SoftfireGl works with RT 15.3 for 8.062 drivers!!!! But not sure at 100%

No.

 

Thanks to Lord Banshee and JoeJoe for all the handy tips! made my 9800xt (hacked pro) into a firegl x2 and also using the maximum drivers on 3ds max 7. just in case anyone wants to know. the RT 15.3 doesnt work on the latest driver 8.083.

 

I guess ATI figured out they left something out last time around lol

 

Hi all man(sory my english,european, I hope theres someone that could help me with my problem, I have realy big and i would say mysterious problem with my Sapphire Radeon9800pro 128DDR mod to FGL X2, I dont try Lord Banshees guide posted here yet, but i Tried guide on Adrian Rojak Pot with RivaT 14.3 and FGL driver 7.96.2.1 unified, I succesfully completed this guide but the result? Maya performance dropdown about 5-7times!!! There where i was have 125fps with pro i have now 25fps..strange? i would say..
I also try FreeFireGL driver but result? the same...Maybe there could be the problem with core - i think its R360 (AIDA and RT shows 350 but on the chip is writen 360 So i also tried BIOS flash to ATI 9800XT R360 128DDR version and then FreeFireGL but the same problem. So I dont really dont know whats wrong, maybe someone here could help me pls...
PS:my conf. is AXP 3200+ 1GB RAM , WIN XP profi SP1. I tested only in maya but this program i think is optimised for these GL cards so it couldnt be problem here i think.

 

So I tried Lord Banshees guide now, and i was not succesfull I try it with the original Sapphire BIOS (R350), ive done all the steps, patched sys file and then i wrote IDs(4E48 i have the same)but i dontknow where to find second device id?? So i wrote 4E68 like in the guide result= driver installed succefully but control panel is not present (only base panel,not FGL) and performance in maya is the same like on 9800pro. OK i tried second method - i flash 9800XT R360 BIOS and to inf and INI files i wrote ID of XT - 4e4a,second i presume - 4e6a, result? Performance the same but FGL control panel installed succesfully.So i havent absolutly no idea what to do now.

 

Any tips to mod x800 to x3?

 

I softmod my 9500 128MB 256-bit to FireGL X1-128. I have tried both 7.88.4.1 and 8062 driver packages. Here is the specviewperf 8.0.1 results:

7.88.4.1
=======
3dsmax-03 Weighted Geometric Mean = 8.178
catia-01 Weighted Geometric Mean = 9.365
ensight-01 Weighted Geometric Mean = 8.989
light-07 Weighted Geometric Mean = 9.165
maya-01 Weighted Geometric Mean = 11.16
proe-03 Weighted Geometric Mean = 12.07
sw-01 Weighted Geometric Mean = 5.431
ugs-04 Weighted Geometric Mean = 11.35

8062
=====
3dsmax-03 Weighted Geometric Mean = 18.75
catia-01 Weighted Geometric Mean = 16.08
ensight-01 Weighted Geometric Mean = 15.46
light-07 Weighted Geometric Mean = 14.66
maya-01 Weighted Geometric Mean = 21.55
proe-03 Weighted Geometric Mean = 29.16
sw-01 Weighted Geometric Mean = 13.13
ugs-04 Weighted Geometric Mean = 14.89


I wonder why the differences are so great. Anyone got an idea?

 

FireGL drivers have improved a lot lately. Latest ones made my X1 almost as fast as Quadro FX 3000 in SpecViewPerf 8.01

Maybe you should try using my recipe for making your own FreeFireGL:

This information is several months old, is Alecs guide still working on brand new bought Ati cards?

Secondly, is Mayas viewport high quality rendering mode working with a RT softmoded card?

Last, are there any shader benefits with softmoded Firegl cards like there are on the Quadro cards ?

:beer:

you can do that with this script:

ps.why would you want to mod it to x3 anyway, (maybe cos of AGP...) if you can mod it to 7100?

I˙m looking for a way to mod x850xt to 7200 based on R480GL chip,...(theres 2 different FireGL 7200 based on different chips R520GL and R480GL) but I still don`t have a solution...

 

Who have a atiomgl9.drv please?
