View Full Version : DirectX10 on Windows XP..[maybe]

A site called the Alky Project has released a set of files which demonstrate their efforts to get DirectX10 games to run on Windows XP. DirectX10 is normally Vista-only, and given it is a proprietary API, I sincerely doubt Microsoft will allow this project to continue - even if it was actually practically possible for it to reach fruition, which seems unlikely.

Many can only hope this goes through. I plan on sticking with XP until the very last moment if this happens, otherwise I'll stick with plan A and build an exclusive Vista gaming machine.

You know I have been noticing those kind of posts lately..

Yeah, all that spam from these guys is ridiculous.

But as for the topic, I suppose it would be possible, especially if they concentrate on one particular DX10 feature, rather than the entire feature set of DX10.

But I also agree that it will be easier just to grab an extra hard drive and run a slim version of Vista to play games.

That's what I'll be doing when the DX10 games start coming out. Until then Vista ain't going anywhere near my machine.
