Direct X 10/11 Question - Answer (Translated)

[Rydin]

Yes, it's not set by default for 32-bit applications. But applications that use lots of resources should have it enabled. Sadly most devs just forget to set it :P

I get you

I thought DX10/11 was already popular.... its been avaliable for a good while now. ever since what... GTX XXX series and Raedon HD XXXX series?

8800GTX and Radeon HD 2400

Ok.. for you guys who claim have nothing wrong, i was one of them too! before patch 1.16 my PC running FFXIV smoothly but after the patch 1.16, it start to lag so much, even loading time takes forever! i was like wtf happen with FFXIV???

More SE spin... they might as well've developed this game solely for console.

Agreed. if they were going to program it for PS3 the whole time they should have released it for PS3 first, not PC.

Somehow I think we are just SEs cheap lab rats. They don't care if they poison the pc players. It's all for the PS3 players ultimate gaming experience -_-

right. SE is a consol game compagnie not pc game maker. they dont care , as soon as the ps3 version will be release you may forget about any pc improvement

[Soukyuu]

They shouldn't have started with a PC version in the first place.

The particle shadows were cool....
And the water was awesome....
The thing is... DX11 just makes it possible.... you still have to actually implement these things in your game engine....

[viion]

Yah SE's engine probably lacks these, where as if they had used CryEngine 3 (just talking example here), they could just "Switch it on".

My Graphics Card has DX11 support, but it cannot handle extensive tessalation, infact it cant even handle Crysis 2 on highest settings so i wouldnt benefit

[Coldfire]

Tesselation actually can make the game run faster. The GPU has a seperate tesselation unit. They could reduce the default polygon count of all objects in the world and by applying tesselation near objects would still have more detail than they have now. You could even display more players at the same time.
