[Pawgy]

No windows 7 is a mistake. many of us still cling to w7 and will forever or as long as it lasts..

Later dude

They haven't said they're not supporting win 7. The system requirements on the steam page are temporary. They are only there because they had to put something to create the page.

You need to get over Win 7 and live the hype of Win 10 superior in everyway

 

[Tim Meuris]

I just upgraded both my systems to win 10. Acc was the reason for me to do it. I think I just might survive this big change...

They have already stated ages ago that Win 7 is still supported. And for good reason too. It's a better more stable gaming platform. And many still use it.

I don't think Kunos agree with you on the first point but happily for Win7 users they do agree on the second.

Well he states that it is going to be supported and that's the answer.

I am one person that still uses Win 7 and I never have any issues unlike the plethora of people on here who regularly moan about Win 10 doing something bad on their PC. I will obviously go to Win 10 or Win 12 in the future but I see no reason to do so yet. My PC is used for many older sims, both flight, sea and land, I even run my beloved Janes USAF on it with no problems. Try doing that with Win 10.

I'm sure I can

 

[Andy_J]

I'm sure I can

I doubt it.

That's interesting...
Now that I think of it. I would have guessed the Unreal engine would need the DX12. But I guess not?

Seems like Win7 is still supported...

Why not it's still over 40% of Windows users, although the numbers are starting to drop faster now.
My son has just switched to W10 so I'm watching with interest

 

[RasmusP]

If it's not dx12 only and not a windows store title like forza there's absolutely no reason for win 7 not being supported.
I doubt that Kunos would go either route!

Only question is: will the rtx update be dx12 exclusive or included into dx11 too? Afaik it's a separate, new DirectX part so both is possible.

A really major factor in why I finally gave up on Win7 was that the MS update process became 4 to 6 hours of CPU time, every single time. I kid you not. It was beyond surreal, and much googling convinced me it was a pretty common thing, especially on elderly CPUs. Basically intolerable.

I still liked lots of things about Win7 and would quite likely still have it today on my older boxes, but for that.

Solid reason!
I don't care too much about updates. Once a month I download the update package from winfuture an install it with auto restarting. The quickest way and no freaking windows update runs ever again!

I used to think like that too !

VR user here and if I wanted the time warp thing I had to go with Windows 10. It works. I don't remember swearing at it since I stopped using an after market antivirus and just use Windows defender.

I'm curious to see which performs better. If it's 7 then just going to dedicate that to AC and have 10 for rest of my crap.

I have an i3 2ghz 8 GB ram built in shared graphics. On a good day about 50 FPS jumping around to 60, once it hit 80 for no reason! It's not a professional setup. But it does the job

However it does glitch here and there. So going to try 7. Dual boot. Maybe set it up so I can get both windows sharing the same assetto folder.

I post the results. Gameplay over graphics for me due to hardware but that's what it's all about!

Next time.

Until then, rate my old school PS2 steering wheel converted for pc, modded for steering wheel shifters, on board button array, four pedals brake clutch brake gas, for norms and karts/F1. Raspberry pi running Android and aim dashboard on second screen. All adjustable height tilt n all, pedals too up down and tilt.

It's been tough through Lockdowns. I kept myself busy without unnecessary expenditure - for now.
