and Stefan already has a way to disable most default things (default walking, rating, and Q menu) but I think he just edit's the g-server for that, which is why on 2k2, when the npc server is down, people without weapons already loaded freeze (like when they logon) BUT a way to enable/disable things like rating at will with script would be nice
and back to the topic, graal is slowly evolving into a game that will use more and more special effects, just like computers are gradually getting better and better, I think right now it would be hard to buy a computer from any 'good' computer companys (dell, gateway, etc etc) that would not support light effects on graal, right now tyhm makes it so if you don't have light effects enabled, you get a lamp so when it is night time, people can still see you, but the players still get to 'cheat' a little bit since they will be able to walk around freely without 'bumping' into walls since they will be able to see the level like it was day time while for others it will be pitch black, I personally think an ability to not allow people who cant support directx stuff to play would be a step towards the right direction for playerworlds that will have a lot of eyecandy (shadows, spell effects, etc etc)

Yes, but I think the real thing is is that people don't want to be penalized for having low-end systems. However, that is not our fault. The biggest problem anyone with a low-end system has is getting a new computer. Most parents are very quick to dismiss the idea of a new computer since they spent so much money on the previous one...they obviously feel its capable of doing everything no matter what.
Its a little difficult to educate those kinds of people because they don't completely understand how a computer works persay. Most just believe what the clerk pitches to them because they don't know any better...all that clerk is interested in is getting his or her commission for a big sale.
