Hi All,
    I've been looking at cg with interest. I downloaded the nvidia toolkit
and the examples seem to work fine on a PC with a nvidia FX5600 card.
However, these same examples won't work on a PC with a ATI Radeon 9800 Card.
Is this to be expected?. Is there an equivalent ATI cg toolkit?. Also, does
the 9800 All in wonder card support cg?.

Thanks in advance,
Dave

No. CG "compiles" to an assembly-shader language. You are probably
outputting to an nvidia-specific assembler (vp30/fp30 or vp40/fp40). If 
you switch to ARB_vertex_program and ARB_fragment_program, you shouldn't 
be seing any problems.

There is no equivalent ATI-toolkit. CG is a high-level shader-language, 
that is translated into some other language before execution. ATi 
supports the OpenGL-shading-language GLSL instead (Nvidia does so too).
