Now, what does geometric instancing do? Should I keep it enabled for other games?

MY GOD - HE HAS IT! I too have this problem! I searched in vain for information about it around here as well. Sorry I sound so excited, but I'm just glad that im not the only one with problems with my 4870! I too also have the problem on Dead Space. This issue is an absolute gamebreaker. I've searched in CCC for Geometric Instancing (as well as fiddled with tons of functions in order to try something that works). I've tried different drivers, s

Ha. I have to admit, that every time I've had a problem a small thought would pop into my head: "would I be having this problem with nvidia?" I've been a long time buyer of ATI cards, and I think they give great products for great price But this has been unnacceptable. I'm giving them til the 9.xx drivers, and if things don't pick up, I might just have to switch cards. I guess this is a lost hope, but

No, I don't

Valve never dissapoints with the HL series, and if you can find some friends to play it with, Civ 4 is possibly one of the funnest games out there

Heh, thank you! Built it over the summer. Yeah, everything plays fine except spore (which I said technically isn't supported - though some other 4800 series users have it working for them) and the demigod beta I used to have this problem with Fallout 3 and Farcry 2, but having my cards replaced and updating drivers fixed it Now it's just these two. I understand this is the beta, so maybe the final won't have this problem. Sa

Haha, 8.10! I thought it was odd for someone to still be using 8.1! They're different drivers you see. I reinstalled 8.12 and tried turning of crossfire to see if it would help - no dice Here's the specs: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q6700 @ 2.66GHz (4 CPUs), ~2.7GHz

All the way to 8.1? There's been several updates after it, but before 8.11 or 8.12... (I guess that's what you get for buying a card with only beta drivers) Alright, tried rolling back to 8.1 and the problem persists. However, I'm not sue if the rollback was succesful - I removed/uninstalled Catalyst control center 8.12 and went to the radeon site and searched their older drivers. I found 8.1 and installed, but during the installiation it said tha

Same here, you have to choose assassins through the room slots

I was using the 8.11, and I just updated to the 8.12 driver about a half hour ago to see if it might fix the problem You suggest rolling back to 8.1? I wonder if it has anything to do with crossfire.

I actually just had my video cards replaced for a similar reason - they work fine for everything except Spore. Spore actually has the same problem - but - the game doesn't even support the 4870 I really hope that isn't the problem. Does Gas plan to inlcude support for the radeon 4800 series? It's a fairly high end series.

Hello All. Downloaded Beta 2 today, but I encountered a game breaking problem. While the main menu loads up fine, and all menus after that, when I actually get into the game, the screen is covered with hundrereds of twitching triangles and odd shapes - the screen glichtes out of control. The game is playing fine, I can hear my demigod and hear him attacking and sometimes make out the edge of maps, but most of the screen is always covered.
