3D error

from Demigod Forums

everytime i load the game it says failed to launch due to a 3D error

i have the latest drivers

im using an NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200, it has ran every other game that says i need higher cards without any problems

the actual problem it says is Hardware Based Instancing Required, Check to see if you have latest drivers

Not this time, sorry. Demigod requires a card which has Shader Model 3 support, first added in the Geforce 6 line. The listed minimum requirement is quite truly the minimum here.

Dang, thanks

I knew i would have to upgrade it sooner or later

Any suggestions for a better one

If you're using a Geforce 5 now, chances are the rest of your system is similarly dated and you won't have a PCI-E slot. So it'd probably be best to look into an entirely new machine if you want to play current games.
