They must have these high numbers, yes.

Then I forgot to ask why.

Technical reasons.
Monsters MUST have numbers, otherwise they would not be identifiable.
And currently, the client MUST show all numbers.

Now first of all i want to say that i don't mean to sound overly critical.
But so far everything about the new client seems exactly the same (with some minor noticable changes of course). I mean, all i see is a different graphics layout. Rocks tiles are still rock tiles, grass is grass. It all feels the same to me.

shall the rocktiles be grass ands the grass rocktiles? or perhaps you want smileys where the grass is now?

There's a lot more to this client. Just check it out.

What i mean is everything is the same, just with a different look to it. I guess i just expected someting different that's all. I'm not trying to knock the new client or anything.

Well, then let us surprise you.

*rotfl*

Do you really want to play Illarion or shall we program it to another genre? Maybe we can made a shooter ? We have made an update and not a complete new game.

Oh no...not a shooter. Lets make a round-based stratagy-game, like JA2

There are quite a few new changes... you just have to figure them out.

Ezor feels like all that has been changed is the graphics not any other things such as, Magic, fighting, and so on

He feels like. That might be true.

But, just as a hint, didn't you think that we maybe provided a basis to change that?
Didn't you notice that the client was larger this time?

Yes, I am not saying that he is right. I feel that only seldom changes were made but a better coding was made to easier input data and many more things. Which you stated a while ago.

I did remember reading a post talking about this client would make it easier to implement things. Easier code or something, maybe that's the big change Ezor, they just haven't.. umm changed anything yet!

I presume there is a map editor nestled somewhere in the crevices of this client, or would I be presuming incorrectly?

Why does the Knights shield look like an inverted Norway flag?

If you weren't an ignorant American, you would have known that Norway has nothing to do with it. It's Iceland, silly!

Anyhow: I absolutely love the new graphics. Well done.
I am sure, that the few bugs and errors which might exist are going to be removed in no time.

Some of the new graphics I like, some I don't, but all in all I think most of them are better! I was kind of hopig for plate leggings too though! *hint*hint*
