ATI cannot make working video drivers

[Ket]

To implement LOD bias clamping in driver (like NVIDIA has done for ages), all ATI developers would have to do is to add the following 3 lines of code:

if (lod_clamp) { // if the user sets "negative LOD bias" to "clamp" via CCC
    if (lod_bias < 0.0f) { // and if LOD bias passed by the game is < 0.0
        lod_bias = 0.0f; // set it to 0.0
    }
}

Thats not reverse engineering the ATI driver, its a simple script.
