| Poll - Fullscreen? (Survey for add-on usability) |
| (1/5) > >> |
| Truce:
Quick poll to see how many users play in fullscreen vs windowed mode. I've been working on some gamemode ideas lately, and while I can assume most players use certain default controls (e.g. the brick cart is mapped to the number keys), I cannot do the same about certain settings. In this case, whether or not the playerbase leans a certain way will decide whether or not I can rely on a specific add-on interface. Discussion questions: * How do you feel about downloading GUIs to play a certain gamemode? Is it a hassle, or as long as a server provides a link (whether or not this is done through RTB), does that make up for it? If it depends on the quality of the gamemode/GUI, what makes it worth it for you? * If you play in fullscreen, would switching to windowed mode instead of downloading a GUI be more or less of a hassle? Are there technical limitations preventing you from doing so (bad/old computer)? Would you prefer just alt-tabbing to see another window instead of switching modes? Feel free to post about the questions above in this thread or any other thoughts you may have. Since many gamemode developers truly want to make your playing experience enjoyable, this info goes a long way to giving them feedback that can be applied to all gamemodes, rather than on a case-by-case basis. Thanks. |

I preferably use fullscreen and because of the computer switching to windowed mode would cause problems as blockland can crash easily. |

Downloading client sided GUI's for a gamemode makes the experience more lively. I personally do not mind it. But if I do have to get a GUI i expect it to be a pretty action packed gamemode. |

Eegh I hate fullscreen. When I crash massive stuff happens and I have to turn off my computer. |
