Topic on Talk:S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl

I don't know where that came from, but none of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games make use of the DirectX 8. 1. Static lighting uses D3D9, as MSI AB/RTSS overlay shows. 2. Minimal system requirements state ATI Radeon 9600 and Nvidia GeForce 5700 which are DX9-class GPUs. 3. There are no references of d3d8 or d3dx8 in the binary files. I checked some earlier S.T.A.L.K.E.R. development builds from 2005 and they also don't use D3D8. So it looks like DX8 was ditched from the game long before the release.
