Your video card does not have the required hardware shaders built in. You will have to upgarde video cards to play BIA.

Try downloading this program, 3d Analyze, then use the option to emulate pixel shading. I haven't gotten it to work, but for me the game doesn't even run, although I've heard of other people getting it to work with this program. I'm trying to figure out whats wrong with mine... maybe you can get it to work and fill me in Smile

Here's the program: http://www.tommti-systems.de/main-Dateien/TOOLS/dontlin..._3danalyzer-v236.exe

Yes, if anyone has had any luck with the 3da program would love to hear about it. I have tried various options, but have not cracked it yet. A true challenge.

you can buy a video card. its that simple. i guess you could try hacking it with that program, but it really boils down to the simple fact of you needing a GPU

I have the same problem, I just bought BiA today and I saw the ubi and gearbox thing but when the menu came It was black and I could hear the music.However I guessed my way someone how and i got the game to start a loading screen, first one has legget on it and 2 other guys...the red loading thing goes all the way to the end and doesnt finish?? Wierd eh? anywho even though the loading screen stays there I hear what going on "HEY BAKER!! I think he's coming to! and so on, then after i fiddle around without knowing what im doing and a secon load screen starts i see a plane and matt baker in his parachute. The same thing happens I hear "STAND UP and blah blah blah" then I hear baker touch the ground and i start fiddling with controls and i can hear him jump run but no shooting, i guess you dont start with weapons? I dont know I cant see anything except the loading screen, anywho I was wondering, Im taking it i need a new video card aswell, i have umm Nvidiageforce 4 i believe, something better would be what? and also even if i get the video card does it have anything to do with the fact that i figure out a way to load the levels hear them but the red line wont go all the way and the loading screen stays there? thanks in advance for any info
