I use RadeonPro, but renaming the exe file should give the same result. As for the generic profiles, there's two that I know.
AFR-FriendlyD3D.exe
CompatAFR-1x1.exe
Both worked on Brotherhood, but the AFR-Friendly one made it where you could see things through the NPCs. CompatAFR worked perfectly, though. Those will be the first ones I'll be trying, then working through the other profiles in my RadeonPro list.

Yep. I really recommend trying RadeonPro though.
I'm running Crossfired 5870s and since I started using it there hasn't been a single game where I couldn't use Crossfire at launch for games I've played. Of course, sometimes the scaling wasn't the best until there was an official profile for it, but it was still at least 30% faster than using the single GPU.

Feels not so nice for some reason :/

The character design, particularly the fashion, is really top notch in this game. So nice to have characters as good-looking as the settings and vice-versa. They are so often out of balance in western RPGs.
It just gives an error and won't launch when I try to run it.pahamrick said:

Thank you! Sounds like Ill be in the 30 FPS range on Ultra. I might tone down some settings and see how many more FPS I can get from it.
I love the avatar you made. Adol and Geralt should be in a game together
Are there any English written impressions by anyone in Poland? Everything Im seeing is Polish and the rough google translations are hard to read.

Im wondering how much fps you gain if you turn of DOF. In metro 2033 the gain was about 20fps for me.

There have been some impressions here in english, it's apparently pretty hard (in the last couple of pages.
Glad you like the Avatar, looks better when used as an actual avatar... infact, the style fits just perfectly with your original dude - so happy with how it came out
Hopefully you can run it at 30fps on Ultra, because if there is not Crossfire profile for the game at launch I'll be running it virtually on the same card as you

Where does my 560 Ti fall in this range? Are Nvidia cards gonna be fine, or is this going to be another DA2?

This game is one of those "Nvidia, the way it was meant to be played" games, so you'll be the one who's better off here
ColonialRaptor said:
I thought you were going to bed!
Im also wondering how well this game will work with AMDs MLAA. I have a few games where I dont even touch the in game AA options since MLAA gives better performance and smooths out the image enough for me. It can look blurry with other games though and TW2 is one game where I do not want to harm the visuals that way.

very little first impressions for now (activation started working like 3hours ago), people say combat on normal is not so easy, requires getting used to I guess

Excellent. Where is the 560 vs the 4890 that we're all comparing to, generally? Additionally, my monitor caps me at 1280 x 768, so AA is important. Is it likely I can run this super ultra mode at this res to make up for my terrible res cap?

The GOG site lists 2 different times for unlocking and weve been told 2 different times by email. The most recent seems to be the May 17th 17:00 GMT one which means 3am tomorrow morning Eastern time, which also coincides with the countdown clock on TW2s website.
I really wish the original 5:00pm est tonight stuck

Some previewers said the controls are so streamlined with a pad that they plan on using the pad to play the game when it is released. The patch notes above make mention of even more improved pad controls as well, so make sure to update.
Also, no horribly weird blotchy shadows running over people's necks from the dozen+ uber shots above, so that seems fixed as promised!
zoner said:
Im wondering the same myself. Im pretty sure that CDPR announced official support for the 360 controller but the manual doesnt specifically say which button does what. It only lists the KB/M controls and then says "press insert to switch to a 360 controller". Maybe theyre fully customizable.

Oh man, blackmamba thanks for the screen hookup!
So smooth... I can't hardly believe.
Enjoy when this releases everyone! I'll see if I can't get the first witcher to run.
I'm scared to play anything as of recent because I have had my display driver crash twice yesterday. Just from watching videos. : (

Not too bad now that I figured I can just run off the path and ignore the monsters. But yea, the Swamp is a hassle. Hope the sequel doesn't have a similar location. Backtracking galore.Volcynika said:Me too. I lost my save a while back so I never finished the original. Got a bit burned out at the SWAMP.
Leonsito said:zavvi just emailed me the dlc code for the Finisher Pack, great, now the wait for the game to arrive is harder
Really hope they change their stance on the whole "Exclusive Pre-order DLC will remain exclusive."
I'd like to get my hands on the mysterious merchant and finisher pack sometime down the line.

My setup
Q9550 @ 2.8 ghz
4 gb ddr2 800 RAM
5850 1 GB
Will I be able to get 30 FPS on ultra w/ a tiny bit of AA @ 1080 p? Does MLAA work right now?
