Yes!!

The user should, instead , start NeoLoader and feel that is already running and perfectly working, without touching anything. :)

It doesn't mean that we can't add a switchable settings for country flag, they don't use a lot of CPU, will stay off by default, and who want them can activate. I like them because they makes UI more "eye friendly" then a ITA-ESP-GER...

p.s. As said in 1st post, is not a priority.

In the network NeoMule is used (and was used) maybe from less than 1% of users.
It's a good reason for not replicate this strategy.

I don't agree, and I still not see any problem to add a switch, that is surely not a priority. Many eMule mods in fact got this feature.

Also uT had it. The memory usage for those small flag icons is really irrelevant.

for handling this type of request, i suggested a different mode: http://board.neoloader.com/feature-requests/3361-slider-gui-requests.html#post16953


For this request, one solution would be to turn on the column of the Country only to the user "Advanced / Developer", and show a string or a flag icon depending on the slider position.
I see no inconsistency with this solution.

I don't agree... all that chaos for a simple switch using a checkbox...

1 simple checkbox for 1 option.
In future, 100 checkboxes for 100 options?

With my solution , 1 slider for ALL options. I don't see any chaos in "Poor/Normal/Rich" strings.

The slider is so much restrictive for an expert user. And actually there are not 100 options, in future, IF we'll reach 100 option, we could use the slider.

in future if you do not have a developer with much time to waste, you can not change anything. The changes of code & GUI require a lot of time.

If the "medium user" see it ugly he will not just try it.

We will not add country flags anytime soon, even if ts not a major waist of CPU and memory, its a waist of Developmant time, and thats bad enough.
Live free or die trying!
