Maybe a dumb question, but is there a S.M 3.0 patch for UT2004?

How do I know if im playing UT2004 using SM 3.0? I think I have downloaded the lasted patch (3270 i think?) Would that have included it?

it barely uses any shaders let alone a patch for sm 3.0

OK, thanks

yes, for all the money thrown into the game, it doesn't even use SM 1.1 very much at all, and where it is used it provides only performance

Yeah but it has some incredible gameplay, so I could care less about graphics

it does not support SM 3.0

the engine is a T&L based engine, DX7

it does use a DX8.1 PS 1.4 shader for collapsing terrain passes, but that is all

That game is beautiful on even a GF4MX, it doesn't need sm3.0

UT seems to push a serious amount of geometry and high-res textures...but that's about it...
