[Memory Leak While AE Farming]

Brave Browser FTW!

[Instance forming issues]

The instance version of the MSR is like a Task Force. Once you begin you can’t add people to the RAID.

[Snaptooth keeps chickening out]

I remember this happening on live. It’s an old bug. Maybe someone can look up the old forums to see if anyone had an answer to why?

I don't remember it being like that when I first originally went there (Croatoa) on Homecoming (2022 or something when I first joined), since I like to get all the badges there.  Unless I was just completely oblivious to it on my first few characters when I was getting badges.

 

We'll see what happens to it :V

Nope. Was like that on live. Was like that on the Secret Server. It's like that on Homecoming. It wasn't originally like that. It happened after a update back on live and was low priority to fix. Prolly still is.

In Croatoa, the little river and lake on the right side of the map are lifted up on the edges, which can be seen with that weird gray outline on the edges, /loc -2187.4 -31.7 1059.6

That's been like that since live. It's been bugged a few times since CoH came back but nothing has ever been done. 

[Prestige for Super Groups Again]

On 1/30/2024 at 3:58 AM, Earth Dragon said:

I understand the "quick Fix" that was done for players to just have their own base with a depleted player base and to turn all requirements off to allow access to everything, but it would be great to have Prestige gain and Super Group badges back again.

 

(and please forgive any incohesive formatting......it's late but I want to get this posted)

 

This doesn't have to be the old system.  It doesn't need to be attached to the base components.  But turning SG mode on and gaining Prestige (not necessarily taking away from Infamy, but the 50% metric would still be acceptable) while allowing you to contribute to Group badges again would be great, give groups goals, and bring about a consolidation of the player base, allowing us to organize better!!  And I mean put in plenty of badges.  Ideas for badges could include:

 

X Amount of TF/SFs completed

X Amount of Merits collected

X Amount of Prestige collected

X Amount of items sold on the Market

X Amount of items bought on the Market

X Amount of Enemies Defeated

- X Amount of Minions/Lts/Bosses Defeated

- X Amount of Particular Group Defeated

- X Amount of Heroes/ArchVillains Defeated

X Amount of Y Damage Dealt

X Amount of Y Damage Taken

X Amount of Health Healed

X Amount of Levels gained

X Amount of Pets lost

X Amount of Radio/Newspaper Missions completed

 

Some of these badges could give you new stuff for the base that isn't vital, but looks cool, like guards that patrol the place.  Take out 100k Longbow, and now you can have Arachnos guards in the base.  Take out 100k Arachnos, now you can have Longbow patrolling your base etc.  Smaller groups in the game have much smaller requirements (Blighted, for example, would be like 500, while Arachnos, as I noted, could have a 1k, 10k, and even 100k as a reasonable long term goal).

 

To be clear: I'm not asking for everyone to lose their bases for solo play and make them pay for everything again and what not if they want to keep them.  I'm just asking that groups that wish to consolidate get goals and perks they can work for once again which can help build teams to do events, in particular on redside.  And Prestige was just a cool metric as to how much mileage your group had and how much "damage" you had dealt to the gangs and organizations of Paragon City and the Rogue Isles.

 

Oh hell no.

[Fog of War Randomly Fills Back In]

The game has worked that way since live. The best guess I can come up with is that the game remembers specific location points you have crossed. Example: you are traveling point A to C and just hit the corner of point B along the way, when you log out it won’t remember you crossed the corner of B.

Not surprised due to the HUGE amount of traffic on all servers in particular Excelsior.  Give it a few days or even try playing at lower than peak load times. 
 

I rarely have issues and was having problems with connecting all last weekend too.

[Title Screens & Theme Songs, How To...]

You can change them to a default of your choosing. Look under mods on the forums here and you will find it.

 

@Oubliette_Red is correct however in answering your question.

[Update Last Spawn Code To Affect All Missions/Maps]

@Greycatis correct. It doesn’t always “kick in.” For some reason my memory seems to recall that the Devs only wanted it to show the last baddie on the map in specific missions.

If you enter Pools toward the back in large Chamber you go to the bottom instead of floating, even if you leave and re-enter pool. You can then swim under the path from pool to pool, this may be a feature and not a bug, but have never seen this before.

 

At one point the Devs on live toyed with water you could swim in. This is one of artifacts left over from that time.

OK yeah I don't have a slot opened. I wish they would have said something. Thank you.

I know you already answered this question but just an fyi. When you do slot it eventually, if you create more then one type of incarnate power, there is a cool down period between unslotting and slotting again.

Impervious Skin Sets are showing up with the Gladiator Armor artwork on it. It should be the Dragon Scale artwork for Impervious Skin. 

[Atlas Map Overlay]

10 hours ago, Razor Cure said:

I just downloaded the updated Maps..and it is still broken (only for AP). I got them via the CityModder program and the adding the new Vidiotmaps from there. Then I removed the

old versions as per your Vidiot Map thread

shown below..and that removed the overlay in every zone? So now I am even more confused, Haha

 

Old versions of vidiotmaps were installed to the following folders:

 

<CoH Root Folder>\data\texture_library\MAPS
<CoH Root Folder>\data\texture_library\P_MAPS
<CoH Root Folder>\data\texture_library\V_MAPS

I removed P_Maps and V_Maps folders first. Then DLd the city mod installer and then DLd Vidiotmaps through the city mod installer. Once the old maps are removed and the new map’s installed it should work.

[Ghost Slaying Axe - doesn't slay ghosts]

I guess not all Ghosts in the game are equal. It's kinda like not all Vampires in the game are equal either. 

[Atlas Map Overlay]

That happened to me also. I Deleted the old Map Overlays and DLd the City Mod Installer and uploaded the new Videotmaps. All was fixed. At some point they went to a new Map Overlay. The stopped using the Maps, V_Maps and P_Maps. Do it the new way and you wont have any problems.

[Glue Arrow does not prevent enemies from jumping and certain enemies can fly over it]

Those are awful Purple enemies you are fighting. They are probably out of the Resistance Levels for your Glue Arrow.

Patton thought he was one of Alexander’s soldiers through reincarnation. If this is true, Patton literally trained under Alexander. 

[Leveling Robot MM question while ToTing]

So while ToTing tonight I pulled out my Robot MM. (Lvl 43 Robot/FF Leadership/Speed/TP/Charge Mastery)

 

I noticed every time I leveled All my Bots would take a HUGE hit. From time to time they would all even be wiped out. It happens so quickly but my gut instinct says that just before I get the INS Bonus for leveling all my Defenses would drop for a moment.

 

Anyone else notice this oddity?

One of the main problems is that those local files are ... local. Not a big deal to some, but I (for instance) have two desktops - one in sorta-retirement I don't really game on these days much - and two laptops, and those local files aren't necessarily in sync.

You know you can combine those files if it’s desired?

[Nudity in Game Removal Mod?]

This has been resolved. A GM should prolly lock the post before it goes down hill.
