OT (steam,fraps - they're turned off).

Also, in eng.log there is no longer "xfire" line in "Loaded modules" after turning off xfire. There are only 4 lines, all with original Outerra modules.

Ok, better sure than sorry. Damn, these AMD woes never end :(

Can you try older ATI driver versions? What was the first one that supported 7xxx?
Just be sure the driver installer really overwrites the files.

I asked my buddy to test Outerra demo. He has Radeon 7850.

I will try older drivers, but not today.

Also 2 videos from spherical and cylindrical projection:

There are also 12.9 beta drivers, they didn't work with previous versions because of a new driver bug they introduced, but we worked around it in this version so you may give it a try.

You are still making those videos private ...

Sorry, fixed. ;)

My buddy with Radeon 7850 + Catalyst 12.8 is having the same issue. Also, he has quite new installation of Windows 7, about 1 month? (Mine Windows 7 installation is over 1 year.)

Well as I said, it's a driver issue with 7xxx series. AMD has different code paths in the drivers for their chipsets, so it happens quite often that with the same driver something breaks on one series but not on the others.

Btw are you getting the same errors away from the sea, somewhere inland?

Yes, for example somewhere deep in Himalayas I'm also having this issue. Also, somewhere away from land (on ocean) I'm still getting this issue on water.

Beautiful!!!Great job, the shadow on the object has disappeared!!! .. all looks great.There is one thing though.. I think the update gave an automatic reset on the lighting of things.Or was it the update itself?Anyway.. nice to see the helicopter back :D.

The water makes minecraft squares again...  a lot more,lots more and now they come in different colors ;D... but that doesn't matter too much, maybe you will allow and probably everyone will want to play with the 3D vectors of the water and make their own kind of waves of the water.

And by the way.. did you increased the iterations on things, that's why the shadows don't appear anymore?.. but I think it increased it on water as well... looks more repetitive.Will this be affecting the objects with a higher poly count?
