N00bishMacer Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 I myself am running a 4870 card in my hackintosh, and when l got Settlers 7 it had this included in the package. I did have some issues with the graphics producing some artifacts when playing video streams. I bit the bullet and installed this patch and the artifacts where reduced to almost zero and frame rates in all games where increased. This is an official update from ATI and it may help alot of you guys as well. The application itself updates the ATIRadeonX2000GLDriver in your /System/Library/Extensions/ From the information l have read about this update, is that it will be included in the 10.6.4 update from apple eventually. Readme in the application is as follows: ATI RADEON 10.6.3 HotFix Update Installer Restart required after installation. This software requires Mac OS X 10.6.3 Earlier Mac OS X versions are not supported by this installer. Please ensure your system is updated to the latest available BootRom and SMC.

cerfew Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 Is this only for the 4870? or for all ATI cards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N00bishMacer Posted May 22, 2010 Author Share Posted May 22, 2010 From my understanding this is a patch for the current released / Supported Radeon cards Apple use in there product range. So if your card is one of those cards or one people have got working in 10.6.3 then this will work for you. I myself didn't have to add any device id to it, because my current card's device id was already in it by default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
