Have any Quake players upgraded to DirectX 8.0 yet, or seen any good/bad reviews about it? If so is it better or worse then 7.0.

I haven't tried it, but I've read atleast one good review of it. It's probably worth a go, but I'll have to wait until I'm online at home anyways...

I was quite surprised to see it finaly released, as DX8 has been wapour ware for so long.

I wonder how much confusion and questions that voice communication thingie will casue?

The main reason I asked is because I've read it can not be uninstalled once you install it. You'd have to do a complete reinstall of Win98.

You can hop over to the lounge, it has been discussed a little there. I am also waiting for more results to be in before I install it. Seems to be a small improvement for people running win2k but different results for some 98 users.
