Directx 9 software/vertex shader emulator

[vasa.sniper]

Hello everyone!!
I want to ask-I heard (from a friend of mine) that there is a way to run DX9 games on "old" graphics cards, that doesn't have vertex and pixel shaders like nVIDIA GeForce 2....Is it true??How can I do it??

Thanx a lot in advance!!

Vertex shaders can be emulated at a decent speed, but pixel shaders can't. I think the game has to be programmed to use the CPU for vertex shader operations, I don't think you can just force it.

1. Install DirectX Debug (not retail), included in SDK.
2. Your software needs to be programmed to support the DX SDK Debug.
