Hi all.

I use blaxxuns multitexture extension for a architecture visualization.
It looks very good on my machine but the question is:

Does this work with every modern graphics card with DirectX 8 or
higher?? or are there some points to consider?

Thanks and best regards,

Hilmar.

I would wonder, if it would not work, cause multitexturing was
supported by ancient graphiccards like the VOODO 2 (at least with
two textures).

If you have a thread that uses Sleep with infinite delay, the

Some older notebook chips can't do MultiTexture.
However its safe to use the MultiTexture node, only the first texture will
be used.

Otherwise one can query in Contact the number of texture units and available
blend modes
and could branch to different content depending on the outcome.
