yes, at least it should, because it's independant from it, it just grabs the whole desktop, no matter what it shows...
I tested it with dx9 and ogl...

btw. is it now possible to use a RT that has the same size as the desktop ???
or what about NPOT textures, I mean the chance that the desktop resolution is POT is minimal, I think...

otherwise you'll get problems with the RTT methode...

Not really, I know my version is patched, but worst come to worst, you just pass a bigger pot texture as argument, use only the screen section and only render that.

I honestly wrote 90% of it previously. Just use the same functions I wrote in the same order, fill in the blanks and there you go.
