I know this was asked before but I don't remember seeing a solution, if there was one.
I recently formatted my puter and got everything reinstalled. I did this mainly for performance reason since I hadn't formatted since July and had upgraded my mobo, cpu, and video card since then.
Anyway, I just installed the latest drivers .7103 for my Radeon All In Wonder. It IS fast! Not only that but I saw on the Unreal Tech Page that they have reworked the opengl.dll for UT. So I went ahead and put that on as well. It's EVEN better! It IS a little buggy. You can't go into windowed mode or use alt-esc, alt-tab, alt-enter, or even type preferences in the console, as all these things will crash it. However when it IS running(which is anytime aside from the above) it runs fast and looks really nice. Not only that but they enable the ability to use the S3TC textures along with OpenGL. I tried these and there was absolutely NO slow down. And anyone that's seen these textures KNOWS they look really nice.
Here's where my problem comes in. On certain servers when I'm using the S3TC textures I log in and I can't move(AT ALL). I can talk but I can't do anything else. If I switch back to the old textures(I made two directories) everything works fine. I KNOW it's a texture problem with the S3TC. What I DON'T know is how to fix it. I know this problem has been seen before just wondering if anyone knows exactly what causes it(patch 4.36? , CSHP?...) and how to fix it. I'd really like to play with S3TC on just cause it looks so nice.
Ah well, thanks.
