Edit: I found the working url --- a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/20307/1m/www2.ati.com/DRIVERS/hotfix/catalyst_10.10_hotfixes/catalyst_10.10e_hotfix_win7_nov9.exe BUT it is for Win 7 only.
well, for 5K and up.
Oh and the link works fine for me.
Edit: Nope. Its dead lol
Having updates looks like the opposite of fail to me.
Btw the link does work fine, what doesn't work is AMD's download link.
Now that is really so much damn fail... :)
They will have to go to 10.10A1 / 10.10B1 and so on lol
Either way, no need to mod drivers for my HD5850. And i love MLAA. It's good to see they keep old customers happy by adding such extra features.
no bullshit with
driver
222.22 has features A B and C
222.23 has A B and D but forgot C
222.24 is a beta made by a monkey and has its roots in the detonator 30.82 drivers, etc etc.
not to say ATI havent done the same shit in the past too, i just like the current orderly naming system.
Otherwise why bother and waste development resources twice?
Release final.
work on fixes.
as fixes come out, release betas.
go by community feedback/extra testing to see what goes into next hotfix.
when due for new driver, pick best hotfix, slap whatever latest stuff you have on top, release, rinse and repeat.
BTW. I'm now waiting on the "z" class ATI dragon warship driver with a cloaking device so I can remove the klingon drivers.
ATI: Hey guys, were giving you more enhancements, and some performance increases. But we promise not to kill your cards.
You: Wahhhh, more features, I can't even use the features I have to max out my scorez in benchmarking....
If you don't like it, don't use it. But stop your bitching, as I for one would love some MLAA action in a few games.
just unforgivable.
