RE: Upgrade to 1.21 - Lunar Bluestar - 10-25-2006 05:24 PM
Oh. Well, so I'm not going further into insanity...
bu...but it looked so cool... And it made sense for this forum. Plus, I thought for a while it was only in the RP section...
Hey, why don't we only have it in the RP sections? It would make sense and we could look at both exp totals and exact post count...

And now the post-reply box clears every time I press Back on my browser, which it didn't use to.
RE: Upgrade to 1.21 - Shadowhunter - 10-25-2006 06:06 PM
How come almost everyone has 10 or so HP? Seems a bit odd to start at virtually nothing.
I guess I'm looking for how exactly these level thingies are determined..
EDIT: Kinda annoying how I lost all my dragoon equips and wind elem. Worked hard for 'em. Well, kinda.
EDIT EDIT: Ooh. Sweet Quick Edit system. I like.
RE: Upgrade to 1.21 - E-mouse - 10-25-2006 06:07 PM
I stand corrected. Durr. I seriously need to stay on a regular sleep schedule...
It's kinda weird how almost everyone has like 0 HP, though.
RE: Upgrade to 1.21 - shaventalz - 10-25-2006 06:09 PM
33 HP posting this, let's see what happens.
EDIT: Still 33.
RE: Upgrade to 1.21 - Shadowhunter - 10-25-2006 06:11 PM
*pops some Medicinal Herb's Medicinal Herbs*
You gain 0 HP!
Durnit.
EDIT: Nope. No HP, MP, or EXP gain.

How does any of this work? Is it based on post lenght? If you start a new thread? How long you hafve been a member? What your name and sig is?

How many lines does it take to get to the crunchy bits of the gauges?

I can't say the stats mod impresses me much at all. It's just a bunch of esoteric numbers whose calculation is too obscure to serve as any sort of status symbol, which doesn't affect anything. At least the inventory mod could make people look cool once we figured out how to make custom items. But I have to say the HP/MP/EXP is really just a waste of sidebar space.
Instead, put back the CMC name and Text Under Avatar.
RE: Upgrade to 1.21 - E-mouse - 10-25-2006 06:40 PM
I'm with Milo on this one - stat mods like that are useless unless they clearly indicate something relevant to the forums. The equipment mod was mildly entertaining, especially after figuring out custom equipment, but this is mostly confusing.
RE: Upgrade to 1.21 - Shadowhunter - 10-25-2006 06:43 PM
And I still say the Group line needs to be burned. >_>
RE: Upgrade to 1.21 - shaventalz - 10-25-2006 06:49 PM
Agreed (still) on the group line, and the EXP mod looks fairly worthless. Colorful, but worthless.
Not sure if I'd want the equipment back or not, though.
RE: Upgrade to 1.21 - Caswin - 10-25-2006 07:16 PM
Inentory > Stats.  And I didn't even figure out how to make custom stuff.
That, and the stats, aside from not serving much purpose already (even if there is a certain novelty in being a higher level than Webrunner), take up a lot of space - I've always thought my avatar stretched stuff enough, and my next version was planned to be smaller, but...
EDIT: ...bwaaah!  Where'd my "Master of the Obscure" text go? D:
RE: Upgrade to 1.21 - Shadowhunter - 10-25-2006 07:18 PM
Yeah, the stats are colorful but not cool. I say Inventory is better.

That... doesn't leave much.
RE: Upgrade to 1.21 - E-mouse - 10-25-2006 08:18 PM
... except space for more new, interesting custom text.
I'm still fairly neutral about having the inventory mod back or not - it's fun, but takes up a fair bit of space and it won't be at its best until exploits are dealt with.
Other stuff:
- I love the 'return to forum' thread after posting; I did that by default on EZBoard, and while it isn't exactly bad to be forced to review your posts afterwards, it got annoying to scroll/inner-link back up to the top of the page in order to go back to the subforum you posted in.
- On the other hand, I DON'T like the text type change much - it seems a bit larger on my screen and makes all the pages bigger. Plus, it's messed up a lot of text on the forums - it looks like the Australian or European 'space' characters get somehow turned into question marks. Or maybe that's mostly the special characters used in Nightwind's sig...

I'm trying to locate where in the style options I can set the font for things to make them the old font (which i dont rememeber what it was)

RE: Upgrade to 1.21 - Lunar Bluestar - 10-25-2006 10:47 PM
Hm, well, if I had to make a choice between Equip or Stats, I would choose Equip. But if we (I mean webrunner) can edit the status bar to be smaller, and fit the Equip with it, that would look cool.
Damn, I'm tempted to learn the code for it just so I could fix that.
Hey, is there a website that has lessons for learning the code for it?
RE: Upgrade to 1.21 - Darg - 10-26-2006 12:24 AM
Amongst the other things mentioned, I like how the Quick Reply background is now forced white. The way I have my system colors, similar backgrounds are a dark navy blue, while the text is a golden orange, but for some reason, here the background was navy and the text was black, which either required me squinting to see what I was typing (or highlighting it) to look for typos, or changing my system colors back and forth. Glad that's moot now; granted, I'd rather have it look like my system settings, but at least both colors are forced now, instead of just one.
* Darg applauds.
Edit: The "/me" feature still works, and Quick Edit is freaking sweet.
