[QUOTE="SpudR, post: 273068, member: 54104"] Hmm... I am aware that MP supports almost everything if it's got some add ons - but I don't see the need to restrict forward progress for the few of us that have old(er) hardware. People just get high expectations for things that their technology just can't support (try playing a PS1 game on the PS2 - they tend to look rubbish due to the fact the older games don't know how to use the new hardware). This leads to instant disappointment and lots of "xxxx doesn't work" posts. Also the code gets pointlessly huge, and slower for things that are just not used on most systems. There's no point loading drivers for card going back to the year dot. Plugins are the way forward for that kinda thing! (IMHO). I guess the devs have a view and it's not my decesion to make :) Anyhow, this is getting a bit off topic ;) Both Monochrome and Indigo would make great default skins - maybe there is a poll to be had to see who uses what, and what the community at large think...
