It won't run Shader 2.0 at all.
If you can somehow force it (probably hacking it) it'll look ugly and you'll probably not recognize things you see.
And yea, the video settings aren't too...diverse.
I just read somewhere that the way MS programs its games it be unlikely to run halo2 on previous shader versions until someone releases a mod version with lower res textures and reduce shaders, which looks even more unlikely.
but still, anyone by any chance knows if some developement related to this is going on somewhere or is planned to, in near future?
Ask santa for a new videocard.
or Mrs. Clause ;) just thought id throw that in there. New video Card is needed
Also, I think BioShock is easier to "mod" than H2V.
