How come it is suddenly not compatible with my video card ? Why ? Is there anyway I can make the EE run with directx 10, even if I have to disable some features (I really don't care). Maybe there is a patch coming which will make it compatible with dx10 ?
Thanks for reading.


The changes are not based on just a few special effects. But the changes rely on how the game it self is rendered. dx10 was pretty much a failure in terms of features. Which is why its pretty much not used at all. During the period of time almost all games still came out as dx9c and never bothered in adding dx10 support. dx11 started picking up the trend since the changes were significant enough to warrant the upgrade.
