The bottom one is missing some things on the roof and he road next to it that the xp version has... And this is a directx 9 game. It cannot and is not rendered in directx 10.

I'm trying to figure out what that screenshot even proved.

All it proves is your Windows 7 isn't set the same.

The windows XP one has more detail than the Windows 7 one.

Also, your gamma is set different.

Not to mention "Direct X 11 installed" doesn't magically change your code of the game that supports neither DX10 or DX11..

I never said I magically or otherwise did anything. The settings (including gamma) are the default they are exact with the only difference being the OS and therefore the DirectX version is different.

Edit~ Oh and the video card drivers would be different as well.

So you "proved" DX 11 sucks horribly in the looks department? :confused:

I think you and I are involved in two separate conversations.

I posted a picture that regardless of the version of DirectX it (being the game) was made with was at the time being rendered USING DirectX 10 and in my humble opinion I said it (being the game) looked better in 10 than in 9.

You're saying the "game" used DX11, in which it CANNOT, because it:

1.) doesn't have the CODE to.
2.) You get identical screenshots.
3.) Your "DX11" has LESS detail than the DX9. This is because of your video driver.

64 bit drivers are still sketchy at times. This just shows an example of it.

That is NOT direct X 11. Direct X 11 additions actually require code. Things won't just magically start looking better.

I took a couple in Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood, but accidentally over-print-screened them. That's a really pretty game. Guess I should start trying to use fraps.

What do you think of the last remnant, I hear it was terrible from people I know.

It's very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very difficult, and frustrating most of the time. I just loaded it up earlier just to take screenshots. I haven't played it for almost 2 months now.

If you've played "Gun" and liked it, I highly recommend this. It's pretty awesome. Nowhere near perfect, AI is kinda retarded at times and the shadows are pretty buggy/crappy looking. But the gameplay is fun, and it's pretty enjoyable. If you like story driven shoot 'em ups with lots of action and very little puzzles/thinking then this game is worth it. If you're looking for a challenge, look elsewhere tho. It's fairly easy. But I think it's meant to be a game where you can just sit back, relax and just shoot the hell out of everything :toast:

Hmm.... maybe I'll grab it when it's cheap - looks pretty hot. There was me thinking it was built on the Unreal Engine 3 when it's one I've never heard of - Chrome.

That 2nd screenshot, the vista shot is freaking awesome!

Bound in Blood runs really well considering how good it looks. I agree though, the shadows are iffy at times.
