Water effects

Postby SkyNoz » Sun Aug 13, 2006 2:38 pm

Started playing the Demo, noticed that my water didn't have reflection even with the water settings on max.. Is there a different effect box that needs to be checked inorder to enable the water reflection's? or is my system just not up to par?

System specs:
1 gig ram
P2.66
Nividia GeForce 5500FX ;D
Project Kfir!

Is that video card DX9 compatible? If not, then that's your problem.

5500FX doesn't have the proper shaders.
