3rd Party utilita pro zprovoznění CrossFire v nepodporovaných nebo problémových hrách pomocí profilů (obdoba nHancer)
Tato Utilita si podle mého zaslouží vlastní téma neboť s každou novou verzí se dále zdokonaluje.

Description:Requirements:
- Ever ran into a problem where you could not use your big, multiple ATI GPU setup on a new game? Don't worry, many people have had the same issue, and up until now, the only solution was to wait for an updated build of the Catalyst drivers, which usually takes over a month! Now, that problem has a solution! ATI CrossFire Xtension allows you to create custom profiles that will force CrossFire (ATI multi-GPU solution) support on non-supported, or new, games and applications. Remember, this is only a temporary solution for CrossFire problems, as ATI themselves must update drivers to have true proper CrossFire support for new games. While you wait the month long period (or longer) for ATI to update their drivers, you can use this tool to use CrossFire without waiting, right now, on your new games.
This program also allows you to force video quality settings, and CrossFire mode, such as anti-aliasing, anisotropic filtering, and AFR, SPR, ST, SPAA. These settings do not need "Force CrossFire" to be enabled.Instructions:
- Microsoft .NET Framework v2.0 (minimum)
- Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Runtime (usually also required for CCC installation)
- An non-CrossFire supported Direct3D/OpenGL game (usually)
- Two or more ATI graphics cards (dual-GPU on single PCB counts)
- Windows XP/Vista/Seven (32-bit or 64-bit)
- ATI Catalyst 9.4 or above recommended!
*Notes:
- Extract the program to its own folder, then run the program. Add a game/application to the program to create a profile for that game/application. Be sure to select the correct rendering method! If you aren't sure which one your game uses, you can always check Google! Then, launch the game by selecting, then double-clicking the game, or click the Launch button. Your profile settings will be saved upon quitting the program, or you can manually save by hitting the Save button. The profile will be saved as "ATI_CF_Xtension.ini" in the same folder.
- As of v1.1, you can now select which pre-defined CrossFire profile to use! If you aren't sure what to do with this drop-down list, leave it at the default name, as it should work fine in most situations.
- As of v1.2, you can now pass arguments to the target application (optional).
- If you do not know what you're doing with the "pre-defined profile" option, leave it at default, just select the correct rendering method (Direct3D or OpenGL)!
- As of v1.3, you can now force anisotropic filtering and anti-aliasing on any specific application.
- As of v1.4, you can now change CrossFire method!
Enjoy!

Revision History:
Stahujte: ATI_CF_Xtension (85KB)Changes in v1.4This version brings back the ability to change CrossFire method! Some older games operate better with different CrossFire methods other than Alternate Frame Rendering (AFR), for example: America's Army. With America's Army, the latest ATI Catalyst drivers assumes AFR mode, and neglects the heavy flickering that occurs during gaming. With ATI CrossFire Xtension v1.4, you can now force the driver to use another method (such as Split-Frame Rendering, Supertiling, or SuperAA mode).
- Added ability to change CrossFire method (Auto, AFR, SPR, Supertiling, SuperAA)
- Fixed program naming when "Force CrossFire" option is unchecked
Enjoy!
