Shadowrun Vista will use DirectX 9

Published by rapture April 5th, 2007 in technical. 0 Comments

Kimona sent word the Windows Vista version of Shadowrun will indeed use the DirectX 9 graphics platform.  This makes sense.  There are only a few DirectX 10 capable video cards out on the market.  ATI doesn’t even have a DirectX 10 card out yet.  (By the way, the new ATI DX10 card will be launched at the end of the month).  DirectX 10 cards cost a lot of money and require a lot of power.  A lot of gamers just won’t be able to use the DX10 card for one reason or another.
