AMD Software Adrenalin 24.8.1 WHQL Released

[btarunr]

AMD today released the latest version of AMD Software Adrenalin drivers for Radeon GPUs and integrated graphics. Version 24.8.1 comes with optimization for "Black Myth: Wukong." It also includes optimization for "Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Open Beta," "Concord," and "Star Wars Outlaws." The drivers extend HYPR-Tune support to "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare III," "Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered," and "Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales." Anti-Lag 2 support is added to "Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut."

AMD also took the opportunity to fix a handful issues. To begin with, an intermittent application crash for "Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess" on Radeon RX 6600 series and RX 6700 series GPUs, has been fixed. Another such crash when launching "Pacific Drive" and "Kingdom Hearts -HD 1.5+2.5 ReMIX" has been fixed. AA and AF settings failing to correctly apply for OpenGL applications has been fixed. Artifacts in games such as "Rust" and "Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales" have been fixed. Abnormally high memory usage when playing certain editions of "Minecraft Java Edition" has been fixed. The shader optimization time in "Forza Motorsport" has been reduced.

You have Gpu-z screenshot?

Can someone tell me why AMD has still not managed to provide its drivers with valid certificates?
Both the AMD and MS certificates have been expired for ages in the PDFWKRNL.sys file!!!!
(located in the usbcpdfw.exe).
Since 11.05.24 from AMD and 15.12.23 on MS side expired! and something like this is in a current driver pack where Windows denies access with every installation.
For 8 months I have been reporting the error over and over again and nobody at AMD cares ...

The link for this was posted on reddit yesterday and quickly pulled as it was giving a 404 error so looks like that hasn't been fixed yet.

I have existing bugs I report for over 3 years without a fix in Winwos 10 / 11 Pro.
Do not worry, gnu linux has less support from AMD as for the Windows platform.

That Button has a fault for years. I report it quite regularly.

What relevance would that have?

Not in my experience - having used the AMD app to update to 24.7.1 not that long ago as the most recent time it was successful.

As I was told, this driver got pulled (for now) due to missing language files.

There is nothing wrong with the button. There are no drivers for it to find as these are not released yet.
