OpenGL 2 support on Catalyst hotfix.

[^Fishman]

Someone at Rage3D discovered that this drivers which come as a fix for Call of Duty supports OpenGL 2(which is sad in a way because the drivers for registered developers are OLD). So I tested them with the tools in http://www.3dlabs.com/support/develo...oads/index.htm and it works on my Radeon 9700 Pro. Here is some info about the drivers.

Now people, start writing OpenGL 2 applications :P

I've waited this day for so long! yeahhhh

[PanzerSchreck]

Noticed that too earlier this morning and already wrote my first glSlang-Demo in Delphi...so now on to some selfmade shaders

[azazello]

is it stable enought?
I just know, that in September/2003 it was near 80% functionality of GLSlang.

[Ostsol]

Woot! Thanks for the info!

[soconne]

Oh dear god, i've died and gone to heaven. OpenGL Shading Language !!!!!!!!

[3k0j]

Great! Now, let's make up our minds how should we call it <edit> </edit>

GLslang, glSlang, OGLSL, GLSL, OpenGL 2, OpenGL 1.5 or DireActAxe9-killer ?

glSlang... I like the way it sounds...
nvidia... you can't do it to me! what a shame...

[Korval]

Interesting. However, considering that this isn't an official driver release, I wouldn't suggest relying on glslang support. It might be a bit flakey.

In addition, the fact that they put it into a hotfix probably means that it is almost done, and will be avaliable in the Cat3.10's. May as well wait for the bugs to be worked out.

I've downloaded 3dlabs compiler and run the demos for glslang and they run just fine without crashing. I'm gonna mess around with it this weekend, but so far no problems.
