News about 4.03.0

Programm internals	REFLEX 4.03 uses DirectX8.1 or better. In case it is not installed, an error message appears and Reflex discontinous to install. REFLEX does not require a videocard that is capable of DirectX 8 as we are not using Vertex- or Pixelshading. Speed: 1.) REFLEX 4.03.0 contains various optimisations that increase speed considerably. There are some new features included, that require a sophisticated invironment. A slow CPU or a slow video card may not show all the improvements. In details we are talking about better texture mapping, better rotor display better smoke and shadow display. 2.) In order to increase the display quality, Reflex tries to use the Antialiasing speed of 2x. Some older video cards such as G400, TNT2 or GeForce1/2 may react with decreasing performance in this setting. Customers who are feeling a slower performance should set the Antialiasing feature to "OFF".
