Guess that settles it, then. Any plans to support Direct3D 5/6/7 eventually? Alternatively - I'm way way out of my depth here - is there any way to emulate Direct3D 7 using Direct3D 8 APIs? It'd be nice to have that stated authoritatively somewhere in a place where Google finds it. I did quite a bit of searching around but couldn't find anything certain.
