[Ohrrpgce] DirectX Graphics backend, Beta test

[Jay Tennant]

Just posting about the image. I've had two persons ask about the image displayed in the test--in fact my dad visited today and thought the graphics were "all messed up". To clarify, the image in the test app looks like scan lines with the occasional red, green, and blue dots. This image scrolls to the left. A link to the image, generated by setting all options on, screenshot format to .png, at 960 x 600:

I'm sorry if the image was confusing before. :) Any other results? I'd like to release this publicly soon. Everyone hates serious support issues, so if I could get a little more feedback, it'd be appreciated. Pending the solution to one ohr engine bug (certain notifications relating to ohr mouse state (not os mouse state)), the gfx_directx backend will be publicly released.

> I concede in the interest of greatest compatibility to use the fixed function pipeline if the shaders fail. The program will interface identically, just without shaders if pixel shader 2.0 is not present. Please test this on pre-shader 2.0 graphics cards. Thankyou!
