Lee mentioned on one of his videos that entirely new libraries are being developed for the new DirectX 10 engine that FPS Creator X10 and DB Pro X10 will use. Furthermore, he mentioned that Windows Vista would be one of the requirements for using FPS Creator X10 (and presumably DB Pro X10).

Since Windows Vista is a requirement, are these libraries being written based on technology from .NET, XNA, both, or neither?

Neither. As i understand, its written useing the DirectX 10 libraries. XNA is a framework using DirectX for .NET.

It will need either Lee or Mike to clarify, as I cannot.

The code for FPS X10 is written using C++ and the DirectX 10 SDK.
