ATI releases Catalyst 6.1

ATI has let us know that the latest version of its Catalyst driver is up on its website.

After a mammoth 13 releases of Catalyst last year, taking the team to 5.13, the new release is labelled 6.1. It is not available in any format other than as a Catalyst Control Center download, meaning that those looking for a snappy UI will be out of luck.

The list of improvements to the driver is as follows:

• BattleField 2 Special Forces: A blooming or ghosting effect is no longer noticed when playing the game in night vision mode.
  
• Beyond Good and Evil: Flickering artifacts are no longer noticed on the game characters after approximately 15 minutes of game play.
  
• Dark Age of Camelot: The game no longer exits to the desktop immediately after launching, or after playing for up to 15 minutes.
  
• Everquest II, The Fall, and World of Warcraft: A VPU Recover event or the operating system failing to respond no longer occur when playing the game.
  
• Half-Life2: Enabling Catalyst AI no longer results in the outer edges of the water appear dark or black in color.
  
• World of Warcraft: Rotating or zooming within the Blackwing Lair or Seering George level of the game no longer results in a VPR Recover occurring after approximately a few minutes of game play.
