Will the crisper font rendering be returned?

why would they return it??? they just implemented it...

I assume it was reverted because it proved problematic in some situations. I hope it can be unreverted a running smoothly for all some day

Maybe, in the (unlikely, since it seems to have mostly problems on Windows) case that someone fixes it.

why does this have problems ? and why mostly in windows... what is the governing factors ???

and why mostly in windows... what is the governing factors ???

Poor support for OpenGL in the Windows drivers is a big factor. ATI's OpenGL drivers would be number 2.

If I got it right nvidias new driver comes up with better OpenGL support:
Driver 280.26:
"Supports OpenGL 3.3 for GeForce 8-series and later GPUs.
Supports OpenGL 4.1 on GeForce 400 series and later GPUs.
Supports single GPU and NVIDIA SLI technology* on DirectX 9 and OpenGL."

I've been thinking about units that don't sit still at their destination and I think I have a good idea

if ([unit within x tiles of dest]) [don't bump other units];
or
if ([unit tries to bump me] && [bumping unit within x tiles of dest]) [don't move];

Not sure if this would work or not and I'm on a trip so I can't easily look for my self but its a idea

thankyou!!!! i knew someone had a possible answer....

en-mass groups that wont work though, you'll end up with a whole lot of units around the edge of a large group still not within X tiles of destination bumping units also not within X tiles.

Perhaps also what could be taken in to account is to take in to look at the number of units in the group, to get what X tiles should be, in order to sure there are enough tiles to sit on?

Then what happens if you're not in a large, open place but rather valleys and canyons, X tiles from destination could be just the other side of a impassable ridge, accessible via another route. That being the case, another clause to make sure units dont stray more than X tiles away from destination in order to reach it and be still, would be required, and, that that would probably be a more suitable place for them than actually being X *tiles* away, just close enough.

And THEN...

etc

Mind: Blown.

you just hurt my head!!! thanks.
