Ritual To Present a DX10 Engine at GDC 06

[Joe DeFuria]

We stopped mentioning PVR cards after Serie 5, each time it makes everyone sad and all.

...And another kitten just died....

Why do I think the DX10 part in the engine will feel even more bolt-on than HDr on the FarCry engine?

Anyway, the first one with a low end DX10 product on the market wins...

what? no one had mentioned power vr 6 yet?!

You mean Power VR Series 7. Series 6 is so last year.

It's quite possible to use no more than DX7 level hardware with the DX9 API.

But DX10 requires DX10 hardware (or refrast), as there are no caps.

I would not be surprised if there's some dev form of DX10 that has hardware acceleration.

BitBoys will be supplying the hardware for this demo.

For all I know BitBoys has abandoned PC markets (for now anyway)
And in case you're trying to be funny, BitBoys DID make both Pyramid3D and Axe, the 3rd parties involved producing them were the reason they didn't make it on the market (First with Pyramid3D, TriTech went down due some patent infringement on some audio (IIRC) thing, and on Axe due Infineon closing their eDRAM lines (probably there was other reason involved, but that was the main thing afaik))

That would be pleasant surprise
