Download AMD Radeon Software Crimson ReLive Edition 18.1.1 Alpha driver. Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition, designed to give gamers deeply immersive gameplay and inspired by today’s era of social, connected gaming. This early access driver is being provided for users who have had issues launching a small number of DirectX 9 based games. This alpha driver has not been fully tested by AMD and is not recommended for general use.
The Adrenalin drivers seem to have caused issues with a handful of 10-year old games running on the older DirectX 9 API and a growing number of people are complaining about the fact that AMD hasn't done and isn't doing anything to address the issues. Some of the games affected are crashing at startup: C&C3 Tiberium Wars, C&C3 Kane's Wrath, C&C Red Alert 3, C&C Red Alert 3 Uprising, C&C4 Tiberian Twilight, Battle for Middle Earth 1-2 and Witcher Enhanced Edition.
We have a discussion thread open on these drivers right here. We also have a background article ready for this driver which you may read, right here. Let me re-iterate that this is classified as an Alpha driver, not even Beta!
Package Contents
The Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition 18.1.1 Alpha installation package contains the following:
- Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition 18.1.1 Alpha Driver Version 17.50.07.02 (Windows Driver Store Version 23.20.15007.2002)

Does what it says, nothing really noteworthy in the .INF or the .BLB after comparing with 17.12.2 but it's good to see this fixed although I'll wait for the next driver since this is still a work in progress.
17.50.07.02 instead of 17.50.07.01 for the driver version and from January 4th.
And the driver .dll is .2002 instead of 23.20.15007.1005

Do we ever had an Alpha version of any driver before?

Yes, there were few drivers labeled as "alpha", even in time of ATI and now under AMD brand.

As always, thanks for the update, but my trust for AMD has reached a new low.
