DirectX requirement.
So I currently have an older Radeon HD 4890, dx 10.1 capable, I do intend to upgrade that before long. What I'd like to know is if I could run Dirt Rally with my current card or does the game require DX11 minimum?

Well, they don't directly say on Store page but if one looks up the min req GPU 's listed
they are both DirectX 11 so I' think you are out of luck.
It says in one of the config files that it can force dx10. So I assume you are in luck.

So can it run in DX10? I have a nvidia gtx 260 with dx 10 and im not planning to upgrade but i want to play this game. Do i buy it, do i hear a definitive yes for dx10 support or not?

Yes / No is the answer; after looking at an Error 41 thread in Tech Support it appears Dirt Rally dose not like dx 10 [this may or may not change as the game developes]
look at page 15

Good luck with experimenting with that. Report back if ya plonk back the cash on that hi risk endeavor!

You know the Devs might consider updateing the Steam page with explicit info on DirextX min requirement... or maybe they are 'In Progress' and may add DX10 support later this year.

Shrug. Only they know.

Same card here. If you finally buy it please say if it works :)

Just what I feared. I got a GTS250, Directx 10. What's with all of these games that only support DX11 now? Why even be compatible with so many old CPUs if it requires a new GPU? It doesn't make much sense. Well it seems like it's another game I'll only play in a few years.

You are mistaken in one little but important detail:

"Direct X " does not equal "Direct X".

Those are development libraries meaning pre-compiled pieces of programming-code that are in themselves black-boxes to build other stuff with. It is almost as if they are their own programming-language. E.G. 3D-engines: "Game-developers" usually take a third-party "graphics-engine" nowerdays because building one from scratch is increasingly tough and complex.

Now the problem is that each version of "Dirext X" breaks with stuff that was perfectly acceptable in the version before. That means it is NOT trivial to just re-compile stuff for a new version.


It doesn't make much sense. Well it seems like it's another game I'll only play in a few years.
Well, no it does not - from a consumer standpoint. Yet it does so for everyone else, it seems.

Consumer - Thechnology does not really do evolutionary steps, unfortunately. It is inherently NOT part of the business model.

Microsoft core interest always has been: make Windows the ONLY mass-market platform. Direct-X proved to be a powerful tool in doing so by _not_ ensuring backwars-compatibility. Each new generation of games demanded not only newer hardware but a new license of a certain OS that included the necessary stuff to make said hardware DO STUFF.

They were reported to not have thought about further developing Direct-X going forward... ...until some guys woke them up saying: "We rely on YOU sh__ty middleware to make our GPU sales continue. No business for us, less business for you" ... So after "Mantle" was threatening to make Direct-3D obsolete, Microsoft reacted very quickly and steered their sinking ship back on its course. Next: AMD kind-of trashed Mantle, all are a happy bunch of campers



Time for more people to use SteamOS, make that monopoly of M$ a tale of the past!

Thought I'd add something here, just switched my old HD 4890 out for a GTX 770, got the latest nvidia drivers and the game launched and ran nicely where before it was only giving the code 41 error.

complaining about not supporting 8 (EIGHT) years old technology? why not looking at the min requirements? gtx 4xx / radeon 5xxx or better! oh these kids out there...
pls, just upgrade or buy a used dx 11 card for ~$40 if you want to play new games in 2015!

*and linux will never be an alternative for gaming on pc cause you will never get the same graphic-driver performance as on windows. why should any gamer switch to a slower system? right, nobody would!

Linux will have the same problem aka openGL version. So stop blaming it on directX version 11 just has features 10 doesn't have so it will not work it's as easy as that.

What Uzi said is correct, I've asked Valve if we can get it updated to make it clearer. Sorry for any confusion.
