Has ATI given full openGL support for Vista yet? Just wondering, as shadows have never worked for me since I got a new computer with Vista. I'm running on an x1300 pro, I believe, and I try to keep it's drivers updated.
I'd assume not, but noone else has complained. However, if anyone knows of a fix, it would be greatly appreciated.
Shadows?

my new laptop has an x1100 xpress and I've tried spring with it.
Initially things look ok albeit at 20fps which is quite poor for the x1100 express compared to what the other programs are able todo.
So I tried building things and found the line bug where it would draw random coloured lines when ever spring tried to draw stuff. And then it started flickering and all the ground dissapeared. All the ground and water on the map dissapeared replaced by a cyan blue square.
ATI OpenGL support is apalling, nm their vista support. Heck they've gotten so tired of developing for OpenGL that they're fobbing off their driver development onto the opensource community, and the linux community hasn't realized yet!
Nvidia as usual beats ATi in a landslide at everything OGL.

Odd that it buggered up that badly. The problems I've had so far have been:
-One one drvier release, Spring randomly died. Worked with previous and following releases. (
)-Ground textures are occasionally milky white. Alpha is still there, but the texture is just white.
-Shadows refuse to work.
They're annoying, but it rarely crashes, so gameplay is mostly not affected. Strange yours didn't work. A computer I used to use was XP running an ATI card, and it worked beautifully on spring.
