alright, we've run into a connundrum recently - MA has introduced anti-aliasing into the EU fonts, and those cards that cannot support AA (mainly SiS intergrated graphics, from what i've read) now give a very strange look to text, to say the least
on the one hand, MA has ALWAYS stated "We test the Entropia Universe on ATI Radeon and Nvidia GeForce graphics cards" and has as their minimum system requirements "NVIDIA GeForce FX series or higher, ATI Radeon R300 Series" ... regardless of this fact, many other cards worked just fine, before the VU, either with their native driver, or with the drivers suggested by MA (nVidea, ATI)
now, after VU 8.12, many peeps cannot see the fonts properly in-game. some are able to simply upgrade their drivers and it works; others, im sure, have updated their video card to get it working; some are not able to do either and are simply dead in the water.
my question: Is it MA's prerogative to do what they will to graphics as long as they do not have to bump up the current system requirements of the game in order to do so, considering that the gfx requirements have been established for quite a long time?
