That's more of a personal preference than a problem. I doubt that it will be changed.

Highlighting is broken, yes, not on Mac though. Not sure why, but that would be why I forgot about it. Uhm, as for the playerlist, I haven't ever experienced that issue, I always have my playerlist and Graal window in the same spot (probably why).

I didn't really find much of a performance difference between v5 and v6 so I'm not really forced to pick one for better performance. Also the maximize thing means if I minimize Graal to my taskbar when I open the window back up the playerlist remains hidden until I also bring it back up. It's fairly annoying for someone like me who is constantly changing windows.

It's funny that I hear that so much, but it doesn't change the fact that it is sorely broken on Windows.

Yeah, always funny how the operating system most players use is the one that's broken.

The playerlist not sticking to the main window when minimizing/restoring Graal and the text highlighting issue are, in my opinion and from a player's view, the only things that need to be fixed before an actual release. Besides that, v6 is working quite fine.

Uh, yeah? Me along with others who don't want to use v6. I've never been a fan of Graal's inbuilt Windows, so changing the old ones just worsens it. I'm aware you can pick themes but that's just dodging the issue.

Font, playerlist/profile/pm Windows, etc. Windows open in awkward places, not sure how to describe it.

You do realize this won't change, right?

Ah yes, I had that problem on windows too. On another note, Graal does a few awesome things on Mac OS, it's pretty nice.

It's the change from v5 to v6 that the majority of players complain about, so it should be significant enough to be looked into.

[Tim_Rocks]

To be honest, you guys are going to complain no matter what happens. Which only means your complaint will be taken seriously close to never.

Pretty much, I suggest just getting used to it, I hated v6 at first, now after using it for almost a year, I'm very used to it and actually prefer it.

If only there weren't an entire thread where many people posted countless bugs and quirks that they desired to be fixed to make v6 more accessible to them... It's as if people DO care to try to get v6 out but are largely ignored...

Yes, I do realize that. I also realize the fonts will stay screwed.

hello!

as it has been over 12 months since this thread was created can someone tell me if there has been any updates on graal being accessible through steam?

[RegretZ]

I don't think it's gonna happen anytime soon man. Sorry.

You can add games that aren't on the Steam store to your steam library. Just press:
Games>Add a Non-Steam Game to My Library

The whole idea of iOS servers being accessable via Steam seems pretty cool. I don't see too many MMOs on Steam, and adding Graal will certainly boost the playercount a bit. It would be a good thing to consider, if Graal ever manages to pass the greenlight and pays the fees.

All-in-all, I don't see it happening, but hey, Graal made it to Android, why not Steam?
