Although I am not against this "particular" workaround, I do share some of their concerns and they expressed their opinions. It was not a "pety" comment and answering "have a break" is... maybe not appropriate? I really really wished, people were more moderate with their posts.
I do know. and this workaround it's not exactly an UI "tweak". You may discuss this as much as you want, but it does not change a few facts:
* if the animations are no longer distributed, or not official, or not enabled it is a bit "fishy" to redistribute them without the approval of the owner. A lot of programs have restrictions regarding distribution (e.g. you need to redistribute the installer, no individual files).
* there are reasons for this. One day, changes in the engine may cause old animations that have not been "updated" to cause subtle bugs. And providing support can become a nightmare. Of course, someone may see that if they enable the phoenix, they crash. Someone may not realize the slow memory leaks are due to subtle animation errors...
* this hack is innocent. Maybe next "removes walls in wire frame mode".
* the company operating the service is entitled to have a "unified policy" against this kind of mods.
I am not against this, do as you may please, as long as *my* game is not affected, but there are reasons to be against.

Well, ok, the Raid was planned yes, but I just took about 4-5 hours for editigsygma wrote:Yeah hard to compare the two really.
Ours was spontaneous and only 20 or so people for one.
Yours seemed planned, edited and had more time to work with hehe.
Still both pwn
