ATI Catalyst 10.5

**Odinarius** · June 13, 2010, 11:33 AM

Found this in the changelog for ATI Catalyst drivers 10.5:

In-game Anti-Alias can now be applied when other in-game options like Volumetric
Effects are enabled in "Empire: Total War" and "Napoleon: Total War" games

Enabling Anti-Alias in "Empire: Total War" no longer causes a performance drop

My rig can barely pull off volumetric effects, with no anti-aliasing, so I`d like to hear if anyone has noticed these improvements with latest drivers from ATI.

Yes, it's a bit early in the month for 10.6 although there is a leaked preview floating around on the web.

It does need some version of .net but I'm not sure which one, if ATI have any sense it will one of the early versions but what ever it needs I'm 99% sure Windows 7 installs a compatible framework.
