John Carmack on DirectX 10

Post by slinky »

Interesting interview... might calm some people on the whole UT2K7 graphics card requirements frenzy.

I don't think that Epic would make a game that can't run fine on DX9 card and non DX10 operating systems... i.e. Vista. Logically, they will match what the market is... still on the high end.

DX9 based games will be around for a while. It looks like new 3d engines are going to be optimized for game consoles from the beginning. In the past they were all developed for PC first.
