What part of "GO TO THE IRC CHANNEL FOR A OFFICIAL RESPONCE DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND"


Or "IT HAS BEEN SAID MANY TIMES IT WILL BE DONE WHEN IT IS DONE DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND"

miskellr: You're official post from an official Decal Dev source (me) is...


Edited listen to everyone else. They are spot on. It'll be done when it's done, and until then, we'll continue doing what we're doing and attempting to fix it.


So stop asking, read the official Decal Information thread post that is stickied at the top of this board, and wait patiently for our post when we say it's done. Your kinds of post aggrivate us and take up un-needed time when the answer has been posted perfectly well by COUNTLESS other people, and you could have found it on your own without even asking if you had done a little READING on these forums (as your question has been answered already).

-- Major Cleanup --


Please No More ETA requests or comments about people making ETA requests. The decal developers have given the official answer of "We don't know" and when that changes I am sure they will post an update on the sticky thread on the top.

just curious if my question was so crazy and not possible that it does not get an answer or if it just got looked over from dealing with all the flame. i ll repost.


just curious if anyone has thought to ask to or has thought to see if instead of drawing decal into it's own window if instead decal could be drawn into the help windows.


i know 0 about most of this...only what i have read on here and the blogs on the other sites. but it just seems logical to me to instead of haveing decal draw itself into it's own window use a preexsisting one.


or maybe this would be too difficult to do.


any thoughts decal developers?

kronik: your post has already been answered before you even posted it.


we cannot really "use" what AC already has to draw decal.. we know what we're doing, and we know a lot about how this all works.

And, yes, we looked at the possibility.


Although in someway it would be theoretically possible (and I would not be surprised to see TPAs using that someday), it does NOT easily connect to Decal.

Just first wanted to say thanks to all the decal devs. I'm happy to see the latest in the update thread about a possible upcoming framework for managed code so an added thanks to Mekle and parad0x for working on this. Patiently awaiting the next update. I just love to see that post number go up.

sorry Drakier...did not see where it had been answered already.


Thanks Gouru for the answer. I kinda figured that Decal could use it, i just thought since it already is something that draws into the game that it would be easy to draw things in it. just wonder how hard it would be or if it would make since to have a translator program run inbetween...i dont really know just kinda just asking...in a nice way.

The help system doesn't really draw into the game the way decal does.
