What kind of video card are you using? Does it support new features in DirectX8 and DirectX9?

My card is DirectX 8.1, but I still use 9.0 on my computer.

as said above, interesting poll. I think Rice is doing this so he knows where to head with his plugin

Thanks for the interesting information. The information I am looking for is slightly different from it. I don't care the GPU vendor, but the features supported by GPUs.

You still need to put DX8 as your vote, as your card doesn't support DX9 features (ie Pixel Shader 2.0 for example).

My card is fully DX9 and OpenGL 1.4 (+1.5?) compliant. Good luck with whatever you are planning Rice.

I never cared for to get a newer card than my gf4 ti, I mean - I don't need any better! So dx8 for me.

I voted Dx8, but I have 2 machines that I run games on, mine and my sons. His is a GF2U so that one is sub DX8, but I can't vote twice

Only DirectX 8.1 on this card. But I plan to upgrade to a DirectX 9 complient card when prices have dropped somewhat.

1x ATi All-in-Wonder 9700 Pro (main PC)
2x 3Dfx Voodoo 5 5500
1x ATi Rage Pro Turbo (I never intend to do N64 emulaiton on this PC)
1x Intel i810 Integrated Graphics

All I particularly care about in terms of your plugin is the All-in-Wonder 9700 Pro. Having the i810 work would be nice, but I don't really care about it.
