Aum 57 levelbump - 08/02/07 15:35
Tried the levelbump level from aum 57 and all i see when i run it is black with some swirls where the wall texture is suppose to be.
Before you ask i have a
Nividia GeForce FX5200 256mb pure T&L card with the most up to date drivers i can find.
Any ideas why i can't see the wall texture.?

Maybe your graphics card doesn't support shaders? Or says it does, but not really.

Could be.? Anyone know a good card that does, that won't kill the budget?

I bought an "ATI Radeon X1300 Gecube" with 256 MB RAM and Shader Model 3.0
for round about 80 €...
mabe that would be sth.?

Would be a good choice or a Nvidia equivalent off course, but for the mid-range directx 9 cards 80€ (100$ or so?) seems about right. It would not make sense to buy a dx10 budget card if your pc is very old, but those are also around 100$, what kind of system do you have at the moment?
Cheers

ok, problem not quite solved. The material works in that test level(which is nothing more than a cube, but when i apply that same texture and material to my outdoor level, it just becomes a big white blob. any ideas why it will work in the tesy level and not a outdoor level?

You need to edit a few more things; please read the explanations at the end of the article in Aum57. Anyway, I wouldn't recommend this effect for a full sized level; if you use models for your level you'll get a greater frame rate and a better looking game.

he was wrong and nvidia lied about the ability of the fx5200 card because the shaders wouldn't show
