Somehow I got the game to run tolerable on my setup w/ 1.13 drivers. I kept messing with the settings because I was bored since I couldn't play it in 3D. In a nutshell, I maxed out the Overall option to "Ultra High" and just used the nVidia drivers for 3D. Get a great framerate.. Some minor convergence issues and some odd water effects not working, but overall it's playable. Fire is set to low, no AA.

Is there anyone with Window 7 64 bits and AVATAR full game that can't choose DirectX10 like me? The option to choose directx is greyed out and i'm stuck in DX9. :(

I am using CD 1.17 Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.
2 GTX 285s
AMD Phenom 9850 (Quad core 2.5Ghz)
8gigs of RAM.

I can select DX10 no issues there. However if I attempt to turn on or Off S3D while playing under DX10 the game completely freezes. I am forced to CTRL+ ALT+ Del out of it.

My Solution: Play as DX9. I really don't notice the difference between Dx10 and 9 in most games.

I run Windows 7 ultimate 64bit. I can choose D10 but the other guys right, you can't really mess with too many things or it will freeze. You can't even minimize the game to do something else really quick and come back to it. I have D11 installed on my PC, check to see which directX you have installed. I don't know though, my friend had to rename a direct X file in his avatar folder in order to get his to work on the demo. Seems to work ok for him with the full game though.

Is it just me or does no one play this game online???? /sorcerer.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':sorcerer:' />

I have the luxury of working at home (game dev!), so I fired up a game in the middle of the afternoon yesterday just to test it and there were tons of people. However, in the evening absolutely no one online. Odd.

If they do come out with DLC please let it be DEATHMATCH. Also I cannot believe you can't play this games campaign online with another person. Two HUGE negatives for me. /sorcerer.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':sorcerer:' />

I know there is Team Deathmatch, I guess you want just regular deathmatch? I have only played CTF and TDM. There are other modes too. Yeah, I wish there were more multi-modes like Horde and Co-op.

Ok, now I found out how to play in DX10 mode. Everything is working fine except the sky is blinking fast when 3D Vision is enabled, its quite annoying. Is anyone having this issue in DX10? If not, any ideas how to solve this?

Thanks

And you are able to switch on and off DX10 in game with no issues? using the 1.17 drivers?

For folks [u][b]forced[/b][/u] to use pre 1.16/1.17 drivers due to nVidia's gigantic bug, I've noticed these two settings work best for me w/ 1.13 drivers (with just toggling on nVidia's driver - no profile).

Shadows: Medium
Shading: Medium

Everything else can be maxed out and have no issues, but the typical water and shadows "doubling" seems to be what causes all the anomalies. So changing those settings really helps. Shadows to medium still looks good, Shading to medium looks okay. It's worth the trade off for S3D though as it still looks great.
