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

Yep, the 7800 supports SM3.0 which the game requires. My systems not far off yours, Athlon XP 3000+ but with an ATI X850XT, this still plays some of the recent releases just fine so why drop support for SM2.0 is beyond me, unless they ported the textures straight off the 360 version and couldn't be arsed to recompile them?

As of right now the game is hardly worth playing. It may get alot better with updates, but I'm not sure. I have a good rig, and I have to lower almost all settings and disable HDR, AA and whatever to get a decent framerate. Let's hope for heavy improvements in the future.

I've got Ati Radeon x600/x550? Can I start the game or not? Does my graphic card supports that Sm 3.0 or not?

[Muyfa666]

No, it does not. I think X1600 is the lowest that has PS 3.0.
