Fixing slow selection problem with ATI cards May 20, 2009, 2:25 a.m.

checked on Radeon HD 4870x2 (Vista x64)
All works perfect!

I don't use any existing profile for this values. I'm find it by some calculations.

P.S. Don't forget to fix atiogl.xml after new drivers installation…

hoho…

I'm sorry guys…
z-axis handle really does not work with this trick…
I noticed it only after reading schyzomaniac post.

But perhaps we will solve this problem, if you try to use the following values:

<ProfileHoudini>
<OpenGLCaps>0x000083F4</OpenGLCaps>
<OpenGLCapsEx>0x00000000</OpenGLCapsEx>
</ProfileHoudini>


With this values selection and handles works fine on my Radeon HD 3650 AGP (Win XP SP3 & ATI Catalyst 9.3 agp fix).
Tomorrow I will check this trick on my Radeon HD 4870x2 (Vista x64).

P.S. Please specify the names of models for your video cards.

Good luck

Hello all!
I have two PC's with ATI Radeon cards… Radeon HD 4870x2 (Windows Vista x64) and Radeon HD 3650 AGP (Windows XP Pro SP3/Windows 7 RC). Both of them had seen the same problem. When the polygons in the model became more than 2k selection of components becomes very slow. At the same time on computers with geforce cards all works excellent. After week of finding a solution to this problem, the answer I did not find one.
However, the decision was found, and I want to share it with all who have a similar problem arose.
Here is my way:
1) Go to C:\Windows and open file atiogl.xml with your favrite text editor.
2) Find this peace of code:

<!– Houdini –>
<ProfileHoudini>
<OpenGLCaps>0x00008008</OpenGLCaps>
<OpenGLCapsEx>0x00000000</OpenGLCapsEx>
</ProfileHoudini>


3) Replace this lines with code from some other profile. I'm use Softimage XSI profile and all works perfect:

<!– Houdini –>
<ProfileHoudini>
<OpenGLCaps>0x20008000</OpenGLCaps>
<OpenGLCapsEx>0x00000400</OpenGLCapsEx>
</ProfileHoudini>



I hope this information will be useful
