Hello I was considering BlitzMax. It's using DirectX 7 from what I read, but there is a 3rd party is working on DirectX 9 support? Can someone clarify exactly what is going on in this area?

Also, where can I read more about Irrlicht or other 3D engine wrappers for BlitzMax?

The DX9 driver is just 2D stuff. It's going through some final official modifications. I've been using the unofficial driver for sometime now and it's working fine. Weird that some gpu's still render faster using DX7 though. !#$%^
