Bug report

[Ozymandis]

I would like to make a bug report for PowerDesk 5.41 which did not exist in 5.30. In Lithtech engine games that support single-pass multitexturing (read: Shogo and Blood2 both), my G400max is not allowing the game to use singlepass lightmapping. This is a serious problem, as it seriously impedes framerates. See www.tomshardware.com, benchmarks, for evidence. I have found that fps go down by nearly a third when using 5.41 due to this problem. Anyone else experience this problem?

Thanx !

It's been reproduced and they are working on a fix.

Maggi you must be really hurting those eyes w/the 20+ models. Why dont you do yourself a favor and FedEx them to me? I'll send you a nice Blue Mountain card.
Really, how's the g400 compared to the g200?
