    Hi, so I have installed Warhammer Online into my Parallels side, and whenever i load it crashed with a critical error. From reading around, i found this in my Logs folder inside my Warhammer folder:

    [20:19:25.513]:OS Version: Windows XP With Service Pack 3
    [20:19:25.513]:Adapter: [Direct3D HAL]
    [20:19:25.513]:[Driver Version 6.14.0.9] [WHQL Certified: Yes] [VendorID: 10de (100)]
    [20:19:25.513]:Video Memory: 20mb
    [20:19:25.513]:processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T8300 @ 2.40GHz: 2394
    [20:19:25.513]:Number of CPU Cores: 1
    [20:19:25.513]:SSE Supported: Yes
    [20:19:25.513]:System Ram: 1507 mb
    [20:19:25.513]:pixel Shader: 1 Vertex Shader 1: FAILS min specs, requires version 2

    Previously the Ram was the problem, so i upped that. Now it tells me i need Pixel Shader 2 / Vertex Shader 2. I then again looked around and read about Directx. Downloaded this, installed it but it doesnt update it.

    My question is, is there anyway i can get Pixel Shader 2 and Vertex Shader 2 into my parallels side?

    I was not able to find it under there.

    This game was only released last week so that may be the reason

    Unfortunately in this case it is not tested and probably you will not be able to run it
    Put it in game requests thread

    Ok, is there no way to update my parallels to support Pixel shader 2 and vertex shader 2?

    When you say it is not possible in this currect version, will the next version released have these?

    Ummmm.... It's been a few months since this post... Is there an ETA now? I'm trying to play Prince of Persia (2008) without luck. I think it's Shader 2.0 related -- and I can't find any specifics in the configuration area to set it, so I assume Pixel Shader 2.0 is set by default... but how will I know when/if Vertex Shader 2.0 becomes available?
