    Im not gonna explain a lot about it for now, but if you currently have a game without crossfire support and using radeon pro or renaming method to force another profile to get crossfire working, this thread might be interesting for you.
    Also if you have a game without crossfire support and have failed with radeonpro/renaming or you don't know how/don't have the will to do it, i can maybe try that for you.

    CCAPs are always based on the latest version of official amd caps, so they contain all the things amd caps have, plus all my new addictions. (see changelog below)

    To make a request for a profile to be added you need to tell me these things: (but most of the time i manage to get hold of the game, so i can do that myself.)
    1)name of the game
    2)name of the game exe
    3)name of the exe/profile you are currently using to make it work

    Downloads:
    Latest version: (contains all previous fixes, unless noted otherwise)
    CCAPs 2.4

    How to install:
    Remove existing CAPs/CCAPs via windows uninstall manager do not reboot.
    Install CCAPs and reboot.

    Holy crap this is awesome, is this what we can do with marthand's "AMD Catalyst 8.93 (Nov. 18)"?

    I haven't been able to figure how to create a custom profile for a single game with out selecting an overall profile.

    Wow oh wow.
    Might it be possible to force AA in games that normally are not supported to have? (Read Deferred lighting or shading)
    For example UEngine 3 games like Brothers in Arms Hell's Highway (I know this ones has a profile though)

    Even tough, it's not for me, as i don't have CFX, i congratulate you my friend for being awesome!
    Thanks asder!!!!

    Excellant thanks asder, currently failing to get Test drive unlimited 2 working with radeonpro (which apparently has in the past for others - on the radeonpro blog and linked to a recent topic i bumped).

    1)name of the game - Test Drive Unlimited 2
    2)name of the game exe - TestDrive2.exe using the ubisoft launcher (uplauncher.exe)
    3)name of the window title - Test Drive Unlimited 2
    4)name of the exe/profile you are currently using to make it work - it doesn't work for me but they recommend bioshock profile on the radeonpro blog/forums (with AFR)

    Thanks again if you can get ahold of it! I picked it up recently on the steam sale - 22fps :( can't get the crossfire to work on any setting but people have before. I can get it to hook with radeonpro fine just the crossfire doesn't seem enabled.

    Many people would love a Skyrim fix, including me.

    However I am unable to uninstall the previous CAP, just bluescreens on me. :(

    AMD guys said application profile can not make skyrim running with CF, it is a driver matter, though they still didn't make it works in new performance driver

    I wish there was a profile for Rift. I get ~3% more FPS with the 2nd card enabled.

    No it's a different thing, this is a direct modification of the CAPs, not user profiles in 8.93.

    Well not entirely true, my main focus is providing crossfire support but there is also a possibility to manage AA, what MerolaC asked.

    I guess we can:
    "CFAA - Compatible Forced AA on UT3-based games"

    Let me know in wich games you wanna try it!

    So i just checked for TDU2 crossfire is disabled in the profile, i will add the fear profile to it (they mention fear here -> http://www.dasreviews.com/das-game-news/crossfire-fix-test-drive-unlimited-2/), download v0.6 try and let me know.

    Rift already have a crossfire profile, it was added in 10.12 CAP2

    Well im no wizard :), i can't test this game for you since is a paid subscription game, so if you want to do something try some profiles(with radeon pro or exe renaming) until you find one that give you crossfire, then tell me wich one is it so i can add it to the ccaps

    BF3 is fine as is.

    Crossfire was disabled for TDU2 on purpose because it scales negatively at less than 1920 x 1200 (which is a game issue). Not everyone games at 1920 x 1200 or above so it was removed. Atari never bothered to release a patch to fix it.

    This is what AMD/ATI need people to find better crossfire fixes or work arounds so that they can be added to the crossfire profiles so that AMD/ATI can get community help aswell at fixing games faster than they can do.

    Because lets face facts AMD/ATI`s crossfire updates are SLOW AS HELL.

    I have tried the fear profile as well (just tried it again to be sure) same settings, it did not work. Neither did the bioshock profile (mentioned here). I am confident no matter what option I am selecting in radeonpro, the game is still disabling crossfire. Radeonpro works for me for (trackmania canyons, sonic generations, the polynomial and mirrors edge but for some reason cant get it to enable crossfire with tdu2.

    Thanks anyway

    Thanks for the info. I do actually game on 1920x1200 so I guess it will be worth it to try and continue to get this to work.

    would you make a CAP for batman arkham city, my 5870cf both run at 58-60% GPU usage using Cat 11.11b in DX11 mode, and used Radeon Pro with almost all profiles, no success.
