August 18, 200619 yr Not quite. HDR effects are perfectly capable of being displayed by DX9, as evidenced by the game Far Cry...although that's an apples to oranges comparison when a moving light source is applied to the issue. Performance might also give you some problems, since HDR's been accused of slowing systems down.As for why it's not in the demo, only the developers know that. But look at what's not working correctly in the demo...light bloom, sun and moon reflections and landing lights...all HDR effects. Just a guess, but I'd have to say that the HDR code is still inwork, and wasn't ready for the demo. Hopefully, the HDR lighting effects won't be dropped in the final release.-Ivan
