Given that DX-9 is a subset of DX10, any DX9 commands should work in a DX-10 environment.

If you are buying a DX-10 only game then you should have DX-10 Hardware.

But since the graphics engine used by the series is being rewritten then once you install the sequel it will be a DX10 only sim. Like the previous version of the game I assume once you install the sequel it will not be compatable with previous versions of the game.

Over the life the original IL2 - up until this very day infact, this was considered the norm and due the improvements that came with every episode of the series no sensible person complained too much!

You need to remember that IL-2 was released in 2001 and that was in the DX8.somethink era. It survived the transition to DX9

But those were simpler days! Still we probably don't have worry about it too much now-a-days.
