  1. I just updated to the lastest MIDS to see if that was the issue. I tried opening the build, but no luck, i get the error "Unable to read data - Bad format. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007000B)"

     

    I am running MIDS on a mac through wine, so that might be the problem.

  2. Thanks! I will give it a go! Blaster file opens fine (as a test) - but the sentinel file errors out unfortunately.

    I was able to open with textedit and view the build - so that's good for me. Thanks again 🙂

  3. Hey all,

    I have a 2011 mac pro that I was only able to use safemode to play CoH. After reading through the various threads I did the following which fixed the issue for me. I can now play 32-bit beta or in the 32-bit link as well.

     

    1. I trashed the CoH folder in my applications folder. I also had another icon for CoH in that folder, which I trashed as well. I left the rum folder alone.

    2. I then started rum, selected 32-bit and tried to launch CoH. I had a big error message that said it couldn't locate the game files, so it started redownloading everything, including the Wine files.

    3. After everything downloaded, I pasted in the beta manifest to see if that would work - it did.

    4. I pasted in the safemode manifest to see if that still worked - it did.

    5. I finally tested the normal 32-bit mode link to see if that worked now - it did.

    6. Just tested 64-bit mode link and that now works as well.

     

    So trashing the CoH files and redownloading worked for me.

  4. This is my post from before this thread was started:

    GM Korvin asked me to post here if I am unable to use the beta version,, so here is my info:

     

    When I try to use the 32-bit beta launcher I see "Loading", then the CoH splash screen for a few seconds, then it exits out back to the launcher. It doesn't let me into the game. I can still play in safe mode though. To try and play the beta I changed the manifest to http://patch.savecoh.com/beta.xml with the results above.

  6. I've been playing on my old macbook pro (2011). When trying to log in today, safe mode is no longer available, which is what I have been using to play. Neither the 32 bit nor the 64 bit option work.

     

    64 bit says launcher likely won't work properly (and it just resets when you click it).

    32 bit tries to launch, then gives me an error box:

     

    Program Error

    The program cityofheroes.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

    This can be caused by a problem in the program or a deficiency in Wine. you may want to check the Application Database for tips about running this application.

    I'm not a computer guy so any help should be super straight forward, if possible. Thanks!
