So the Vista driver from the NVIdia website won't work? We need specialized DX10 drivers?

Anyone tried this on vista yet with a 8800?

There aren't any DX10 drivers available yet :(

Yes there are.

DirectX 10 support for GeForce 8800 GPUs

Exactly...I thought they already had DX10 support. Gersson?? Schneiderguy?? Is there something I'm missing? I'd really like to try this out.

:eek: I didnt even see that... I guess I just saw the blurb about "dx10 sli support coming in a future driver" and thought it meant no dx10 support in that driver.

...however, bad news :(

according to the devs of the game: Text

DX10 has been disabled in the CoH 1.5 patch regardless of your computer, but we will enable it in a future patch.

:(:(

So the option is there, just no way to actually turn it on.

Awesome... there's a disabled option for something that might not even exist.

Only the editors with G80 DX10 driver beta or R600 sample model with DX10 driver would have chance to enjoy it :( !!

If you have DX10, go download some of the DX10 nvidia demos. It shows that the driver support is there, the games arent. Albeit the drivers are pretty shoddy.

Cascade's waterfall effects are pretty sick.
