    Considering Epics likes to have their engine running on as many platforms as possible (partially why it's so CPU heavy), I would doubt it. They're maybe platform specific paths for some functions or features within the engine with optimizations for Xenon (but pretty much any cross platform library, engine/RTE has that sort of thing)...

    True, but hardcoding the engine wouldn't make it exclusive to the platform.

    Apparently your definition of hardcoding is somewhat different then mine then, what exactly do you define as hardcoded?

    Well I'm all ears :p how is it a good thing?

    To be clear, I didn't say that I agreed with Jaws' speculation or that he is right, or even close to right, or wrong either. :twisted: :wink:
