Although PoE is becoming a bit more mainstream, it makes sense that the people still using XP would still rely on Blizzard for games no matter how awful those games have become. I'm not sure anyone ever actually used Vista though >.> That was a baaaaad OS. A lot of power users did until 7 came out. We were hitting the 4gb ram limit hard and XP64 had even more problems. (It was Server 2003 under the hood, and driver support for consumer hardware on a server OS was even worse than old printers/scanners when Vista came out.) Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

As a developer, I'd be interested in how massive the main remove DX9 commits are both in terms of thousands of lines of code and percentage of the client code base condemned to the bit bucket.

" The DirectX 11 version (with shadows) performs much better than the DirectX 9 one did without shadows enabled. Yeah I don't know about this, hope the performance improvement is 'real' this time. Delve is already unplayable in party, let us have the option to disable shadows.	Posted by TaxmanD#5737 on Jan 27, 2019, 6:29:13 PM Quote this Post

Good, hope this hits bot/cheat tool users as they generally use older OS's to implement their cheats.
