Re: DirectX Support
I don't see a reason why. It would take a bunch of time to get it working, to only give a small speed boost.
OpenGL works fine on Windows.

Re: DirectX Support
yep, it does as far as I know.

Not with all graphics cards, particularly ATI ones. No doubt a big reason why Macs only come with NVIDIA graphics cards.TheBigCheese wrote:I don't see a reason why. It would take a bunch of time to get it working, to only give a small speed boost.

In any case, I imagine that translating OpenGL to DirectX would require a considerable amount of effort. Perhaps people with problems could try using this: http://www.majorgeeks.com/GLDirect_d381.html

Not entirely true. They still come with ATI in options.Skofo wrote: No doubt a big reason why Macs only come with NVIDIA graphics cards.
Re: DirectX Support
YA I have an ati card on my laptop and thats why i'm asking, thinking it's an openGL related problem that the terrain doesn't render.
Re: DirectX Support
Did you at least updated your graphic card drivers?
Besides, before jumping directly at any conclusions, you have to remember it's still in alpha stage, so graphic issues are still common. Explaining the problem will help the developpers to fix it.

Re: DirectX Support
I know, I know, already did everything, so not going to get into a formal bug report.
Was mainly asking as DirectX is the more main stream rendering api.

Re: DirectX Support
What is your graphic card, by the way?
Re: DirectX Support
Radeon HD3650 512mb, in an Acer laptop.
I mean the alphas work on my pc so I ain't too bothered, but OG on the go would be sweet.

Re: DirectX Support
Strange. I don't see why OpenGL wouldn't work with that card. :S
No error messages?

Re: DirectX Support
Yeah, OpenGL has been around for a while, so any card that doesn't support it either needs to get a driver update, or is a weird off-brand.
