  1. My instinct was to point you to this (and it may still be useful), but I'll take a look at my install real quick.

     

    There's a BIN folder in the root of the installation folder. For me, that's located in C:\Games\CoX\Homecoming. If you're not sure where you've installed it, then right click your icon for the game and look at the path.

    Still is. I've not seen any creator page that offers the versatility that we have. That's 2 decades after it was launched

     

    I guess that depends on what "aspects" of a character you're wanting to have, but yeah, compared to the limited PG-13 games I've seen, that's about right.

    Memorial characters are limited to people who have made a massive impact on the game and the community.  The last one was Chris who everyone knew as Robotech Master who wrote dozens of guides that players still use today, and was a GM almost from day one until he died. He worked tirelessly for the players, often giving up time he would have spent doing other things and cancelling plans just to make sure a player was OK. That's the bar someone needs to reach to be given a memorial character in game. If you want to see his avatar it's in the Midnighter club browsing the shelves.

     

    Any player who dies is mourned by the community and we are always happy to have vigils in somewhere like Ouroboros where it's out of the way but people can see and join if they wish. Many of the GM's have joined in holding a torch either on their player accounts or as GM's as a sign of respect, and have stepped in on the rare occasions someone has thought it funny to try to disrupt one.  Sadly that's as much as we can do in their memory.

     

    Yeah, I imagine it'd be rather tricky to do it for Every player and I imagine that this is something that's been done since the first player fell (whenever that may have been) on live.

  4. I mean, back when Trial accounts were a thing, I tested my current rigs (old) specs by loading up like 8 accounts on Win7. Not bad for a stress test with only 16 Gb of RAM at the time and a GTX 970. I've since doubled the RAM (maxed) and nabbed a clean 3060 Ti (the last EVGA GPU I'll ever be able to have), so I imagine I could run a few more if I wanted to. 😛

     

    And the whole point of that was to say that I'd Also created like 7 temp email accounts back then (but I obviously kept track of it all). >.<

    Not taking a stance on this, just giving likely explanation. The word queer has often been used less to describe someone and more to insult someone until fairly recently. Probably why it is bleeped out. Though I am rather surprised it is bleeped out. It isn't itself any form of profanity that I am aware of.

     

    This as you have to remember that the game was originally running when things like "that's so gay" were a thing. Granted, I'd imagine that they'd have full access to this subsystem, so maybe it depends on how they're wanting to approach it and the abuse it may face.
