Nvidia Demos with Radeon?

I just got a Radeon 9500 Pro. It is a DX9 card and performs likea FX.

I want to view the demos from the Nvidia sight, like the Dawn and Ogre one. Is this possible as the website says they require a GeForceFX.

Is there maybe a registry entry or tiny mod or something that makes my Radeon look like aFX to the demo program?

Thanks

not that i know of, I think you need an FX because the demos were especially created for the FX architecture.

do you have to download a weird file or is it just a video file...if it's just a video then you might not see it exactly how it was meant to be seen (not sure why not...) ... but you ought to be able to view it.

nVidia's Dawn is one of the most impressive demos you can ever run on your 9500 Pro. The skin textures is one of the best I've ever seen and it looks absolutely brilliant with FSAA and Aniso enabled.

Here 's a couple of screenshots I made (Note the ATI logo)

Go over to Rage3d.com to download the OpenGL wrapper after you've downloaded the demo from nVidia's site.
