Bug: Even with Lightmass turned off, attempting to build lights reports "Lightmass requires a shader model 3 video card!" then the build aborts.

How did you "turned off" lightmass? Did you disable Global Illuminations through the world info properties window?

I unchecked "Use Lightmass" in the "Build Lighting". If more needs to be done, then the error message needs to be clearer, or it should assume turning off whatever else needs to be turned off for that build...

I thought UE3 requires SM3?

Go and buy one GTX200 card,

I don't understand why you on a machine can't play ut3 to editor.

Everything works fine except one particular shader in the demo maps, and this particular error dialog that is either misleading or incorrect.

Morpheus: Care to donate $60 or so, so I can upgrade? Some of us have places more important than buying new hardware to put our money.

So how you check your game?Isn't it for a sm3.0 card for run?

You suprise me! 7900GX Also support sm3.0.

But too slow in editor.Time is dear.

I can't understand people poorer than Chinese even there.

Update: The bug appears to actually be a totally incorrect dialog box - Lightmass runs perfectly fine on a system without a SM3 video card, but only if you run it from "Build All", rather than from "Build Lighting".
