Where is the "Preview DX10" button?

Postby stevehookem » Thu Jul 16, 2009 4:17 pm

I know that I used to have a "preview DirectX 10" button in my FSX settings somewhere. It's not there now! I have looked at every menu.

Any thoughts about what may have happened to it? I don't want to use it but that may explain some other problems I am having.

Don't have it but I believe it's on the "Graphics' tab window of Display Settings.

'DX10 Preview' requires Vista and FSX SP2. Maybe XP64 doesn't support it.

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.

Steve,

you're on XP, which doesn't support DX10

Exactely.
You "used to have" a DX10 option back in the days where you had Vista.
Now you have XP 64, so no DX10 for you :)
