If you download directX 11, when you play Hopeless 2 will it show directX 11 or will it still keep it directX 9.

Can the game use DirectX 11? :cheers:

That "DirectX 9" is a generic one.
The game can force 2 renderers: DirectX and OpenGL
DX11, DX10 & DX9 are backward compatible and they depend on your OS and graphics card.
By default:
Windows XP : DX9
Windows Vista : DX10
Windows 7 : DX11

The older graphic cards are limited to DirectX 9.
For example, if you run GeForce 8600GT (a DX9 card) on Windows 7 (DX11),
your graphics card is running in DX9 mode.
