[Speedy42]

Yeah that's true.Many bugs have gotten fixed

How come I can't select dx10 anymore on newer builds running on Vista?

if u mean some of the latest svn's it says d3d11 or in the (10 or so) latest one d3d10/11
use those, if u only see d3d9 there is a problem there

There seemed to be a change in dx detection, so if your video card does not support dx 10, the option won't show. I haven't compiled the plugin myself, so I am not sure how exactly it is. My guess is based on the log.

GSdx: Fixed bug where DX10/11 was always detected under Vista/Win7, even when
the video card only supported DX9. This fixes the F9 'renderswitch' hotkey.

Long story short DX10 supports Pixel Shader 4.0 which obviously could not be integrated into DX9 Also U gotta have a compatible video card to be able to use it.Do you even have a graphics card or working with built-in?If you do please name it's manufacturer & give its model no. so I can check online for support though U can probably do that yourself

Well the graphics card is NVIDIA GeForce 8200M G.If this could help,write.

even my gt8100 (dont know if its a importing thing to add)
supports dx10 but is slower than on dx9

Yeah,mine is 8200 and is slow with DX10,too.

8600gt and higher is the recommended for DX10, slower cards just can't handle it as well.

It depends. If you mean the latest beta plugins you need to have at least Vista SP1 (or was it Sp2? Oo), if you mean the latest SVN you need to install DX11.

dx9 is better for final fantasy x than dx10

he kinda means u MUST do all your windows and specially service packs cause on the latest svn's there is something they added on them that requires that something is installed on your system (i dont remeber what) and u get it by doing your updates

[Speedy42]

Yeah I had to update my computer to SP2(VISTA) then download some new update to get the DirectX11 option to show up

[SonicXPS2]

Well i can go to Win7 and DX10 my 8600gt can handle it
