Hey Toxie,

Would it be possible to update the poll to include a windows 10?

[gabrom78]

In my opinion, for now xp or win7 are the at the windows family, more secure than win8 or higher (thinking in privacy)

This poll is old and outdated, since you can't re-vote when you update your system.

 

Come on Paul, archive these results and start the poll over again!

Does anyone else agree ??

Yes I agree. And btw, I choose Windows 10 any time.

Will the new version of virtual pin have the ability to test the lamps, solenoids and switches?

results are too outdated. This poll started in 2013

[toxie]

Indeed. I think we can close this by now.

It seems like someone should create a new poll referencing VPX and the version of Windows everyone uses now.

By now it's actually not that important to know anymore. If we change the VPX rendering core at some point then we will go directly to something very modern like DX12, i.e. Win10, as everything else does not make too much sense (i.e. Win7 & 8 home users mostly have migrated to Win10 anyway) and due to the effort it takes nowadays to switch something like that (efficiently!!). The other option would be something like Vulkan, but that might be even more effort, and we only have limited spare time.

I would have stayed upgraded to Win 10 if it liked my FX 9590 CPU better than it did. Random crashing crap.

 

Good to hear that, for the future, that more modern DX support is happening. Look forward to it!

[toxie]

Don't hold your breath. This is sometime in the future, nothing started at all so far.

[Practicedummy]

No worries. Until Mukuste did VP in DX9, I thought that VP wasn't capable of being modernized. You stating of a future upgrade on VPX to a more modern version of DirectX has me breathing a sigh of relief.

 

Keep up the great work!

[toxie]

Everything is possible, it's always just a matter of (continuous) spare time! Going from DX7 to DX9 was a big time killer, as all kinds of code also needed to be modernized and rewritten while keeping backwards compatibility.

The same was true when going from VP9 to VPX, as all rendering code (and much more) was touched and adapted.

hello, the reason why I still use XP, is that I had a machine with about 10 years old, almost without any use, put a PCI express video card 9500 I did some tests and it worked great, it is not an i7 but it fulfills its function, I clarify that it is a windows Xp 64 BIT, I apologize for my English, greetings to all who make up this great community

 

hola, el motivo por el cual sigo usando XP, es que tenia una maquina con unos 10 años de antigudad, casi sin ningun uso, le puso una placa de video PCI express 9500 hice algunas pruebas y salio funcionando de maravilla, no es un i7 pero cumple su funcion, aclaro que es un windows Xp 64 BIT, pido disculpas por mi ingles, saludos a todos los que forman esta gran comunidad

[charlieshakur]

All about that windows 10 baby

[toxie]

I think this poll should be closed.. Does not make too much sense anymore..

XP will rot away soon (M$ dropped XP compiler support now finally in Visual Studio 2019)..
