Pretty obvious, get yourself a better graphics card.

the shaders wont work for me =/
ATI Radeon Xpress 1250

The shaders wont work on ATI Radeon x700

*sigh*

Can you people please read the previous posts in this thread before telling us that shaders don't work? There are two things that you can do to try and get shaders to work, which are as follows:

1. Turn off some of the options - specifically Liquid Blood, Soft Shadows and Reflections. This can help problems with shaders.
2. Buy a graphics card that supports OpenGL 2 shading. If your current card doesn't support OpenGL 2, then you can't use shaders. Simple as.
3. Also read the entirety of the first post on this thread and see if anything that Stilf has suggested helps.

GeForce 7300 GS
Help.


ooopss - now everything works!

This is how i got it to work:

I had to turn all the options off (reflection, fluid blood, skip frames and soft shadows) hit enter, go back into options then enable shaders and it should work. You can then go in and enable the other options except soft shadows, for me as soon as you enable that it turns off.

Also make sure you have any older versions uninstalled, this only worked after i uninstalled an earlier version.

edit:

Oh i have an ATI 9600+ XT Overdrive on Windows XP SP2

i have ati mobilty radeon 9700 why i cant enable shaders

my shaders just don't work... Eliteo0 says that I have a bad graphics card.

Then that's probably it. What graphics card do you have?

My file called "stderr" has all this crap in it. Can someone help?
