Direct X 12 and Windows 10 and DCS

[ctguy1955]

I have two EVGA 4 gig 680 GPU's in my rig and have been very happy

with the performance. I tried to look up how to download the beta version

or what ever it is for Windows 10 and was not seeing it on the microsoft

website. I did see some last week, but they were from sites that wanted

you to register with them and I just did not feel comfortable doing so and

I guess there are only a few games out that would even use any of the

benefits of the Direct X 12 properties.

 

I look forward to the new WWII DCS and the new planes

and I have been learning so much from others on

the multiplayer areas using TS3 Client and many

of the wonderful people there have taught me so

much and I appreciate learning more as I am

getting older and not as swift with the learning

curve and the things can can be done.

 

Im getting better at landing the P-51 as

I am now home all the time and can now

fly for many hours instead of only weekends

or just coming home one weekend a month

as I had been doing for 4 months. I missed

flying so much that I was going to buy a used

pc for when I was in New York, as I did not

want to bring my rig from CT to NY, as the

place I was living was not very safe, from fire

or theft, so I was not willing to have my rig there.

 

OK, enough for now, hope I can get some

info on Direct X 12 and Windows 10 and if

it will effect DCS or not ?:pilotfly:

Short answer is, no. DCS is DX9 right now and is planned to use DX11 in the near future but we can't expect it to be DX12 ever, as far as I know. Making it DX12 compatible would mean coding for a new engine again and as we can see with edge(dx11), it takes a while. It would maybe be a little bit faster because edge also brings several other non graphical improvements but I think that seeing DCS in DX12 is not to be expected. Maybe DX13, yes :D
