I am not sure if it is possible, but I think it's a good idea. You can play iclassic Graal on facebook, and iclassic is also playable on the Graal client. What if we made it so we could play all the servers through the forums. So you can just log on like you do for facebook and play via the forums through an application? It may not be supported by the forums I am guessing, but I think it would be a cool idea. Then I could post on the forums, play Graal, and not have to switch back and forth. Also, you could then have special alerts on the forums for stuff going on in-game which could be beneficial. Just a thought.

its not needed wtf

why cant people understand that theyre either on a computer or on their portable devices. theres only two versions graal needs - the pc one (ya im hating on the flash fb as i think its pointless when we already have a superior normal client) and mobile specific ones (iOS, android, etc. each prob configured slightly differently)

no point in fb flash, forum, etc.

I just thought it would be easier or players, especially on the go. If I go out of town or to a library I don't necessarily want to download Graal, but if I could play it on the forums then I wouldn't have to download anything. Minecraft does the same thing with a website client and a downloadable one as well. Maybe it's not needed, but it certainly would be useful.

Most browser clients have tabs these days. You should be able to switch back and forth without a problem. Unless you have a very outdated browser? There is really no need for a Forum Graal, its pretty pointless.

I play Graal in full screen due to RAM issues. So having to press ctrl - enter every time I want to view the web is time consuming and also pointless. It was just a suggestion, it doesn't even have to be on the forums. It could be on www.graalonline.com for all I care, but I think we should have the option of playing via web browser.

I'm no expert, but how would running Graal in fullscreen eat up less RAM than running it in windowed, especially when windowed is the default?

I am not entirely sure, all I know is I have 1.6 gb of ram. When I am in full screen 800 x 800 resolution I have no lag. However, when I am in the regular screen I can barely move. It might be caused by text I think, because if I set the text to size 1 I can move at a normal pace in the regular mode. It might not be the RAM, but it's definitely something.

Maybe your GFX card isn't kicking in when you're in window mode for whatever reason. Graal's v5 text is incredibly poor when it comes to performance but I played just fine with less RAM and in window mode stretched out to more than that.

Update your drivers etc.

Some android phones are even better than cheap laptops.

Neat. What does the 5.xx represent?

Graal version. 5.12 is the current version, anything past that is a v6 beta. The particle engine was improved significantly in the v6 beta, which accounts for some of the FPS difference.

Some? You mean all of the FPS difference. If only v6 was more visually refined.

Graal version, I believe.
