I got an idea, how about we gripe at and complain about anybody who posts something fun and interesting. That way we can discourage creativity and generosity.

GF already has people to carry out their policy policing. Unless you are one of those nice people, please [Reference to Nasty Habit removed].

And I repeat, thanks a million Xtar, we (most of us) appreciate your time and effort and willingness to share.

I cant recal exactly, but more than likely I think it had to do with either; Crashing the servers (doubt it was that), or more likely to reduce "system" requirements, as compared to the "current" animations takes up a little bit more processing power. :confused:

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.

I normally shouldnt reply... but guess you missed the part i beta'd this game and have a 2004 account....

ok so i wimped out and when Nevrax announced its Frenchi-chapter11, i bailed..
but i cam back,, fresh account, freash approach.


I didnt post to start a war, merely state there is no reason to throw a commment like "lets ban them" around...

right wrong indifferent, hard, easy, whatever.... it doesnt matter.

I was going to start a new post.. but i shall write it here.

I challenge ALL forum users to state there stance on Ryzom.

Are you here to support the game?
Or are you here to own some kinda selfish glory?

Turning on each other.. nit-picking.... it isnt going to make this better...


Attack me all you want... i really dont care...
I love this game.. and i shall play it tell the Servers are turned off.


But i try.. i really try.... not to take out my frustations (personal, work, ryzom, other), on other Atys homins....



Iphdrunk / Ani - this isnt targeted at you....

But seriously... it wasnt me that turned a great video post into a PETY (yes i wont back down on that word) post....

report me, hate me, i dont care.


Bring on the videos, bring on the community... and all those that want to focus on the negative.. go for it... as long as i can write here.. i will tell you to GROW UP!!!

awesome vid xtarsia!


on a side note, the video that is responsible for mine and 2 other subs was player made and they used the camera distance change to record it. player made videos help people come to the community as they actually want to see what real game play is like, not promotional videos.

Yours seemed planned, edited and had more time to work with hehe.

Still both pwn :D
Well, ok, the Raid was planned yes, but I just took about 4-5 hours for editig ;)
You get into "the flow" if you´ve done it enough times :D

And I agree with most others here.
