NODE13 - DirectX11 Workshop - Windows 8?

vvvv beta general
1

Hey guys!

I’m really looking forward to the upcoming NODE13!

The requirements for the DirectX11 workshop list a windows 7 PC.

Does anybody know if Windows 8 will have any issues in this context?

I could install Windows 7 as well, but if not necessary, well then not.

See you at NODE13!

Regards

@gegenlicht: it is only that we don’t have any experience with win8…so we won’t be able to deal with win8 specific problems…

Thanks for your answers guys.
The directX11 build “vvvv45alpha29.3_x86_dx11” worked pretty good for me. I had some not reproducable problems with cloning templates, where I was not able to clone. It fixed itself after some restarting action.

I also had virtually no problems with nVidia Optimus on my Windows 8 machine, besides some grey renderers.

Seem gray renderer on start come from some wrong AA settings in renderer, setting quality to 0 should fix it (works in dx11 hw, but not in dx10/10.1 hw)
