Good Morning or evening to everyone, Is it possible for Zandronum to have a DirectX video mode, DOOM95 is using DirectX (Direct3D), But is it possible for Zandronum to have this.

My guess is that you would have to code a new renderer from scratch, but assuming you could: why would you want it?

Some video card sets are made for DirectX and not OGL (mine included) and would run faster.
But you would essentially be making another GZDoom, from scratch... not going to happen any time soon probably.

DirectDraw/Direct3D acceleration in software mode. Windows ZDoom based builds only. [1]

EDIT: This is already in Zandronum, just fyi..

ZDoom + DirectX = XZDoom (or ZDoomX)
But that sounds like hard work, in which most people wouldn't want to do. Not calling people lazy, but it's such a large task.

I know that Vavoom has Direct3D Support. Not sure if Zandronum will have it in the future, but we will see.

I think that he refers to ATi/AMD GPUs.
