Spring RTS Engine

Yesterday i used spring 0.80 with Catalyst 9.7, all things was fine. Now i installed the new Catalyst 9.8, and i always get atioglxx.dll error after launching a game.


I uploaded several infologs, maybe they will be usefull.
PC: Athlon2 240, 2G ram, radeon HD4670, XP SP3 32bit


*** the first infolog contains record from a kernel panic game, i saw the battlefield for 2 seconds, before crash.

unfortunately, ati sometimes releases broken drivers...

Did you do uninstall, reboot, driver cleaner, reboot, install, reboot?

I know how to downgrade, but i do not want downgrage Catalyst just because the Spring.

I'm asking if you upgraded properly.

Oh...

No, i don't do this way. I only do this procedure, when change videocards.


I will try this way, but i'm sure about the crash contains.

have you tried changing spring's gfx settings? i know bumpwater in 0.80.0 causes 9.7 drivers to crash for me.

The comlete bump-mapped water setting are gray in my springsettings. (it's normal? That settings was also unsuable with Catalyst 9.7) I uploaded my settings. I tryed also in windowed mode, but give the same crash.

You need to enable bumpwater to be able to edit bumpwater settings...

Lol, i used bump water setting for big amount of spring releases, and i completly forget about now, how to set it.

After i set the bump water, 2 things can be happen. Instant crash when i pst the test spring button, or i can see for some seconds the battlefield, before the crash comes.

i can confirm 9.8 crashes, will investigate.

temporary workaround: disable PBO (pixel buffer objects).

should be fixed now.

Without PBO, the game works fine. (expect bump-mapped water settings, that option also cause crash - other water settings works fine)
