Transparent textures not transparent - AdamK47 - 01-15-2012

Any texture that is supposed to have a bit of transparency to it is a solid texture. The leaves on the plants in pots, the flower petals, and the feater on the quill pen are a few I've noticed so far.
I recently purchased an AMD HD7970 and am using Catalyst driver 11.12 version 8.921.2-120104a-131222E-ATI

The v11.12 drivers do not list the 7000 series in the release notes. You should try downloading and installing the hotfix.

These are the drivers I'm using.

Then i can only suggest waiting for the 12.01 drivers (it should be out soon, unless they decide on 12.02) and see if things get fixed then.

Just tried various drivers released this month. 8.93, 8.94, and 8.95 have the same problem with transparent textures. The transparent textures over the doors are the most obvious ones with the problem in the game. It looks like whatever tweaks they are doing for Rage are breaking things for this game.

I posted this on the Guru3D forums. Someone else with a 5870 also has this same problem.
