Download AMD Radeon Software Crimson ReLive Edition 18.1.1 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. AMD just released their Radeon Adrenalin Edition 18.1.1 driver, this driver is not to be confused with the earlier released Alpha driver, this is not the official one. AMD Fixed some older DX9 titles as well as introducing new fixes.
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.
Introducing Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition, artfully designed and meticulously crafted to unleash the powerful performance and innovation built into Radeon Graphics through an incredibly intuitive and utterly beautiful user interface for both PCs and mobile devices.

Wonder whats changed from the 18.1.1 alpha. Honestly I have been running that and its be really stable. Only the overlay for Freesync, Ichill etc sometimes acts up and doesnt wanna show up. But it still works.

Yeah pretty much what AMD does is Soon ™. i really hope they fix RX Vega by enable tech that was disable in the first place, it's been Five months RX Vega is out & it's still disable.
18.1.1 Alpha is very stable, no issues here. I hope AMD release it today since it's already on there servers, maybe they testing the driver one last time if some bug pop up.

From how I remember AMD needs the download URL referral to be to their website which has to be done via extensions, I believe DownThemAll had a way to set that information so the file could be downloaded outside of the AMD website but I kinda forgot how it had to be set up since it was a long time ago.
EDIT: HTTP://WWW2.ATI.COM I'm guessing.
