Yep.

When someone disagrees with you, please don't resort to personal attacks as a first line of defense (or at all, but especially not as a first line of defense).

Please keep the personal attacks to a minimum and the topic to a maximum, thanks.

They're French, so it actually stands for On Vous Héberge (We host you).

It does, just evidently not the way you want it to. The reset has always been a thing - it's based off of whatever side the toon you just logged out of was, just like it was on live pre-Freedom. If you really want the Freedom menu and theme, go dig them out from the i24 piggs and stick them in the data folder, mimicking the folder structure exactly (I think loading screens are [install folder]/data/texture_library/loading_screens or something like that).

It takes mad skills to perma Haten. A pure legend! Is Perma Haten going to lead to people dupin rares and jerk hacking? (Is Perma Haten this boards first thing)? By the power vested in me by... well, me, mostly, I henceforth declare Perma Haten GONE TO THE AMERICANS! Please abuse it.

I don't know about the character select background, but you should be able to set your preferred login theme with -uiskin in launch parameters. -uiskin 1 is CoV, -uiskin 2 is GR. (0, for reference, is CoH. There's not one for Freedom; so if you want that you'll need to do some much more complex mucking about.)

Again, there's nothing to revert. The change was not targeted at Rage at all. Rather, it was a consequence of a larger rewrite of powers code to change how stacking worked to fix some other bugs, that also happened to fix this... shall we say, feature. There are no plans to un-rewrite powers code, to my knowledge.

7/3/19 EDIT: after two weeks, it returns!

Last night was an example of anomalous downtime. The Beta server will remain up for the foreseeable future, and if and when it goes down, we'll announce it a lot.

The forums are an illusion, and so is death.

It hasn't been a universal issue... for whatever reason, it's only affected some people. That being sad, we think the issue has resulted from running the turnstile server (the thing that actually handles LFG) cross-shard, instead of one per shard. You may ask, "y u do dis?", but apparently that was how it worked on Live. We're moving it back to per shard Soon™.

7/2/19 EDIT: EXTRA EDIT:

Hello, world. Herein I will document urgent known issues with the game. 7/1/19 - Admiral Sutter TF We are aware of an issue with the final mission where, on occasion after killing both Durays, the mission fails to complete. We are not certain of the cause. It has been suggested that this might be caused by one Duray getting too far from their combat area, so we would suggest not kiting either of him. If this fails, please let us know using the ticketing system (https://support.homecomingservers.com/). We will be happy to complete any stuck missions.

Does that make me the "final boss" of CoH? Groovy.

Well, I moved them to the bottom of the post - does that work for you?

Island Rum uses the exact same manifest as Tequila. There will be no interruption in service on that account.

I'm not totally certain about this, but judging by how the files in the Island Rum download haven't been updated since March of 2018, I'd guess that IR itself is static. IR uses a manifest, much like Tequila, to update CoH, and that's something we control, not Manga. It does not to my knowledge, which is admittedly limited, get updated every time the game needs updating, and the Mac experts I talked to agree with me in this judgment. This isn't going to help you out very much, Ringu, since you're going to be stuck with 10.15, but people who don't want to update to 10.15 should be able to continue playing as they have thus far.

I would note that Manga is not a member of the Homecoming Team in any capacity, to my knowledge, and is speaking solely for himself as the developer of Island Rum and the preeminent CoH Mac guru. If you have a problem with how he's handling the situation with 10.15 (and he is working on a solution, as you well know, given that you've posted twice in his thread), I would suggest taking it up with him. We have, to my knowledge, very little to do with it.
