What is shader model 2 for the sims 3?

In: The Sims 3 [Edit categories]

Answer:

Shader Model 2 is a feature on your graphics card. As graphics cards get newer, they support newer "Shader Models" which are able to do more complex special effects.

If you computers graphics card does not support Shader Model 2, there is no other way but to buy a new one. You can pick up a new 7600GT for as little as £40 ($60) if you know where to look.

Just make sure the rest of your PC can cope, if your PC is old, it may need more than one parts to get it up to speed.

Good Luck.
