Any news on DirectX 3D Shaders?

Hello,

Has there been any updates on DirectX 3D Shaders? Any new version coming soon (if you can't comment I'm sorry for asking)?

I am specifically looking for Windows Aero and WWDM support in Parallels. Any news on that? I know a year ago, when I purchased, said Aero support was coming soon, but its a year later... Any news?

Thanks,
Christopher Zenzel

We are planning this in Parallels Desktop version 4, which is planning to be published in late summer

Are we getting directX 9.c support?

John@Parallels · Jul 5, 2008

DirectX 8.1 is supported now and several features in DirectX 9, but we are placing our modified dlls, to make compatibility with VM
About version in Parallels Desktop 4 we are discussing what to do (Vista d10 WinXp d9)

OpenGL and Linux?

Will there be OpenGL support for Linux also with the improvements of DirectX in Parallels 4 (for things such as Compiz)?

Thanks,

Not sure about Compiz, but we are testing OpenGL
