I finally installed the toolset with many problems and I think I got the database working correctly, however when I run the DragonAgeToolset.exe I recieve an unhandled win32 exception.

I looked in the log files and saw this inside Engine_dll_1.log

Has anyone else run into this problem?

Here is the content of my DragonAgeToolset_2009_12_30.log file which I fould less interesting. The connection failed data is from past attempts when I didn't have the database running properly:

This may help, but I'm unable to confirm it as valid at this point.  ATI stopped updating the drivers for all but the X850 fairly early on compared to past procedures.  I suspect it was because of the split on DX9, in which the Xn00 cards didn't have the "entire" Dx9.0c pixel shader functionality.  Of course, the X850 had that same omission, but when Bioware tested X800s, the drivers did not mesh with the game. 

Only the small textures are available, in any case. 

The Omega drivers do continue support for the X800 into far more recent catalyst versions.  Give those a try, and remember not to try to use Medium or Large textures.

At this point I can't even start the Toolset, So if there's some setting in a file I can set or some other workaround for this that would be great. I'll try using the Omega drivers, unless someone else posts another workaround.



Thanks,

I disabled the Graphics Module and the toolset started, with no rendering.



There are only options for normal and high texture packs - which makes me believe that I am not going to be able to use this tool unless I upgrade my video card. - oh well.
