Re: Video card or driver doesn't support UBYTE4N vertex data.

The UBYTE4N is part of the software of a game that requires a "hardware" vertex shader. Many late model video cards have, let's say pixel shader 2.0 and and directX or the 3d-analyzer can give you (software version) vertex shader 2.0 or 3.0, but the newer games, specifically Call of Duty 4 requires a (video card) "hardware vertex shader 2.0".Bottom line is that you can emulate a software vertex shader but when the game requires a hardware vertex shader you can't. Must buy a new video card that has, preferably, built-in vertex shader 3.0 or might as well get the 4.0. You will need it one day, one game, sooner or later.

Re: Video card or driver doesn't support UBYTE4N vertex data.

Welcome to tsf pathfinder13. This problem is directly related to the videocard not being powerful or new enough to support the game. You will need to find a pc that meets the minimum video card spec.
