Shader Version Test Patch

hi all,

to test which shader versions are valid on your card download this patch:
ShaderVersionTest.zip (2.04 Kb)

then please copy your result and paste it in this thread like:

graphics card:
ATI Radeon 9000 Mobility

Compiled:
Yes

Shader:
Fixed Function
Vertex Shader 1.0
Vertex Shader 1.1
Pixel Shader 1.0
Pixel Shader 1.1
Pixel Shader 1.2
Pixel Shader 1.3
Pixel Shader 1.4

Hi,

I tried the shader tester. It says:
compiled (this should be one) : 0.000
a list of shaders (fixed function; vertex shader 1 through 3; pixel shader 1 through 3)
and a big box (“your graphics card supports”), which is entirely blank
This is the same with any graphics card I use.

I don’t really understand what this means.
Why is “compiled” 0.000?
Why is “your graphics card supports” blank?
How do I use the shader tester?

Best regards
Peggy

Hi,

thank you for supplying this patch. I already wondered if my graphics card would do vertex and pixel shader 3.0. Looks like it does.
