    After getting my new laptop and remembering this demo, I wanted to run it because it was pretty cool looking. For 2004, it still looks great.
     
    Too bad I can't run it. People at the ATI forums suggested to use settings in 3DAnalyze and it still didn't work. Here is my error message from the log text
     
    "WARNING: HLSL compiler (fxc.exe) wasn't able to compile vertex shader 'CGVProgLightTempl_VS30'"
     
    Specs:  
    • Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
    • AMD Turion X2 M500 2.2GHZ
    • ATI Radeon HD4200 256MB
    • 4GB RAM
     
    EDIT: I found a solution and it runs like shit. I will test around some configs. Apparently my graphics board doesn't work well with any anti-aliasing. Now runs a lot better.
