Multi Core & DirectX Version

(1/3) > >>

markpeterjameslegg:
I have noticed that I can't select either of these in the Advanced Options, are they not implemented yet? I have a Quad Core and am on DirectX 11 on 64Bit Windows 7.

namajnaG:
I do know that the Source engine cannot support DirectX 10 or higher, But can support 7 and 8, But the default is 9.
As for multi-core rendering... I have no idea.

If you ever have to lower your DirectX to 8 or 7 (Which I doubt), Enter in launch options "-dxlevel x0" (Replace x with 7 8 or 9)

Jeron [SharpSh00tah]:
Namajna, thats not what he is saying.

@Mark, Hey Valve has yet to release support for multi-core rendering on mods. I HOPE and pray when the new counter-strike is released, they will release all the new toys they have been promising; hopefully including multi-core

Jonathon [SSL]:
Yeah, Source doesn't support DirectX above 9 (since Valve refuses to update their now quite ancient engine technology) and multi-core support is a semi-broken feature in to the couple games that have it (sometimes it works, sometimes it causes stutter and horrid performance drops) so it's not included in the moddable Source build I think. You don't really need it anyway, the game runs fine on a single-core processor really...

Mangley:
Topics like this make me feel like I'm going to have an aneyurism.
