I'd love to advice the devs on this if they are willing to do such thing?

PowerSports, good to see you have a reasonable side. As I said earlier, sorry if I came across agressively or insulting, that is totally not what I was trying to be. But hopefully you get the point that we were telling you the same thing all along. Anyway, enjoy the game, have patience, V6s will be there! Like you, I'm eagerly waiting for them, too!


Its aight holmes. I guess I can see how I might of appeared to be confrontational.

this week we have been working on *insert something here* and are waiting for testers to provide feedback on *insert something else here* before update release.


I'd lol if the next update they post is exactly that!

This weeks updates news: *insert something here*

Hahaha

Oh, one other thing while I remember, the reason the installer tries to install the Bing bar is because that's what the current directX installer does for everyone. You can thank Microsoft for that charming decision, no way around it on our side I'm afraid.

Nope! Even steam stuff does it (if it needs a DirectX install), it sucks!

Whaaaaaaaat!?!

What version of DirectX are you using to run the game? Because I thought I had the most recent versions (9.0a, 9.0b, 9.0c, 10, 11) installed... :/

Is there a way to "package" your own DirectX installer? Or would Microsoft have a meltdown?

Re: Has development been halted?

Usually when I do updates for Automation, when the option comes up to install Bing ... I choose not to install it... (main reason? ... I hate Bing [personal preference] ... ) , and as a result I will not use it for... anything...
I personally think Microsoft needs to have a "developers" version where they can choose if the installer for Bing is included or not... (just my thought on that part)...

Re: Has development been halted?

It never asks me to install Bing, it all just installs without any 'great offers', so I'm not sure what's different for me.

We all use windows, so the OS is not the problem. Perhaps he does already have IE.

Re: Has development been halted?

Well, IE was already installed on my system, but I don't have the Bing bar or anything bing related I don't think, but my laptop was pretty much made for Windows 8 so that might be it.

My computer had windows 8 installed from the beginning; never have I been asked to install bing. When I first ran Explorer, the standard search bar ran through Bing; I quickly changed it to Google.

Re: Has development been halted?

Topic is completely off-topic. But to answer your question, Bing comes with DirectX, as its a microsoft product and Microsoft tries to provide their products with every other product

Re: Has development been halted?

Well the topic was already answered and concludified, lol, so we been chatting about similar subjects.

That makes more sense. Windows 8 already has the Bing! bar installed from the factory. Windows 7 does not (thank god!).
