i hate the new graphics. all they do is confuse me. and the sound is so annoying. how do i get rid of it. oh, and when i try to pause the game, it always skips a few hours. because of the neccesity to pause on 0:00 without screwing up the events and ai, this is a HUGE problem

1) For the graphics I don't know, your request is too generic
2) For sounds, simply delete the content of Darkest Hour\Mods\Darkest Hour Full\sfx\wave: the sounds of Vanilla HOI2 will be automatically loaded;
3) I guess the game is going too fast, simply reduce the speed.

There is nothing wrong with people complaining (so long as the complaints are legitimate), that is how you help improve stuff. He is the only one I have seen complain about the new graphics afaik. He cannot be complaining about the map though, so I assume he is talking about the unit pics and such.

The game pausing thing might be that he is using a very old computer or running way too many applications. It's not a very resource-hungry game.

"It's not what you say, but how you say it". I just can't stand people bashing other peoples work as if there was nothing involved in creating it. Even if you dislike something, you don't need to be insolent. If you think that posts like his "help improve stuff", then I ask: How?

Like making completely unrelated and inflammatory posts in a thread for no real reason?

Point!
It won't happen again. Thank you for pointing out my errors!
I wrote in affect...I will leave my "inflammatory" behaviour at the door next time around.

However I think people should present their criticism in a more humble and creative way.
I don't find threads starting with the phrase "I hate..." very constructive.

I didn't say he was improving it with his post. :p Just saying it is good for people to complain. Though you are right that it is bad to completely poo-poo someone's hardwork (I believe there are about thirty people on the dev team, so it's insulting all of them if you do use harsh language as the OP did. It seems like most of his issues were a problem either with his comp, a personal taste in music and idk, maybe he found the aircraft graphics confusing. They are a bit odd if you don't read the little aircraft types in the pic.

You people spend too much time on internet!

Indeed, it causes one to make use of ad hominem attacks much more. :p Also, I now demand a detailed report of your weekly activites with close attention to all internet use. :p

Panzer, could you elaborate on the pausing thing? I'm thinking now you meant the autosave. You just turn that off (click Options on the menu and Autosave will be right there) if it is skipping too much and save at your leisure. Other than that, I can't really see what the problem would be, because these are the sysreqs:

Mighty Wikipedia said:
Pentium III with 800 MHz, 128 MB RAM, 1 GB of free hard drive space, 4 MB DirectX-compatible video card, DirectX-compatible sound card.

I don't think any of us have comps that don't meet that criteria, so it couldn't be the computer.
