I am wondering.
Is there a limit to how many fallback techniques I can have?
I'd like the main technique to be for ps2.0 and vs 2.0, then a fallback for ps1.4 and vs1.1 and a fallback for FFP to just display the texture normally.

it seems to me no limit.
it's exactly what I'm doing in my project.
-technique for 2.0
-technique for 1.3 or 1.1
-technique for FFP
all in one *.fx, when i made 'compile vs/ps 3.0'(my hardware dosn't support it) in first technique, ehgine use next automatically.
Sorry for late answer and bad english - I just registered in the forum and i'm not englishman.
