Fix the lack of SM 2.0 support in current and future games

We, as faithful and loyal customers of ATI, would like to urge the said company to develop a workaround in their Catalyst drivers so that all current Shader Model 2.0/2.0b Radeon cards can render the Shader Model 3.0 effects. Even something as simple as a wrapper(that fakes Shader Model 3.0 support by converting SM 3.0 instructions to SM 2.0 ones) will be acceptable rather than the current situation of having to contend with games that will resort to turning off enhanced graphics on ATI hardware. It is our wish that ATI should work more closely with game developers and ensure that the games include alternative 2.0/2.0b shaders for the thousands of existing ATI hardware owners.

Read the following thread to understand the issue in more detail:

Thank you.
