Will Amnesia use shaders 5.0, 4.0 or 3.0?
RE: Shaders - Thomas - 08-01-2010
It uses OpenGL so there is not really any 100% equivalent. But generally speaking it requires shader model 2 and has a few shader model 3 stuff (mostly dynamic branching).

In the darkness, you don't need beautyful graphics because you did not see it really.
But high-res textures are an important thing in all games.
Thomas, what kind of shading does Penumbra use?
Is it right that you have created the hpl engine? Mainly alone?
Big respect for that!
