Splinter Cell Double Agent

No, sorry. I mustn't. If Ubisoft has completely left out the PS 2.0 support, the chances for those ppl to get it running is right about none. This could be the biggest bomb in Ubisoft's history.

so there's not even a 1.1 option like CT? WTF ubisoft?!

No way that Ubisof will keep only Shader 3.0 supported. I think that sooner or later they will fix this mistake.

Have you read this (automated?) answer from Ubisoft?

"I understand your frustration, however there comes a time when you have to push the envelope to the next level when it comes to PC games. Splinter Cell: Double Agent is a "Next Gen" PC title.

Since you have voiced your concerns, I am able to offer you a special discount on your next game purchase. If you make your next Ubisoft game purchase from the Ubisoft online store (http://store.ubi.com), you can take up to $10 off and receive FREE shipping on the order."

No room for PS 2.0 in this answer... :-(

EDIT: For those interested, the V1.01 patch does not change the single player EXE, and works fine with the unprotected file.
Among other things (at a quick test) the patch adds a AA-option which looks VERY good along with HDR. :-D

Also the framrates seem alot better. This is a good patch indeed. :-)

Seems the unprotected EXE is just a loader, both Brothers In Arms games were similar too and so was FarCry If I recall right, all from Ubisoft!

Patch released 7/11, not sure if they added SM2 support or not though I haven't had time to try it.

hi all,
didnt think id be able to run this game with my system as the processor and mobo are pretty antiquated now. prob my grafix card that saves the day...here's my system setup :

AMD ATHLON XP2800+
ASUS A7V8X-X MOBO
1024MB DDR400 RAM
80GB SAMSUNG HD
GAINWARD 7800GS BLISS SILENT 512MB GRAFIX CARD ( EXCELLENT CARD)
ACER 19IN WIDESCREEN MONITOR WITH 8MS REFRESH

Loaded the game and applied the ubisoft no-dvd and game runs a treat maxed out. must be down to the gainward grafix card i guess.

cheers
