TimeHi Masked Turk, can you take a look at the Template:SysReq please. I dislike how the GPU sections seems to take up more lines than it needs to. For example, http://i.imgur.com/8KdAj.png - the Video Card (GPU) only has a single line of text, but it's occupying x3. Can you take a look at it please?
Thanks, Andytizer
I believe this should now be fixed.

(Talk | Edits) •Amazing thanks :), looks much nicer now.
Can we simplify the SysReq template please?
Basically I would like the OSfamily_ to dictate the top row text (which can be only Windows, Mac or Linux), later I'd like to be able to link them to the relevant OS page.
What I don't like about the current implementation is the use of the suffixes _m _l.
I agree. When I saw how you chaps set out that template, I shivered a bit :P
I'll see what I can do.

(Talk | Edits) •Infact, Template:SysReq is utterly unnecessary... it just adds OSFamily... :/
You can already just use Template:SysReq_BaseTemplate and use the property_ tags without the os-specific suffixes.
{{SysReq_BaseTemplate
|OSfamily_ = Windows
|minOS_ = Windows XP SP3
|recOS_ = Windows Vista SP2/Windows 7
|minProc_ = Intel Core 2 Duo 1.8Ghz or AMD Athlon 64 X2 2.0Ghz Processor
|recProc_ = 1.8 GHz Quad Core Processor
|minRAM_ = 2 GB
|recRAM_ = 4 GB
|minHD_ = 8 GB free
|minGPU1_ = ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT
|minGPU2_ = nVidia GeForce 7900 GS video card
|minGPU3_ = Core i3 integrated graphics
|minVRAM_ = 256
|recGPU1_ = ATI 4800 or better video card
|recGPU2_ = nVidia 9800 or better video card
|recGPU3_ =
|recVRAM_ = 512
|minAudio_ = DirectX 9.0c-compatible sound card
|recAudio_ =
|minCont_ =
|recCont_ =
|minOther_ =
|recOther_ =
}}
I've taken the liberty of adding the OS link to the template :P

(Talk | Edits) •When I started the site I didn't know much about templates. SysReq was implemented by an enterprising individual who created it, and just stuck ever since.
This implementation looks much better, I'll look at it in more depth later.
Well, I didn't actually change anything. It's just using the BaseTemplate's variables and cutting out the middle-man template, so there's no real difference apart from the lack of 'm' or 'l' or w/e :)
