Rc Errors in Windows 8?

[Admins]

It would still help to say what you don't like about it. The external RC is not the perfect Windows text editor either.

It's not, but it's only a couple features away. I.e. code collapsing.

Off the top of my head these stand out:

1. Have to login on client. I know you can roll a 'RC' version of the Graal client.
2. No OS Native Theme.
3. Inherits all the problems (Highlighting issues are huge) we currently have with Graal GUI Objects, that haven't been fixed for a year now.

If you actually had to use it for a week or two instead of external RC (another issue we have because we've heard you're rolling your own fixed versions of RC2.exe and leaving us with the 06 model) you would see all these flaws, and likely more.

We understand you want a push for in-client tools but it's been over 4-5 years since the last client update and the amount of progress made since there is minimal, and there's been no releases or updates that really convince players it's a good idea.

In that amount of time you could of easily fixed our issues with our existing tools and we would be much happier for it.

Would it be possible to make it pop out into an external window, kind of like the playerlist does? I think people tend to like the fact that it doesn't require you to be logged into the client itself all the time. Personally, I keep RC in my system tray most of the time, and open it up when I need to edit stuff on the server.

If there's one program that shouldn't be abandoned for a totally scripted one, it would be RC. A lot of the functions it has are really nice.
