i remember reading a list of cards compatible with this,but i can't find it now and don't remember where i found it exactly.can someone give me the link to it?sorry if i'm on the wrong board btw.i'm doing some laptop shopping and want to get one that's compatible with this (my family have a desktop i can do stuff with too,but it's a little screwed up at the moment =/ ).i'm well aware that a desktop would be better suited to this,but i'm planning on getting a laptop for other reasons and i'd like to use this with it too (if/when i get the full version).also,how long is that $30 special going to last? i may get it soon if i can

if your buying the FPSCX10 its in the X10 board (sticky)

as for the normal FPSC, pretty much any graphics card 2005 onwards should work (at least without shaders)

why not download the trail?

Just about any graphics card that supports Shader Model 2.0 and Direct X 9 should work for FPSC x9.
Don't quote me on this: I think FPSC also requires Hardware Transform and Lighting.
Note that most pre-X3100 Intel chipsets will not support Hardware T&L.

Just about any Geforce 6xxx+ or ATI Radeon 9700+ should work even though they may not work well.

The ATI Radeon 3200 is quite good for Fps Creator X10. Just turn down some of the settings.
