Prasanth Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 Well theinquirer.net is plain wrong.There are currently three Release Candidates not two. RC0 , RC1 and RC2. That makes Three release candidates. Don't ask. I just know. DirectX9 will be released when it's ready. And Unless RC2 was deemed as shippable quality then all you have my friend is RC2. Live with it! you're a slashdotter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0sit0 Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 gimme an F, an I an N, an A, an L what does it spells? FINAL :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oxygene Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 No I'm not a Slashdotter, I am in a position to know. And I know that this build is not final. Anyway I've wasted enough time here, go download. Install Pre-release software, what do I care. What's the point, unless you have an ATI 9700 then DX9 will do nothing for you anyway. I give up. :blink: :wacko: :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oxygene Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 My RC2 build has the following File Version : 6.00.2448.0000 (Lab04_N(rahulth).010206-1320) Your so called *final* has the following File Version : 6.00.2448.0000 (Lab04_N(rahulth).010206-1320) OK. Enough said. You have a prerelease RC build unless MS deemed RC2 *ready to ship*. THE END Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prasanth Posted December 20, 2002 Share Posted December 20, 2002 And I know that this build is not final. How?
