Feedback Polls v0.13

I appreciate everyone taking the time to give their input.

Mod Naming: I was all set to go with Bleak Horizons, but a better option has presented itself. I've been looking for a setting that interests me to continue the workshop's development and Dawg of War (creator of Silverstag) was looking for a new base to build his setting within. We've decided to team up and create a merger of the two using the features of the workshop running within the setting of Silverstag. This is what the mod will be renamed to. A major benefit of this is that Dawg will have a lot of flexibility in focusing on the setting related aspects of his modding (the look and feel) while I can focus on the "under the hood" aspects (content and performance) of the mod.

Mod Hosting: We will be staying with the Nexus as our host of choice. It has worked out well and I can't see any reason to switch from it now. The SVN option has a lot of benefits, but the majority of players probably don't want to deal with the hassle of setting it up and I can respect that.

Difficulty Scaling: Most of the votes push the difficulty scaling at around 30%, but a number want closer to 50%. Given the weight of each of vote I'm going to gear the different scales to support a 35% spread. 65% (easy), 100% (normal), 135% (hard), 170% (very hard).

For those of you who've tried the cinematic compilation in the standard version of v0.13, what do you think? Should we keep this as part of the standard mod? Yes, I'd rather it be kept. No, I preferred the native graphics over this.

One of the concerns with putting graphics changes in was how much performance might be impacted. Did you feel that the latest version with the cinematic compilation was noticeably slower or about the same? I can't see any loss in performance vs. v0.12. Performance was definitely less, but I'll still use the standard version of the mod. Performance was lessened enough that I switched to the basic version of the mod.

I'm willing to make a switch over to a new banner pack if folks want that as a majority, but it will be a permanent switch. The options are as follows: Clan Banner Pack (what the mod currently uses) Better Banner Pack @ http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,107008.0.html Native Banners

Thanks folks! Windyplains
