Title: New Custom nVIDIA and ATI Drivers
Post by: Pride on May 07, 2005, 08:34:12 PM
I just came across these... looks pretty cool!

-=[Greetings and Salutations]=-
DHzer0point ATI Drivers are modified Catalyst drivers, and are provided as is, meaning they are NOT supported or endorsed by ATI, or any 3rd party OEM manufacturers. They are not covered by any warranty or guarantee, and you install them at your own risk.

Currently these drivers are for all ATI desktop cards. Mobility support for the 9000 through the x600 is included however use at your own risk. We're in need of Laptop beta testers if you would like to help us out head on over to Driverheaven and post in the Mobility Radeon Drivers and Support forum.

Included in this release is a GlideWrapper for older games which use Glide, 3dfx's proprietary API, which we all know is bloody awesome. Credit for the GlideWrapper goes to Rolf Neuberger, and permission is granted in his readme for distribution. We highly reccomend taking a look at the readme file for Glidewrapper if you have any questions, and we take as always no responsibility for your use, or misuse, of the program.

Also included is Radclocker, available seperately from http://www28.brinkster.com/chrisww1942/ Current version of Radclocker does not support the newest PCI/e Cards, if you are running one of these cards we reccomend grabbing the full version of Radlinker from the authors website. Much thanks goes out to ChrisW, the author, for allowing us to distribute this overclocking tool for the community.

-=[Install Paths for Game Optimizations]=-
The HL2 tweaks work on both HL2 AND CS:S, if you copy them to both locations listed below. For  Doom3, choose whether your card has 256MB RAM or 128MB. The Farcry Enhancement will overwrite  your current Game.cfg file, so if you don't want to do that simply rename your current game.cfg to something else like, game.bak.

If you selected any game configs during install, you should see the appropriate .cfg files in  the install directory [Program Files\DHzer0point Drivers is default]. These files should be  installed automatically however if there are any problems with the install just move them to  the appropriate folder.

HL2 autoexec.cfg -> Steam\SteamApps\USERNAME\half-life 2\hl2\cfg\

CS:Source autoexec.cfg -> Steam\SteamApps\USERNAME\counter-strike source\hl2\cfg\

Doom3 autoexec.cfg -> Doom3\base

FarCry Game.cfg -> Farcry\



-=[Support]=-
Ok, all legal crap aside, we hope you enjoy our drivers. The idea behind DHzer0point drivers  is to maximize IQ without decreasing performance. In short, these drivers are not for you  benchmarking junkies, but rather, they are for the gamers. If you encounter any difficulties,  glitches, bugs, etc, please visit DriverHeaven.net and hop in the forums, look for 'ATI  display drivers' and tell us the following:

-What the issue(s) is(are)
-What video card you have
-What CPU/motherboard you have
-What games/applications you encounter the bug(s) in

By agreeing with this legal blurb here, you are agreeing to all of ATI's EULA, and not to  hold anyone (the DHzer0point team, DriverHeaven, ATI, the site you downloaded them from, or  the gnome in your bathroom) accountable for any malfunction of these drivers.

-=[Thanks]=-
Special thanks goes out to:
-Omega for help with custom resolutions
-ChrisW for allowing us to distribute Radclocker
-Spike aka Ruud Ketelaars for the installer
-knyz for help with the HL2 Tweaks
-The guys over at DriverHeaven for inspiration and feedback
-The guys over at Guru3D for their feedback
-Judas and Zardon for the splash screen
-Zardon for believing in us

Thanks,
---The zer0point Driver Team
