Letter to Gizmo about Unity 5

Recommended Posts

Dear Gizmo,

 

Unity has made a major change back in 2017. It means that older computers have issues with the new Unity 5, because manufacturers don't support anymore the old GPU. There has been several topics about this. Not all your customers have the mean or the need to change their old laptop (mine works fine, no reason to change it.).

I have found months ago this post in the Unity Blog @ https://blogs.unity3d.com/2017/07/10/deprecating-directx-9/

 

Here is a the picture:

Please could you tell us if it would be possible to check this line? 

I know that you care for your customers.

 

I thank you in advance for your kind answer

 

Kiss

Is there any way you can simplify what this post is saying, because I don’t know diddly squat about 3D on a computer and didn’t understand what you are trying to say here. I have an older computer too, so I am going to guess whatever you are talking about does apply to me, even if I have no idea what it is. Thanks in advance.

I think most GPUs today are compatible with DX11, 12 and that OpenGL because of more recent Windows. I know Nvidia does. I think Windows 7 supports DirectX 11, and is maybe why the GPU people still support it, for now.
