WOW! Lots of good feedback.
To address things in no particular order...
Packrat, I like the condensed index. Should make it quicker to get to an answer. And the double-postings are cross-indexes -- one solution may resolve multiple problems, so we list all the problems on the index pointing to the one solution. Just like the library, where things are catalogued by title, author, subject... all pointing to one book.
the_young_one, I like your thoughts too. I see that our previous discussion threads on this topic are no longer around; we went through a number of considerations, and you've brought up a few new things.
First, this is just the tech problems thread. Gameplay stuff is covered in the Best Tips thread, which we may revamp after this is done. None of the items in here should be construed as spoilers except indirectly. For example,noting there's a problem in the Cet-Kerah fight tells you there will be one eventually, but that's hard to get around. We'll just make sure not to tell you too much about it [img]smile.gif[/img]
Taking that into consideration, perhaps we ought to mention in the initial post that gameplay tips are in the other thread, and that if you can't find what you're looking for here, you might want to look over there.
And based on the way this index is shaping up, I don't think we need two indexes any more. It looks fairly easy to find an answer to a specific problem by simply reading, and with the categories in place, you can look around the entry you're in for other related problems.
I still think Win2000/XP issues should be a separate category since there are so many and they really cripple gameplay. Sure, someone could look for every individual symptom, but after the second or third thing I had to fix and restart, I might find something better to do... like clip my toenails [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Great job, all!
