    Dang, so there is no direct x 9 compatability at all?
    Why are developers doing that? They are killing potential profits because there are still a lot of Windows XP gamers out there.

    For now not

    In my opinion in this moment if devs offer dx9 as minimum not only garantee works on windows XP, also have many chances to work on linux using wine

    For one example risen 3 titan lords, have dx9 and work on wine without problem

    Exactly
    And there are still people with older video cards that are only direct x 9 compatible. Maybe they upgraded to Vista or Win7, but still have that old card.
    Adding direct x compatibility is a good idea. I know developers probably don't want to develop for old stuff, but it widens their range of consumers. Which results in more profits.

    As always must be turn shadows (thanks to this framerate is good and without recording runs better), game is heavy but have good textures, many models if you can try ennable shadows but if you have enough powerfull hardware

    However is needed use your tip, windowed mode however show mouse cursor two times but dont grave, in video appears that

    If dont use your tip this game have same problem with other risen games related to 360 degrees mouse problem (as batman arkham)
