AMD roll-out another Catalyst Hotfix for Far Cry 2
written by Ciro - October 30, 2008 05:30

AMD has now released a second Hotfix aimed at Far Cry 2, and this one pays particular attention to the game's image quality. STALKER: Clear Sky also benefits from the release.

Today, you'll find a new hotfix at AMD's Customer Care website. AMD tells us this second hotfix "fixes image quality issue [sic] that was introduced in the preview Far Cry 2 hotfix release posted last week." Surprisingly, the update supposedly improves S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky performance in DirectX 10 mode, as well. (Clear Sky came out back in mid-September, so it's not exactly on the bleeding edge.)

You can grab the second hotfix from this page for both Windows Vista and Windows XP in 32-bit and 64-bit flavors. Once again, AMD says this release only applies to owners of graphics cards from the Radeon X1600 series to the Radeon HD 4800 series—check out the download page for a full list.
