صدر التعريف الجديد من AMD والذي يتضمن تحديث للـ Mantle لمستخدمي بطاقات AMD. رقم التعريف هو AMD Catalyst 14.2 V1.3 Beta وهو بحجم 286MB ويمكنك من تحميله من هنا.

طبعا تضمن التعريف إصلاحات ودعم لعدد من الأمور وهي:

  • Compute shader-accelerated depth of field for realistic focal lengths
  • Silhouette-enhancing tessellation to improve character geometry
  • Complex shadowing systems to support THIEF’s dependence on shadows as a core gameplay mechanic. This is a great example of rendering technology supporting an integral element of the game! A notable percentage of the game’s rendering budget has been spent on the novel shadowing algorithms.
  • SSAA for buttery smooth edges
  • Hangs and stuttering resolved for the Mantle codepath in Battlefield 4; users are now encouraged to try mGPU
  • Multi-GPU frame pacing in Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4 is now enabled for non-XDMA configurations running resolutions >1600p.
  • We fixed Minecraft! Sorry about that, builders J
  • Intermittent hangs and crashes should be resolved in 3D applications
