I've noticed a few problems with the way display option changes are working at the moment... I don't know if they're worth holding up a release, but here is my understanding of the situation:
1) we used to reload everything whenever the user pressed OK on the graphics option and advanced graphics options menus
2) the second reload corrupted GFX for people on OSX/Windows
3) we decided that, for this release, we could just throw up a "changes will take effect on next restart" screen whenever the user presses OK on the graphics option menu, and take no other action (don't reload) when OK is pressed on either menu
Here's what actually happens for me:
1) graphics options don't take effect until the next restart, EXCEPT the screen size option, which takes effect immediately after pressing OK (and there is no reload, just a screen size change, which probably wipes out the display for OSX/Windows people)
2) there is no "changes will take effect on next restart" screen
Is there any reason that we're doing it the way we are instead of how (I thought) we agreed to make it work? Did we just not get around to it?
Just want to make sure I understand what's up before I jump in and start changing code around....
