Not everyone is going to switch to Graal 3D. I for one prefer Graal to remain 2D, as that's what makes it unique from other games, to me.

It seems to defy the hardware, doesn't it? Apparently 56k modems are capable of higher than 56Kbps, as I've seen this 12KBps download on my uncle's computer. He has a 56k v90 modem. It is NOT ISDN.

Haha, yeah, Road Runner is pretty nice, except for the POS upload. :/ You have to remember that not everyone lives in the US though. Also, to be exact, Road Runner advertises 3072Kbps, however, I usually get around 3000Kbps exactly. Unless they don't consider a KB or MB to be a multiple of 1024, but 1000 instead.


..and I just realized this is getting way off topic. Oh well.

Ya know, I might bundle up some CDs and send them to needy 56ker Graalians (I don't know how legal this is though). I wouldn't mind so much.

Providing the updates are regular and not grossly huge, it would probably be nice for some 56k users to have the core files on a disk.

90MB? o.o overnight and it would be done, but hey cd's could be cool. I have two iRO cd's. xP If unixmad/stefan ever made graal online ones.. wow.

Stefan doesn't need to get on the list, he automatically has access

Wow, thanks for the news update. I mean, Googi must have thought Stefan wasn't allowed to play for some daft reason, right?

I uploaded some of my screenshots to http://g3d.neon-webdesign.de

Haha @ Loriel.

[Loriel]

He was attacking me while I was trying to post my screenshots, only to realise I set it to save screenshots as png, which made them almost 1mb, so I tried to install gimp, but the mostly supported Windows gimp installer needs for some stupid reason another Gtk distribution than I installed, so I had to install the freaky other one, which renamed the other Gtk dlls, then install gimp, uninstall the new Gtk package and rerename the DLLs.

You don't bother to quote people so non-hybrid/threaded users know who the hell you're talking to, so why should we care about your tree bs?

[Python523]

I think maybe Stefan and Unixmad should look into some kinda deal... like current VIPs may request a CD or pay a small amount for it and include a CD in future purchases of VIP

Some of us don't need a CD and can download very aptly 200 to 300 megs in about 30 mins or so.. I can at least.

He said REQUEST..... Many people CAN'T download 90mByte, because of their connection..

[Hairballmunky]

*thanks god for ordering Gold/VIP* Unfortunately, I might need a CD...DAMN YOU LOW BANDWIDTH CABLE! DAAAAAAAMN YOUUUUU!

[Crono]

They can keep their computers on for 12 hours then.

[VeX_RaT_Boy]

That's expensive..

[Crono]

In America you pay monthly, you dont pay every hour like you do here.

[Ibonic]

aw

i ..think i like my ISP in situations like this

For all ISP's?

Dialup here in norway, you pay for how long you are connected to the internet.

Same in Sweden. A majority in the USA (almost all in Texas) don't do the hourly thing. You pay every month and can go on as long as you want. Only thing that sucks is that well, It's dialup. IT SUCKS PERIOD

[XJOKERX]

Well 70mb took my computer 4 minutes so I think 90 would be 7 or 8-10 at max. I'm fine with it.

[LordZen]

AOL charges by the hour I think, or charges extra if your online more than some amount. But AOL shouldnt count as an isp, lol. It sucks, I'm glad I havent used it for years and years.

I'm using comcast right now, I download about 380 kbps usually, and its a flat monthly rate.

Greetings my fellow comcast brethen!

It's great isn't it?

[VeX_RaT_Boy]

I got monthly on my ADSL connection at home.. Dialup at dads house (ISDN).

[dlang]

Hmm, I should be able to download 90 megs, in 2-4 Minutes.

[VeX_RaT_Boy]

Same for me too..

[Polo]

ADSL paid monthly, no restrictions. Im sure 56k'ers could use getright or somthing :/

[Crono]

Maybe 56kers can download it at a friends house or at school then burn it?

[Milkdude99]

I have cable and do not pay by the hour, I pay monthy for "unlimited access". I am connected to the net anytime my comp is on.

[Spark910]

Well it's only 90MB I assume as all the files are already in the zip... im sure they could knock off about half the filesize if it wasn't all included and you downloaded it off the servers... but it would be best to download it all in one go and none in game

Why would you pay by the hour?! It's a freaking cable connection!

Why don't you pay attention to what is being posted? My post was in response to this post.
