Valve To Support DX10 With Episode 2

Posted by Zonk on from the really-really-shiny-alyx-vance dept.

In an interview with Game Informer from last week, representatives from Valve confirmed that they'll be supporting DirectX 10 functionality in the release of Half-Life 2: Episode 2 and Team Fortress 2. This will be the case even for those folks who haven't upgraded to Vista yet. No worries if you don't have a DX10 card, though. They've got functionality nailed all the way back to DirectX 8, and are trying to push it all the way back to 7.

    > How do they access DX10 features in the Source engine on XP? If that is the case, why upgrade to Vista for DX10 at all?
