I have a computer with an old s3 virge graphics card which (currently, as far as i know) will not support GL at 16 bit color. is there any way to
a) run the Screensaver without showing the protein... this would be good because it would save precious cycles on the slow machine, or
b) suppress the warning box about how 8 bit color mode could be buggy. it pops up when the SS starts and AFAIK the thing wont start crunching until you hit ok, which of course you dont do if youre not at the computer. in other words theres not much point to having it there at all.
it wont work at other color depths, and running the text client all the time (ie when people are actually using it) is not an option because of the low ram in the thing. is there something that can be done about the message box or something that can just suppress all SS output at all?
thx as always :)
