This direct x 9 or 10 graphics?

If it is directx 10, how much poorer are the directx 9 graphics (I refuse, even for divinity2) to install Vista because of how bad the os is.


Every time there I run into trouble on the road, there is always a dwarf at the bottom of it. Don't they know how to drive above ground?

I doubt it will be DirectX 10, but Vista is fine. Home Premium with SP1 here, and all my games, latest and even older ones run and look great. Hardware and drivers is the key. Even running original DD on my HP HDX, 20.1 screen and 8800GTS laptop. It's sweet. Vista got a deservedly bad rap from compatability issues when launched, but most have been ironed out. My wife and I both have Vista laptops and no issues at all. Can't wait to play this game on the HDX, DirectX 9 or 10, matters not.

I reckon all the screenshots are Dx9.

PS: You don't like Vista, fine, it's your opinion but please don't just say "it's bad". It sounds a bit too close to trolling and that's certainly the last thing we want to see on this forum, isn't it?

So no dx10 at all?!


PS: The screenshots are awesome,but the GUI that I saw in a screen I hope will be not definitive...

I wasn't impressed by the GUI in that shot either, but I believe that someone was quoted as saying that the PC and Xbox versions have different interfaces, so perhaps thats the Xbox one. It makes sense when you consider they are demoing it on the Xbox.

Lar mentioned the GUI on the PC is under development and still needs work. So that won't be the final version in that screenshot.

Glad to hear it is directX 9, though it does look like 10 rendering.

I'm sure the interface will be patched up to look more streamline like all dialog / inventory boxes in Divinity. The game has about 9 months yet before full release.
