Yeah, Radeonpro has all the game options available in CCC (except maybe overclocking - I'm talking about things like Vsync, AA, whether crossfire is enabled, etc.) and many more besides. Plus, if you set up individual game profiles through it, they work with the profiles in CAPS. If you set up an individual game profile in CCC, it overwrites the CAPS profile for that game (kind of stupid).

How To Boost Your Frame Rate or FPS By Using RadeonPro's AA Injectors
- Thread starter Protomize
- Start date
I downloaded this lastnight and had a little play,I have a few questions which I'm hoping maybe answered by more knowledgeable people and people who have been using this program for awhile.
1. global settings is this a general setting for all games instead of individual profiles for each game? Or do you have to make a profile for every game? I also noticed that before I made profiles for games when I played a game when just global settings where set the osd did not come up any reason for this is it that radeo pro is not active (As I don't really see the point in different profiles for each and every game when I'm going to use the same settings for all Smaa and dynamic vsync)
2. Is there a button to hide the osd?(the one that shows gpu temp clocks and so on)
3. Is there any benefit/worth the performance hit in running Smaa alongside say mxaa?
4. Anyone have any recommended settings for best graphics? (Running a 7950 1150/1450 i5 2500k @4.4ghz)
5. Is there much benefit/need to make radeon pro to change the aero setting to basic for windows display?
Thankyou Chris

I couldn't get SMAA to work at all in F1 2012. Things like the overlay and dynamic V-Sync are fine, but if I disable AA in the game (which I understand is correct) then the RadeonPro settings don't take effect
How can u tell?
1. dunno
2. Go into Settings > Advanced and you can set there keyboard shortcuts to turn on/off the OSD and injectors etc.
3. I doubt you'll see any difference but if you have buckets of fps!
4. dunno
5. No. It apparantly has some issues. Best to do it via the game .exe file. Right click > properties > compatibility tab and tick Disable desktop composition.
Everything is jaggy and looks crap?
Think I'll go without, I don't have issues running anything pretty much at maximum so I don't see it being "essential".

ive found out that u can link all your games to one profile if you wish by adding your games to triggers each trigger is a ptha for your game so u can add as many as you wish ive just add all my games to the trigger menu so one profile activates for all my games.
any info from the above that anyone could provide would be much welcomed at the mo my settings are:
visual
anti alising ticked with overide application settings chosen x4
smaa ticked ultra selected
ambient oclusion ticked hbao selected ultra selected
anti alising ticked multisampling(box) chosen
tesselation control ticked 4x chosen
advanced
all boxes ticked
texture filtering ticked set on high
mip map ticked set on high
texture LOD ticked set to -0.4
tweaks
vsync control set to dynamic
60hz refresh rate
disable aero ticked
sweet fx enabled (do i have to add files or something for this?)
launcher set to steam
does this seem okay? is there anything more i should do? should i set things higher like tesselation and and anti alising above 4x?
anything ive missed?
oh im running a 7950 wf3,i5 2500k @4.4ghz
1. Yes. Global settings will apply to all games. I believe there's a setting that means it applies only to games for which there exists a profile already, but that's not the default.
Any changes made in individual profiles will override whatever you have in global.
In my global, I tend to have lots of "leave as application", and make changes just in individual profiles.
2. I am not using the current beta. The old version doesn't have the OSD displayed by default, so there will be a way to switch it off. Look for a button along the top of the main window labelled Preferences or Settings.
3. I doubt it. One or the other, I'd expect, though I'm no expert.
4. This will vary from game to game. Note though, it's always best to change settings within game, and use CCC or RadeonPro for those settings that aren't easily tweaked within the game, or for features the game doesn't support (like adaptive VSync). With your rig, I'd suggest just turning every setting to maximum in every game you play, and then only if you are having performance problems with the odd game, start turning them down.
5. That's one global setting I always have on. With your card, it's unlikely you'll need it, but if Windows decides its running low on video memory, it'll drop you back to desktop with a dialog to switch aero off. So best avoid that problem before it starts.
Well at the mo I have the setup listed above to run on every single game just to clarify from what you have said above you think it's better to use the built in Smaa,mxaa and anti Alising built into the game than it is to use radeon pro's injector method? And to really only use radeon pro's settings when the games don't have support for the anti Alising methods radeon pro has?
Sorry for all the question's just trying to get best graphical performance I can.
I found that with global settings set up it didn't activate when playing games especially regarding the osd hence why I linked all games to one profile.
I have been suffering with screen tear very badly especially with max Payne 3 and metro 2033 but since installing radeon pro and applying dynamic v sync (with the other settings) these games are now running lovely and smooth the screen tearing really had to start to annoy me now the games play as I feel they should.
I have noticed though since using the smaa and other settings (don't know which is doing it) the text in games is a lot more blurry and so is the steam overlay is this something that is normal and we have to deal with or?why does this happen?

Either or should give relatively similar results. If the game allows you to use MSAA. I recommend to turn it all the way down and inject SMAA from RadeonPro. That way you can get roughly similar image quality as MSAA at 4x without the performance hit.
Your problem is that you are piggybacking SMAA and FXAA, which causes you text to become blurry. Turn off FXAA and only utilize SMAA.
Thanks for the reply I shall check fxaa is not running I know I'm not using it in radeon pro and I'm pretty sure it's not active in the games though but I will check when I finish work.
Ah, I tried to do a similar thing with Unigine Heaven 3.0 to see how much I can raise the FPS by removing the MSAA and injecting the benchmark with SMAA. Turns out the launcher for the benchmark is a batch file as well. I couldn't get it to work. Maybe there is away that someone else has figured out?
it did have both running not sure why fxaa runs with smaa as i have fxaa disabled but when i disabled it it was beeter but ont he main screen of max payne 3 i toggled smaa on and off as soon as it was on the writing went a little blurry when off the writing was crisp and nicer why is this surely it should be the other way round!lol
Hey, it can happen.
I'd like to know this too as I'm sitting around 45 - 55 fps with some choppyness once the chopping starts.
I found the exe by searching the directory for .exe and found it under J:\Games\Steam\steamapps\common\chivalrymedievalwarfare\Binaries\Win32 as UDK.exe
Turning vsync off in-game seems to make absolutely no difference though and it's always capped at 60fps for me.
