MSI Afterburner 2.2.0 Beta 9 (2011-11-24)

[msi-afterburner]

Hi guys, we released the latest MSI afterburner beta 9 today to support the upcoming graphics card which will be announced on 11/29. Due to NDA issue, we can't list which model can be supported. Let you guys to decode it.

- Added core voltage control for reference design NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti *** cores series graphics cards
- Added core, memory and auxiliary PEXVDD voltage control for custom design MSI N560GTX-*** Twin Frozr III Power Edition series graphics cards with uP6218+uP6262 voltage regulators
- MSI On-Screen Display server has been upgraded to version 4.2.4. New version gives you the following improvements:
o Now MSI Afterburner displays captured video file time, size, per-frame compression ratio and time in the On-Screen Display next to the video capture progress indicator only when "Show own statistics" option is enabled in the server's properties
o Added power user oriented application profile setting allowing MSI On-Screen Display Server to detect runtime function offsets dynamically on each 3D application startup. This provides On-Screen Display functionality support in applications using modified Direct3D runtime libraries (e.g. FXAA injection Direct3D runtimes)
o Updated profiles list
- Added new compatibility option allowing using protected kernel mode low-level access to hardware instead of user mode one. This option can also be used to bypass Punkbuster related stability issues
- Now MSI Afterburner restores default hardware automatic fan control mode when logging off from Windows
- Now power users may enable optional single tray icon mode via the configuration file. When single tray icon mode is enabled, the primary application tray icon is being replaced with hardware monitoring tray icon(s) if monitoring in system tray is enabled and MSI On-Screen Display server's icon is not being displayed in tray when the server is loaded. Please take a note that MSI On-Screen Display server's properties are still accessible via "More" button in "OSD" tab
- Now shared control memory reinitialization is initiated by delayed fan speed readback mechanism
- Now MSI Afterburner can restart itself automatically instead of displaying restart requirement notification after changing some global compatibility options, e.g. unlocking voltage control or disabling low-level hardware access interface
- Now DirectX web setup is integrated into the installer
- Fixed critical typos in Polish language pack

Thanks Unwinder for the update, just one question, where do I enable the application setting to allow OSD when using FXAA? I see nothing in CFG file or settings. Is it enabled by default? Thanks.

Added power user oriented application profile setting allowing MSI On-Screen Display Server to detect runtime function offsets dynamically on each 3D application startup. This provides On-Screen Display functionality support in applications using modified Direct3D runtime libraries (e.g. FXAA injection Direct3D runtimes)

How do I get this working with FXAA injection mod? I've tried the following config.

[Hooking]
EnableHooking=1
EnableFloatingInjectionAddress=1
HookLoadLibrary=1
HookDirectDraw=0
HookDirect3D8=1
HookDirect3D9=1
HookDXGI=1
HookOpenGL=1

As the release notes is telling, it is in OSD server's profile setting so you can find it info OSD server's configuration files, not into Afterburner's CFG. And no, of course it is not enabled by default, otherwise it won't be declared as power user oriented feature.
It is controlled by EnableDynamicOffsetDetection field of [Hooking] section and I'd strongly recommend to put it into local profiles for desired apps only instead of enabling it globally for all applications at once.

[TFL Replica]

Tested EnableDynamicOffsetDetection with FXAA injection mod on individual game profiles.

Here are the results along with the exe the profile was created for:

Disciples 3(DisciplesIII.exe): Works fine
Two Worlds II (TwoWorlds2.exe): Works fine
Skyrim (TESV.exe): Works fine (don't profile the launcher)

Thank you for update!

Thank you very much
OSD with injected FXAA - I waited for this

The start-up time has become instant... Like I'm opening Chromium ( even though I'm using Fx 11 a1 :S ).

Would be possible to implement in the future the Windows UI animations ( smoother minimise/maximise - open/close )? Chromium lacks the feature too. Not a problem, of course.
