Shader Model requirement? - Wyrd - 04-07-2007

What shader model is required to run the game? My 9800 Pro doesn't support SM3.

it requires SM2.0 if i recall correctly

It uses OpenGL it is not really comparable to shaders models (which is a Direct3D term).

The minimum requirement is something like shader model 1.1, but that is just a crude esstimation.

From what i've seen, turning "shader details" to low makes all kinds of shaders obsolete, game looks dull and ugly, no kind of lighting at all but besides blurring (which can be turned off too) no shaders present (theoretically)

Correct me if i'm wrong Smile

I'm running the game on a Shader 1.4 video card just fine. I have it set to medium shader detail.
