    my computer video card said it wasn't compatible with games that use hardware T&L. it also says that I don't have a vertex shader. can anyone here send me a game that uses these hardware stuff alot? i'm not looking for an original game, just a test game that is anywhere below 300 mb. i am trying to test how much my computer will lag when the game uses hardware T&L or vertex shading

    if you don't have it then no games requiring it will run. there is no point in trying a 'test game'.

    but my brother bought me 3 PC games that require hardware T&L. are you telling me that neither of these games will work on my laptop (my brother is in america so he is sending them to me)? DAMMIT! but wait, the sims 2 double deluxe said that if your computer does not support hardware T&L then you will need pentium 4 with 2.00 GHZ. this just might work as I have intel core 2 duo

    hardware T&L cannot be emulated in software, if you do not have it the game will NOT run. get a better computer or sell the games.

    I remember using a program that allow you to....how to say it....
    "Trick" the game so it looks like you have a T\L and Pixel and Vertex Shader and allow you to play the game.

    Not all games can be played, mostly just old games that use Pixel Shader 1.1, and the graphics are messed up.

    It's better to get a better Graphic Card.
