Please keep a good tone. No one wants to read flamewars.
I also read these posts and they don't help me at all.

Everyone has his own opinion but there is no need to attack each other.

But you could have changed the background picture while you were at it, it's getting pretty boring.
But I only have this picture :S

That's a bad idea to make such things, we have so many developers in our community, anyone could do it, but only you can modify client and server... Why don't you focus on fixing bugs, when someone else ( I believe someone like VirtualTT would do it, or even i could ) could make and 3rd party apps.

please focus on releasing the new soldat version, a lot of people need it
It's too late now I already did it.
And I felt like doing it.
But I'll try to focus more on bugfixing now.

Thanks for the feedback!

Can't it be changed? :/
If anything, you could just go play with bots for 5 minutes, and take a few screens.

My current idea would be:
Keep the image which is inside the exe file but when you see startbg.bmp in the same folder use that instead.

Sounds good?

Yeah, that would be nice.

Ok, done.

I think maybe he was implying that you may post your own submissions for suggested new default background for it. But I could be completely wrong here.

Remember to try to enjoy doing your work. Thank you.

Nah, it's a nice lol to be had every once in a while.
I know that it is by definition a "bug", and has to be removed, but I'm kind of for letting it stay.

Try out the old beta 1.5.1.12 enesce released some time ago.
If its in there its not fixed in 1.5.1.

You are actually right. ;)

Even if he didn't - it's still the best way to go about it. This way community gets a chance to do something for Soldat too, and Shoozza could work on something else instead of looking for a new BG image.

However before we do that I think we need to decide on one more thing: Launcher size. Is it a good idea having it this small? Maybe it's worth making it a little bigger for the sake of larger mod list (or maybe remake a mod list into a dropdown menu).

sry for backstabbing ... but i got soldat now ...ermmm damne many years... the starter i did use in my ... how many years since 1.0 ? ...well i used it exact 1 time for trying a mod i download (which didnt work btw^^)

after that i didnt use the starter anytime... so whats the point to waste ur time on that? nobody use it and if some one does... he uses it exact 5 sec^^ to open soldat :P so its pointless / senceless to work on that - dont duck urself from the huge bucks :P face them and fix em !

anyway... looks good the starter... but yea... i think yaknow what im sayn^^

atleast it would be also bether doing my mod idea ^^ Admin/VIP Gosteks^^ x)

w/e its my point of view just :) keep it up atleast u do something!

The fact that you don't use doesn't mean NOBODY uses it. I use it all the time. Yes, you only see it for a short time when you start Soldat, but if you start Soldat several times a day every day - all those "short times" add up to one "big time".

Some people still use the starter, I do when I'm too lazy to copy and paste files.
Also, you have to take into mind the fact that newcomers will find the copy-paste way a tad too complicated for a game like Soldat.
