Electricity shader on recent nvidia cards

has some of you shader maniacs an idea why the old electricity shader doesnt work on recent (geforce 570/560) cards but on an old geforce 8800gtx.

the shader compiles just fine on both system but does its magic only on the old card.

ok solved…filetexture lost its volume texture setting. haha

I’m getting this on my NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460M. Any help?

change the texture type in filetexture to a volume texture

thanks, solved!!
