Now I will be forced to either spend more to fight and install W10 or stick with FS19. After spending money having people look at it for no reason I decided it was worth the upgrade to W10. It isn't that I want to stick with Windows 8.1, but that I have had 4 guys look at why it won't install Windows 10. I would highly doubt that a computer still running 8.1 would even meet specs unless you are just simply one of those people that are crazy about a specific operating system and will not upgrade (Like a lot were with XP). Some of the backend features that the game is using is not going to be available on a computer running 7/8 therefore not powerful enough. You say that the computer is more then powerful enough to run the game but I HIGHLY doubt that. You can have windows 10 installed into a virtual machine running anything you want as long as you can find the base software. However, Microsoft has said that it is working with a few other game developers to port their D3D12 games over to Windows 7.Īs for drivers, both AMD and NVIDIA has announced that they will be releasing drivers that enable support for DX12 on Windows 7 for compatible graphics cards.The are probably running on a virtual machine. So far, WoW is the only title announced with DX12 support on Windows 7. If you are a Windows 8 or 8.1 users then you are out of luck as those will continue to remain on DX11. You also won't get any of the other features such as DXR (DirectX Raytracing) on Windows 7. However, Microsoft has clarified that while this will enable developers to support DX12 on Windows 7, the best DX12 performance will still be found on Windows 10 as that OS was designed from the ground-up for this API. While working with Blizzard, Microsoft decided to port over the D3D12 runtime over to Windows 7. However, because many gamers are still on Windows 7 for whatever reason, they could only run the game at DX11, which is the latest version supported by that OS. When implemented properly, DX12 does show improved performance over DX11. Over the past couple of years, developers have been increasingly adding support for DirectX 12 in their titles. DirectX 12 titles are able to better leverage multi-core CPUs and also enable multi-GPU systems without requiring hardware vendor technologies such as CrossFire or SLi. It aims to improve performance and efficiency by reducing driver overhead.
The company also announced that Blizzard Entertainment's hugely popular World of Warcraft will become the first title to support DirectX 12 on Windows 7.ĭirectX 12 is a low-level API launched alongside Windows 10.
Microsoft has announced that it is bringing DirectX 12 support for Windows 7.
