Functionality
In some cases it closely mimics the experience that Windows users have (insert disc, run Setup.exe, play). In other cases some amount of user tweaking is required to get the game installed and in a state of playability. Cedega 5.2 introduced a feature called the Games Disc Database (GDDB) that simplifies many of these settings and adds auto-game detection when a CD is inserted so that settings are applied for the inserted game automatically.
A basic list of features:
- Some types of copy protection
- Pixel Shaders 3.0
- Vertex Shaders 3.0
- DirectX 9.0
- Joystick support including remapping axes
- The ability to run some Windows games
