View Full Version : Mtw2 Dx10?
Hi all,
Did a search on this but only found hits on folks talking about their new gfx cards......
So does anyone know if MTW2 is dx10 compliant?
Also has anyone heard if it is optimized for SLI?

Anyone?
Why wouldnt a Brandnew Game not work's with a DX10 card? Doesnt DX 8 games work on DX9 game's.
"The hardware force is not strong in this one..." :yes:
JediKnight,
I didnt ask if it would run on a direct X 10 card.
I asked if it was weritten for or optimized for Direct X 10
Big difference. Basically if an app is "Written" for DX10 it will be much faster/better with more graphics goodies than an app that was written in DX9 and running on a DX10 capable card.
Maybe even fast enough or cool enough to justify buying a new graphics card (nudge nudge wink wink say no more)
dx9 games will run like lightning with a dx10 card. dx10 games are still in the pipeline.
To answer you Loki, this is still a DX9 game. They're still using SM2 anyway.
Basically if an app is "Written" for DX10 it will be much faster/better with more graphics goodies than an app that was written in DX9 and running on a DX10 capable card.Don't count on it, you lose something like 15% performance through Vista overhead & gain 5-10% through less DX overhead so net performance loss vs. the same card running DX9 on XP.
But anyway, as noted M2TW is directx9 with shader model 2.
DX10 is min. shader model 4.

Have any DX 10 games been released yet? I wasn't aware of any.
