"Unable to start the game

Device 0 can not run this title
Your video cad does not appear to support atleast Shader Model 2. Please upgrade your card"

Re: 3D Analize settings for Sims 3

Hi and welcome to TSF.

You probably do not meet the minimum requirements to run the game.

Can you please post your full system specs?

Re: 3D Analize settings for Sims 3

And that's probably the reason is using 3DAnalyze. >_<
Just play with the Shaders options on the program, nothing much you can do actually.

Although by just a little more than the price of Sims3 you could get a low-end graphics card that supports Shaders.

Re: 3D Analize settings for Sims 3

3D analyze is now an old program it'll work on some old games but now on newer games
there are games that you can't force the shader to 2.0 or 1.1 cause it'll crash or will give a screen full of dots
so if your PC can't run the game, 3D analyzer won't help you run it
I won't use it anyway it's unstable and can lead to damage your PC

Re: 3D Analize settings for Sims 3

Oh 3d analyze is one those programs. Programs for people who won't or can't afford to upgrade their PC. I would only run software that my computer is capable of running.
