(It would appear as a black area, or so).

Sort of like a window in a window. This would solve the issue of not being able to move the PM window(s) outside of the Graal window.

I like that, I don't like the debug window and such being opened inside the game display. But would the space be blanked in fullscreen? I tend to use fullscreen in Linux because I lag too much if I do otherwise.

The playerlist is probably one of the main reasons why people currently often don't use v3. V3 is often much faster and should solve some lag problems that players have. I am currently working on improving the playerlist for Graal3D/3.1, may be you could post some more ideas here so that I know what I should add
(thinks like customize the groups (not just admin,guild,buddy), display pms of people who logged out, display if someone has read the message)

I was suggesting the removal of the playerlist feature altogether. A chatbox with /commands would be so much more effecient. :o

Why? the way it is now is cross platform.

You know how when you're on player and RC at the same time, and you get multiple PMs to both? Well, wouldn't it be nice if there was PM-Forwarding, where you can set your RC to automatically send the PMs to your player instead of having to switch back and forth between the two?

Aha! I think we should have an attachments feature to the ye olde PM system. This would enable quick transfer of levels and imags amongst other things which would help greatly rather then having to use email or an instant messanger program.

That's looking like the Graal3D chat :)

That would be a lot better than clicking toall's constantly and maybe have a
transparent setting so people can see whats going on in that area. It can
probably be scripted though I am sure...

Either way, I just think it would be more effecient that way, no reason to load an extra window, and on top of that, it would eliminate the horribly mess and useless names below characters and drawing text over their heads, that was by far the most retarded way a chat system could have possibly been implemented and it made me laugh to see large numbers of people in the same spot all saying stuff right up until the days I quit playing, talk about a word scramble. ^^

It's not like I care one way or the other. I don't even play graal anymore and after my account runs empty I won't be updating it anymore. :whatever:

I'm tired of seeing graal fail miserably in originality time and time again, maybe I should make a thread for the future improvement of graal's creative concepts team (or lack thereof), they appear to keep deciding it's easier and more cost effective to copy everyone else than to actually do any work.

:asleep:
