hi alex,
I didn't see, there was a new patch... I'm on hollidays so I 'll try it when I ' comme back, and I'll let you know! Did you try it?

Yes, I did. The problem with menu freeze was fixed, but new graphics artifacts appeared. I want you to check it out. May be it's only my problem.

I just realised something that might be the cause of all this. It is a rather big change so I need to some reasearch on it. I will report back when I figure out more.

OK Thomas, take your time.

I have a 2900XT and have the same problem. Hopefully ATi will get on this; Penumbra has had great reviews and is the film equivalent of an oscar-winning indie movie now Smile

It's in ATi's interests to fix it since the 2900xt is their flagship card and Penumbra has an engine that would show it off nicely.

I've made a thread on the Rage3D forums (where the ATi Catalyst team post) and they've said they'd get their driver team working on it:

Lets hope for the best Smile

I will check out the GLSL stuff as soon as I got some free time. Hopefully they can fix a new driver til then Smile
