game freeze with mobility radeon

Post by lebanni »

hi,

when launching game on my notebook, it freezes before the login screen.

there's a warning about the ati driver wich is 6.4.0.4 instead of 6.4.3.0, but sony's site hasn't got the 6.4.3.0 version (and ati support redirects to sony's)

is there some way to obtain the driver (or desactivate a graphic option)

thanks in advance

notebook vaio PCG-Z1RMP
ATI MOBILITY RADEON 64 Mo

Leban try http://www.dell.com, i have a dell laptop and mobility radeon card as well, they have drivers, u'll be able to get into the game just to crash every 5-10 mins lol. This game doesn't like ATI users, i hope it will be addressed very soon because this game is one of a kind

I've been playing the game with an 32Mb Mobility Radeon for months.... basically I need to use:

(i) Use Direct3D
(ii) Disable AGP for vertex

This gets me into game, but I need to (iii) switch off all the special effects for clouds and shadows, else the game will freeze within just couple of mins.

Hope this helps you to get in and enjoy this great game.

I have been having the same problem, but the game works well enough in OpenGL and you get to turn all the graphics up up up.
