Under the 3D Tab in both OpenGL and Direct 3D there is an internal panel for SMARTSHADER Effects, what is this? What does this do?

    It changes the way scenes are rendered.

    Though you could've read google, a driver feature list, or tried it yourself to figure it out just the same. :)

    I went to ATi's site and it had a flash demo that I read through, it talked about it, but not what each of the effects did... waisted my time.

    So does this do anything in games? I don't have any installed, I JUST finished reinstalling Windows when I noticed that panel.

    Yeah it is. Pretty useless I'd say, just entertaining.

    Utterly useless, the way the demo showed smartshaders, it was something for 3D Artists to create things to be more realistic like clothing and stuff like that.
