+ Added full support for "ATI Control Center".
Now ATT can operate in two modes. Old mode and New Control Center Mode. The new Mode will be automaticaly activated if Control Center is installed. The difference between these two modes are:
-In new mode separate settings for d3d/ogl are removed. Added single 3D option.
-In Game Profiles now you will choice only sinlge 3D profile for both Direct3D and OpenGL games.
+ Removed "Radeon Information" plugins. Now you can use internal System Information, located in "Hardware->System Information" menu.
+ Added support for Catalyst AI.
1.0.1.371
+ Reverted 3D detection code for OpenGL application to old one.
Because build 370 of ATI Tray Tools and FRAPS use same procedures to detect OpenGL activity, there are known bugs when 3d applications doesn't start. I have decided to revert my code to old detection procedure, which has no conflict with fraps.
1.0.1.370.
+ Updated Plug-Ins API. Added Run Time type plug-ins. These plugins will be executed at ATT start up.
+ Added PCI Register Set plug-in. Using this plugin, you can create list of PCI registers, which will be programmed at start-up. Also these registers will be restored after suspend/hibernate mode. Useful for setting BUS Disconnect on/off on motherboards without such option in bios.
Example:
For motherboards using nVidia nForce 2 Ultra 400 chipsets you can enable "BUS Disconnect" and "Halt Monitor detect" using these values.
bus = 0
device = 0
function = 0
register = 6F
value = 9F
+ Added CPU Load metter plugin with full source as example of "How to create Run time plugins and show information in system tray".
+ Updated Radeon Info plug-in.
+ Updated Games Profiles. Added option to close ATT after game end. But be careful and don't ask me if you got an error! If you set as game executable an loader, not the game itself, and this loader will be terminated after game start, ATT will be terminated too! Just remember. ATI Tray Tools will monitor .exe file provided as Game Executable!
+ Added option to load color profile at start up.
+ Fixed bug with TemporalAA in OpenGL configuration form.
+ Added OEM settings. (If you want to include ATT in your software/drivers package, please contact me first! I will provide more information)
1.0.1.367
+ TemporalAA now can be included in OpenGL/Direct3D profiles and associated with games. Be informed, TemporalAA is shared between Direct3D and OpenGL system, so if you disable TAA for Direct3D it will be automatically disabled for OpenGL and vice versa!
+ Fixed bug with memory speed detection on Radeon 9000.
+ Fixed bug with setting timings at start up
1.0.1.364
+ Bug fixes
1.0.1.362
+ Now timings can be loaded at start up. You must select which profile will be loaded at start up time, insteed of selecting clocks values.
+ Added 2 new hot keys , very usefull for mobile computer users. Will work on desktop system only if your monitor support this interface.
- Turn Monitor Off
- Turn Monitor On
+ Now color settings will not be reset if you change resolution
+ Added option to automaticaly overclock your card if any application required 3D Api (OpenGL/Direct3D)
How it works.
If you enable 2d/3d overclocking you must set which profile shoukd be loaded when application enter 3d mode and which profile load after this application finished. ATT some times can not detect when game use 3d mode. If you find such kind of game, create profile for it.
Also you can create the list of application which should be excluded from auto 2d/3d detecting. Some of the applications already excluded internaly by ATT and never will be monitored.
explorer.exe
atitray.exe
atitool.exe
nvmixer.exe
+ Changes in game profiles
For Game profiles now you can set 3 options:
1. Take no action - ATT will do nothing even if you enable 2d/3d overclocking and game use 3d mode.
2. Custom overclocking - If you set this option ATT will use overclocking profile you provided for this game only. even if 2d/3d overclocking is enabled.
3. Use auto 2d/3d - This option tells ATT to use global 2d/3d profiles. This option has no effect if you disable 2d/3d overclocking. But if you set this option (with global 2d/3d detection enabled) and your application does not require 3D mode, 3D profile anyway will be loaded.
+ Screensave will be disabled while 3D Render window is active.
- Removed "Autodetect Starting Games". Now this option is part of auto 2d/3d overclocking and always ON. It can not be disabled.
- Removed "With CPU Heat" function from Artifact tester. Now tester itself can heat main CPU.
1.0.1.358
+ Added "Artifact Tester" with ability to find maximum values for GPU and MEM. Including an option to heat up main CPU, to simulate game environment.
- Be notified, that procedure to find real maximum clocks is not as simple as you can think. It is a very huge job and I never will create such options in ATI Tray Tools. The given procedure is intended to find clock, when no artifact detected during given time, while rendering a simple scene. (The space ship have about 26 000 triangles.). So it is up to you, how to use this Tester. 8-)
+ Added new Hardware Window. Now you can control PCI Lantency timer for your video card. Automaticaly apply value on start up and restore it after suspend/hibernate modes.
+ Added context sensitive help file (English version)
+ Improved installation. Now you can select Program Menu folder to shortcuts. When installing new version over previous one, new installation will automatically take path for Program Menu from old installation, and use it.
1.0.0.352
+ Timings now can be included in overclocking profiles.
+ Added option to associate color profile with Game Profile.
+ Added variable in atitray.ini to hide timings pages. (hide_timings)
+ Added confirmation dialog to replace profile, if profile with the same name already exists.
+ Added hot key Alt+R in Timing pages to reset timings.
+ Fixed bugs with Game Profile editing.
+ If ResfreLock enabled ATT will not ask for refresh rate when changing resolution.
+ Timings now dissabled for X800 series. Until I find more information.
+ Added support for X800 Platinum Edition
1.0.0.345
+ Fixed bug with "Support DXT Textures" option. If you have problems with textures in games just after installing ATT, please check "Support DXT Textures" option in Direct3D, and if it's off, turn it on.
+ Updated Hot Keys. Now some of hot keys (Load d3d/ogl profiles) will not work while you play any games, registered in ATT game profiles. Functionality will be restored after game finished.
1.0.0.344

dont_ask_rate=0 - if set 1 ATT will not ask to select refresh rate
select_max_refresh=0 - if set to 1 ATT will select maximum posible refresh rate for selected screen resolution, if dont_ask_rate=0, ATT will ignore this value
dont_wait=0 - if 1, ATT will not wait 10 seconds until apply selected screen resolution
1.0.0.336
+ Updated Game Pofile Name creation and fixed bug with creating shotrcuts. Now these chars / \ ? | " * < >, will be replased with underscope _. BTW. Starting from build 330, ATT can automaticaly detect started game, so you should not create any shortcuts, until you use "Auto Detect Starting Games" option.
