Default DX9 / XP discussion

- hope its lesson learned and you keep DX9 out of the Sequel.

AI being worked on its good news, lots of threads on bugtracker to guide you.

Not my fault! i did not create this mess!

FS~Phat edit: (NOTED! your not in trouble it was a relevant comment that deserved to be heard and discussed, just not 15 pages of it in the Friday update thread!)

release it without DX9, i don't use it since 2008 or before, as many others, DX9ers can wait for a bit more as is their problem not willing to update their hardware.

We have told about it in the past. We'll support DX9.

They need to beta/alpha test the DX9 version too before official release I am sure.

Thanks for the update BS... got to agree with David's suggestion though. I am really beginning to develop an uncontrollable dislike for XP users.

Test the DX9 is one of the main tasks in the next beta.

Thanks for the update B6.
This is looking good and forward!

The community just need to be a little bit more patient and we have our sweet patch out =).

This story repeats everywhere about the DX9 Lol.
For people more connected with hardware and software, a game being DX9 or DX10 doesn't matter much because we know what it's needed to do, to fix the game. For some people software and hardware it's just a complete brainstorm.
But even if they sell the game only for DX10+ there are hundreds of IL-2 players that would buy the game without checking the compatibility, neither understanding why it doesn't run, and they would easily complain because the game doesn't work by unknown reason, than searching how to fix the game. Instead of having people on this forum complaining the game is quite unstable they would be all around complaining the game doesn't even run and they have been scammed.
Plus that there are still people that don't want to update their hardware nor have a compatible OS with DX10+, besides that it takes a good amount of money.
I got a DX11 graphic card but I /support the effort of Maddox team in the DX9 compatibility.
(lol here we got another post about DX9 xD)

Don't get me wrong guys, I want that patch so badly as you all.

Good Weekend guys!

Good Weekend guys!
That's the problem though.... and I know people will cry "Elitism" but I'm inclined to say "Tough". lol

I was saying to someone the other day that I long for an England of cucumber sandwiches, cricket on the lawn and biplanes... how I wasn't made for these times. I have to be grown up about it, though, or I'll go mad. (or madder. lol) Those days are gone forever.... and if they weren't I wouldn't even have the internet, let alone DX10... or Cliffs of Dover. lol

The PC market is in a constant state of evolution and, whilst I accept what BS has said with regards to 1C stating it would have DX9 support and so, quite rightfully, they must provide it..... We can't look to the future if we spend all our time being held back by those who cling to the past.

All that said... I'm still optimistic but I am getting impatient..... and I think all of us who are getting impatient have a right to be that way.
