What do you like about the new client?

Post by Devrah Windslasher ~ »

A thread for positive feedback could be nice, hm?

Personally, I like the nifty F-key commands, like F8 to view skills, and the ability to switch between seeing shortened names, full names, or no names. I think it's also easier to see how far you are along with skills now with the new color-diagram.

I also like the smoother transitions, and the updated graphics, especially the well graphic. I think the interface looks a lot nicer now, too, and I absolutely love the feature where you can view the entire map, not just the part you're currently standing at. Combat looks awesome now, too.

The buttons to switch into different modes of speech instead of always typing #w, (()), etc. are nice too, and Im not just saying that because I illustrated the graphic for it :P It's a really good idea, much easier than constantly typing the OOC brackets.

Finally, thank you Nop and everyone else that contributed. We know you weren't getting paid for this, and that it was all done in free time, and we do appreciate the effort and work you put in for us, even if we are a bunch of whiny bitches :D

I absolutely love the new client. The graphics are amazing, the character walks more smoothly on this, I like how you can make the speech box larger. I havent used the function key commands yet but I will and I must say that map os very useful.

If you like it now, it's only going to get better. It was rushed to release with many of it's neater features still waiting on a switch of servers (test to real). We're working on that now, so the end result will be quite neat. Remember that weather we promised you? It's coming.

I love it -- :D
only the mouse control for contents depot hang with me -- or cannot at all be moved. Someone should have a smart idea as I that to eliminate can -- gladly --
Otherwise I attach the other one - the graphics, the landscape and the movements are simply beautiful -- as said
I love myself it!!!

And those as much work again and again for thanks to NOP and the others into this project put!

-----------------------------------------------------


Ich liebe ihn :D ---
nur die Maussteuerung für die Inhalte des Depot hängt bei mir manchmal -- oder lässt sich gar nicht bewegen. Sollte jemand eine schlaue Idee haben wie ich das beseitigen kann -- gerne --

Ansonsten schließe ich mich den anderen an - die Grafiken, die Landschaft und die Bewegungen sind einfach wunderschön -- wie gesagt ich liebe ihn !!!

Und Danke an NOP und die anderen die soviel Arbeit immer wieder in dieses Projekt stecken !

I love the spellbook and his functions, also i like the different colors for talk/scream/wisper/emote and the better walking animation. Last but not least all the new spellanimations are much better!

The window mode, definatly! No more crashing due to checking the boards in between or responding to a message on MSN.

And its stability, it never crashes on my system (while the old client crashes three times in an hour in average).
