The marine career takes place on the planet.

The planet engine in UC requires a pixel shader.

Does your graphics card have a pixel shader?

Demos are unsupported and you're on your own, regardless.

And while you're at it, we have demos for all our games; you are better off saying which demo you are trying to run.

Sorry, I have the Ultimate Combat Demo. Im running on Windows XP, with an AMD Athlon 1900+. My graphics card is an S3 Graphics Prosavage+Utilites. I also have DirectX 9. I had another question also. Are there any problems with running the game on an ATI card? I have another computer and I was planning on getting an ATI 2600 Card or 2900.

PLEASE SOMEONE HELP!!!! I have the UC demo. ive tried running it on an Nvidia Riva TNT2, and an S3 Prosavage+utilites. I put the Assets fix in the GFX folder (When i got the assets fix, should I have just put the Assests file in the GFX folder, or unzip the assets and add the pics to the old assets?). When I tried it on the Nvidia, i walked around for 5 seconds, then the whole game shut down. It does the same thing when I try to enter the Config. Menu also. Is anyone else having the same problems? Can SOMEBODY,ANYBODY HELP!!!!!! I want to get this fixed so I can buy the full game.

It won't run on ANY of those cards. Maybe you should have read the docs included with the demo?
