Can any current card run the 3DMark Nature test?

[Azk]

Just curious, is there any current vid card that can run the nature test in the 3DMark 2001 suite? I have a Radeon and it justs skips the test. My friend's GeForce2 does the same.

How come the demo plays the nature sceen but the test won't run?

Thanks

Nope...Geforce3 Might? That should add another few 100's points and pull the lead again. That BenchMark is so Biased! I would not be surprised one bit if ATI and Nvidia had large amounts of Money Pooring into the MadOnion Bank Account...tisk

I have the same question....
the cards can't run the nature test but can run the nature demo...
WHY????
they can't be a movie,because the resolution,color depth changes the speed os this "movie"...

The nature demo uses the CPU instead of the vidcard to emulate the features needed, when they bench in MadOnion they look for your vidcard HW capabilities, not your software capabilities.
