Drivers and 0.7.0 Support?

-Which Nvidia and AMD driver releases will support the new Direct Driver model?

-When will they be out?

-Will they be WHLQ's or Beta's?

-If a user runs an EXE that has been built under 0.7.0 With drivers that don't support the Direct Driver feature what will happen? graceful fall back or catapocalypse?

-Is this only for win7 & 8.1? Will Win10 work the same (when win10 works)?

Thanks for your time.

    There should be more details explained when the package is released. Thanks.

    From Reddit:
    "Direct Driver mode will be automatically selected if it's available. The older OVR Direct mode will be used only if Direct Driver mode is unavailable."
