Howdy,

I've tried installing a few of Humus' demos and had pretty good sucess with my Radeon 9000, but there were 3 that wouldn't work. I contacted Humus and he couldn't explain the problems. So he suggested I seek some help from other Radeon 9000 users to see if the problems could be replicated.

Here's a list of the demos and the problems associated with each:

1. Dither - White screeen with whole bunch of black dots scattered across
the screen. A frame-rate counter is in the upper left changing. It's usually
around 200fps. I can exit by presssing ESC.

2. Laplace - Black screeen with a frame-rate counter in the upper left
changing. It's usually around 160fps. I can exit by presssing ESC.

3. MotionBlur - White screeen with a frame-rate counter in the upper left
changing. It's usually around 50fps. I can exit by presssing ESC.

If anybody can replicate these problems let me know so Humus and I can figure out what's going on. Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I'm running a P2-333 with Win98, DirectX 9.0 and Catalyst 3.1 drivers.

Right, just tried the demos and I get exactly the same graphical glitches as you do AzBat.


I clicked on the Show Debug Info option (under preferences) and get the following error message:

"GL_INVALID_OPERATION"

I hope that helps. PS I get the same error message for all three of the demos.

Thanks for testing this out Bystander. Can you post some of your system info like I did above? Also, I didn't see any way to select the Show Debug Info option. Hopefully with this info Humus can figure out the problem.

I've got a Athlon XP2100 with WinXP, DX9 and Cat 3.1 drivers.

As for the show debug info its in the Preferences menu option. You'll only see it if you don't run the program fullscreen (i.e. hold down Alt + Enter).

Hmm, my message simply said "GL_INVALID_OPERATION" it didn't give me any explanation though...

The error message I saw was showing up in the rendering window as the same font, style and color as the FPS counter. It wasn't displayed as a dialog box.

I've received a reply from Humus and he has said it's being looked into. He's not sure when the problem will be fixed.

Just tried the Cat 3.2 drivers and the demos appear to work fine now. :)

Cool. I'll download them and try them out too.
