Key points
- Supports Hardware PhysX and allows for additional PhysX effects on Nvidia cards.
- Badly optimized and has numerous problems with performance, even on systems with specs way above recommended ones.[1]
- Poor implementation of Shader Model 4.0. It's recommended to use Shader Model 2.0 or 3.0 instead.[2]
