i hadnt used any decal since A3 and have just started with the newest release. my question is, why is it still in alpha? it seems to be quite stable and hasnt crashed my system yet. i could see where it might be able to get better speed, but would it be enough to matter? i knew it would take a few months for decal to get back after tod, just never thought it would take this long in alpha.

Plugin views (windows) are currently unacceptable performance hogs and are being overhauled. I don't know the specifics, but the new view system may require significant changes to plugins. I doubt Decal will be out of alpha before the new view system is mostly done.

although i may be wrong, it seems to me that the core components of decal are pretty good. What's left is to overhaul the video system like Digero said. To get better performance.

cool, i've noticed a performance hit, but didnt think it was much worse than the old decal.
