Quote - So how could an installer be easier? double click and it opens, I agree to the EULA, next screen I click no uninstaller, no meta date, installing in poser format, next page I browsr to my runtime. Once that is done the next installer ask me too agree, I click yes, do I want to install with the previous settings I click yes, and it installs. That is about as simple as it would get, and I would much prefer over having it done for me. DAZ just seems to have forgotten the KISS princaple.
Agreed in KISS. DAZ don't KISS enough.
On the installer topic - I don't see it as needing that many pages at all, for a number of reasons. One is that everything except the EULA can fit on one "page" - click, click, ignore, Finish kind of thing. The other is... if they're looking at making it easier, we don't REALLY need to read and agree to the EULA after we've already bought something, do we? It's a bit "after the horse has bolted". Anything you have to agree to should come up front, before they take your money. Cut the EULA out of the installers and there's even more effort saved - an installer could be a single page that usually remembers the previous settings :D
I could probably even draw something up, if I had to.
Meanwhile - I guess if you were banned despite your angelic nature, then I seriously wonder why they put up with some people - including, at times, myself. They must just irrationally like us :D
