Run DX10 features in DX9 hah!

http://www.crysis-online.com/forum/i...?topic=11837.0

"So DX10 is Vista-only? Rubbish. The PC gaming crowd have found a way to enable many of the "DX10-exclusive" graphical touches in EA's Crysis for users running XP, and it doesn't even require a hack. It takes a quick edit of a config file (as in, cutting and pasting ONE LINE), and voilĂ*, you've got pretty much the same pretty sun and water effects as those suckers who forked out for Vista. You can cut and paste a single line of text, right?"

C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Crytek\Crysis SP Demo\Game\Config\CVarGroups

Jus copy and paste some code, follow the link posted above. Apparently the hit on fps isn't large at all. I'm off to try it now, I'll take screenies if poss
