Default Re: Do the new Radeon drivers help fps?

It just seems like the Radeons don't do well with DomII, especially the Pro's. I have a 9600 pro and get 8 fps high and 13 fps medium, so I have to play with low for 25 fps. My brother barely did better with his 9800 pro.
I did try the omega drivers, but they caused a small but noticable performance drop on everything I tested, including DomII. Needless to say I was unimpressed and removed them and reinstalled my old drivers.
It would be nice if Illwinter wrote a direct3d Version or optimazations for radeon cards, but although I know nothing about 3d coding I still think it would be too much trouble for them to bother.
