Some graphical glitches in the new Thief game and Invisible War- namely, the
line between light and shadow occasionally flickers from a smooth gradient
(as it should look) to a hard-edged line (as it shouldn't).

9700 non-Pro, Omega 4.5s, not OC'ed. Rest of system is XP 2600+ @ 166 x
13.5, 512Mb DDR333, etc.

Is it likely to be a driver issue?
 
the 4.4s are the drivers to use with Thief 3 - the 4.5s and 4.6s cause
lighting /shadow glitches.
 
Also, there is an interesting tweak posted on www.ttlg.com forums that alter
the properties of cast shadows so they are exponential instead of linear in
nature. I haven't tried this yet, but it seems like a great idea to me.

As a follow up - I got a 9700 non pro today and installed the 4.4s - both
TDS and Far Cry (my current fun) run flawlessly. For £60 through Ebay Im a
happy bunny.
