Probably
Its not always intentional but some things are just so trivial in the whole picture of things it drives you to despair

Minor drama is all. Get yourself a bag of popcorn, pull up a seat and enjoy the show. :lol:
edit: i think Kapt should derail the drama and put up another teaser to drool over. :D

Nah, it´s just you. ;)

Anyways, to the topic.

Why it is so hard to make a fresh install of SHIII to the DEFAULT PATH, add GWX and then just copy&paste the install to where ever you want? I do that all the time and have had no problems with it.

Strawman. No-one has requested GWX be changed.

the simpler and straight forward we keep the install of GWX the LESS chance ppl will have of it fúcking up.
True. No-one is requesting the installation be made complex, merely that the user can change the installation path. Your average user with only one installation would simply accept the default offered and click Next.

When we hope to surpass the 200 000 D/L's of GW1.1a with GWX, I think you would agree that your personal beef is pretty pathetic in the grand scheme of things and is a very wee small minor issue that has no real bearing on how we should release GWX.
Argumentum ad numerum fallacy.

PS: 200 000 D/L's is a conservitive number btw, IIRC the last time I checked the N° of D/L's it was close to 500 000. 1 person with a beef v's 200 000 to 400 000+ happy users, you do the maths!
If they're so happy with GW's installation procedure then why is the GWX team going to such lengths with GWX's installation procedure?

Someone should make a poll about this. :rotfl:

Edit: This reminds me about the Windshield wiper-gate at the RSC forums before GTR 2 came out. OMG.

It really seems pretty logical to me. They're making it idiot proof. Those who need to know how to do something else can just come to Subsim.com for all the answers to their problems :know: :ping:

as long as they know how to read. :lol:

If you'd been keeping up you'd know full well my point is that the autoinstaller as described unnecessarily inconveniences some users whereas if it adhered to standard practices it would suit all users and still meet your aim of simplifying the installation procedure.

That's not what the project manager said.

It would indeed be daft so it's a good thing my refutation of your particular assertion is incidental to my argument.

It's not a cigar?? Well it that case, thanks, but it's been a while. I don't think I'll need that much. :|\\

Ducimus 10-31-06 10:35 PM
