RKLauncher > Match "original" render

When RKlauncher goes over video rendering, it "hides" it with a shadow.

??WHY THIS THREAD SO??

Probably because it doesn't append on Mac OSX

Okay guys...it doesn't append because Apple uses an opengl unified engine...

Okay...Windows has dozen of API and is a compilation of crappy coded softwares...

But, RKLauncher is very well coded ^^ (it doesn't eat billions of RAM and doesn't slow down with time )

raduking, can you planifieda such bug fix for RKLauncher 4.0?

I know it will not be easy ^^

Very good work bud

No bugfixes possible, it's due to the nature of how the desktop is composed + the videodriver.

#280289

AppleCrow, are you the main Windows developer or how do you know that it has crappy code?

#280481

Hm, I lost you after "goes over video rendering". Can you rephrase is? How about providing an English translation?

#280483

AppleCrow, are you the main Windows developer or how do you know that it has crappy code?

GDI is like 10+ years old with very few core improvements (and a lot of patchwork) since it was created.

The font rendering alone is horrible in Windows. Clear type helps a bit, but even with clear type, the output quality is lightyears behind the quality of font rendering in OS X.

All these things are no secrets. Even MS knows it. They don't develop Avalon, because they are bored and have no other things to do...

i think OS X is the light, and all the Bill products are the black night

The fact that Windows GDI and parts of DirectX are crap, compared to what other operating systems (especially OS X) have to offer, should be common knowledge

GDI is like 10+ years old with very few core improvements (and a lot of patchwork) since it was created.

The age of a code has nothing to do with crappiness... It should be common knowledge.

if mac OSX such much better than win GDI + Direct X, how come games are just plainsuxcks in osX ? How come not many more game on mac after osX release? maybe because osX just pretty but painfully slooooowww .

no, there are less game on MacOS X beacuse there are less user than Windows

it's called buisness strategy. like hackers, they want to make as much money as possible. so target who? the billion populated windows or the 250 million mac users?

you meant crackers, not hackers, didn't you?

#281608

no, there are less game on MacOS X beacuse there are less user than Windows

Plus I think it would be safe to assume that a large majority of mac users don't buy them for games.

And the majority of pc buyers (corporations) don't buy them for games either.

+ Macs tend to be much more expensive than PCs

#281885

but there are alternatives to supercomputer though. also, why is the gameboy advance, psp, game gear (still play it), xbox, gamecube, ps2, and all those other stuff for that is under one third the price of a mac mini?

#281901

+ Macs tend to be much more expensive than PCs

it's getting a lot cheaper these days, ibook and Mac mini are easy enough to afford.

#281902

+ Macs tend to be much more expensive than PCs

Only because the Mac market is much smaller.

If the Mac was more common, then the prices surely would decrease methinks.

with 1600 euros you can buy:

- a wonderful mac

- A powerful pc

you have only to choose between these two opportunity

#281915

I can buy 2 very powerful PCs with that money...

thanx... but no...

#281935

check my laptop configuration in my signature:

it was 1400 USD not Euro

#281936

mine was 1200 euro:

- P4 2.0 Ghz

- 256 mb DDR266 (now 1Gb DDR400)

- 60 Gb Maxtor

- nVidia 440 MX (now 6600 GT)

- DVD-ROM drive

- CD-RW drive

now with 1200 euro i could buy an Athlon64 cpu and others powerful components

or a beautiful mac, of course

#281939

999 Euro:

- Athlon 64 3400+

- 1 GB DDR400

- 200 GB S-ATA Samsung

- Ati Radeon 9800 SE 256 MB

- DVD +/- RW DL

...will there every be a Mac which has the same components for the same price?

#281950

Larsen2k4 you forgot one important thing - software. Software makes your computer great, not hardware. And what can you tell about Windows comparing with Mac OS X?

#282208

Hey guys, don't be so expansive. Each one has the right to chose the type of computer in own needs (some would like fast for gaming but some for main reason - computing numbers or graphics). Of course, the graphic interface should be as friendly as it is possible (without crushes) and for each one of us it should be FAST. I think not only the price and hardware but also the sofware (here meaning in the first place the operating system) should be handy, no matter who's the producer (best could be opensource or ... at least freeware).
