I guess what i'm saying is, I wonder how difficult it would be to convince SOE to make a seperate executable for the UI... -OR- essentially make it such that each 'frame' would be its own executable, thereby letting you put anything anywhere you wanted.
I just really thought it would be cool for modders - you'd finally get some real, realestate to take advantage of... think of the possibilities with maps etc.
I can't think of anything bad, packet wise, that would have to be touched, you'd just need an instance prototype base that would be setup to be able to read data from EQ and input commands. Same thing that happens now except that instead of EQgame.exe calling them as individual xml files, they'd be executables with the particulars of each frame stacked on top of them.
call me crazy, but i've had a dream since 1985 (with an apple IIe) to be able to have a game setup like that.. commands/toolbars on one monitor and your immersive graphics on the other.
I definately appreciate all the feedback though
