Hi all, I need help. Just got the Steam version.

When I launch the DirectX9 or DirectX10 version on STEAM and I get the error:

ERR06 : Unsupported pixel shader version detected. 2.0

What shall I do?

Well, anybod?

Hell, I paid some 40 $ to get a FATAL ERROR.  The game does not even start!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Again, what shall I do?

Your video card is not supported.  You need a card that can do at least Shader Model 3.0.  THere are a TON of threads on this topic already.

Hell. Great. Well.

I don't even know anything about PIXEL SHADER.  Why should I know about version 2 or 3 ???

I bought my Sony Desktop PC less than one year ago.  So.

I purchased GForce 8600 GTS last night and hell now it rocks.  Seeing the game now I am like :eek:  all the time.

But one question remains:

Why the hell could they not create meaningful error messages????  Like "Update your Grafic Card." or something??? 

I was like :mad:  and super-:eek:-irritated with that "Fatal Error" message.

Ridiculous.

i have windows vista, cable internet,  and 19" monitor, when i launched lost planet extreme condition from steal i get a fatal error: unsupported pixel shader.
plus i had to install the game which took 24 hrs.... that suks..
after the fatal error, i get a 2nd error that says lostplanetdx9.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.

i do not have a $150.00 to go out and buy another video card after paying allot of money to buy the game... so i am just gonna refund my money at the store...

you don't need to spend $150 to get a card with pixel shader 3.0. there are many cards under $100 that have pixel shader 3.0. i know the ati x1000 series and above have it and i think the nvidia 7000 series and above have it. and i think a few in the 6000 series do too.
