Nice effect!

For those of you who don't know what bloom is, wikipedia has a great article [1].

doesn't work here with nvidia 175.16

Just tested, with SVN, on a Radeon 9600... it failed. Big surprise, I'm sure it's using some GLSL stuff that the Radeon's too old for. And meh, we don't want the performance hit of doing it the slow way.

More testing when I get back home...

nvida 7600 GT
175 16 Drivers
Bloom not working (black screen instead)

hmm try restarting, and dont download all the bloom shaders just one or the will all be active on the same time, 8600gt newest driver, works perfect here

try the other ones, maybe they will work

I doubt it, it's all using GLSL, which IIRC, the 9600 won't run. It's all right though, I don't really expect the 9600 to run this kind of thing anyhow.

It's working fine on my nvidia 7600 GS, drivers 169.12

I have 9600GT (and) 7600 GTX. Fails on the 7600, but the 9600 it runs like a dream.

Also my 21" crt supports 2 svga inputs (win!)

nice, im switching to 9600GT in a few weeks:)

So is there a way to fix it on 7600 cards?

None of them works for me. I allways get "combine compilation failed"
I got a ATI Mobility Radeon X1600

Man this game is really

works fine on a 8800 gt

a bit fps hungry but can still keep in a playable range with all settings max + shadows + decals + bloom

but ud expect bloom to eat ur fps anywayz :D
