  1. Son of a gun! Winlator 10 beta kept throwing OpenGL errors, but the latest stable version actually runs the game! At 1024x768, it seems to run fine on my Pixel 7a. It really, really, needs a mouse and keyboard, though! I have a little bluetooth one with a touchpad I'm going to try once I get batteries for it. (And can remember how to make it enter pairing mode!) Thanks very much, Captain Fabulous! You're my hero! NB: I had to run the game in 32-bit mode, and installed both Mono and Gecko with the included installers. (And of course had to sideload Winlator. Because Google.) Thanks again!
  2. No. I've tried with LimboX86. I'll have to check out Winlator, thanks!
  3. Of course it was Gunner's guide! Thanks, Shenanigunner!
  4. Don't give up! No one is saying that! But the title of this thread is enough to make folks uneasy. (Here goes Grandpa with a history lesson!) Back in 2004 a bunch of Marvel's lawyers got accounts on CoH, logged on, and proceeded to make the most infringing characters they could. Marvel then sued NCSoft, submitting screenshots of those characters as evidence that CoH was a big ol' grab at Marvel's IP. You can look up the details, but it really was a most sordid affair, and one that could well have consigned our City to the "ashcan" of comics history. Marvel was desperate in those days, and it showed. The judge figured it out, and dismissed the case, but everyone who remembers it is just a bit more skittish than they might be otherwise.
  5. Because seasons are really weird. Think about it: Winter officially starts on 21 December, the solstice. So, technically, Winter is the season where the days get longer.
  6. Nice guide, thanks! Proton-tricks might help unlock some more potential. Now if someone would just come up with an Android recipe!
  7. I'm a big fan of the SB, it would be great for it to get some love. But I always assumed the Fixer was the person narrating the thing, and what would the Maker do exactly? I guess you could say, "Mission accomplished! The Maker has a gift for you..."
  8. You are quite right, 15% vs 10% bonus. I guess I'm a sucker for the +20% Regen Numina two-fer!
  9. I can't find it, but I'm sure someone had a guide to having KEY-press doing one thing, and KEY-release doing a different one. Or have the video games finally rotted my brain like Mom used to say?
  10. It's worth mentioning, I hope, that +10% Max Endurance and +20% Max HP are just waiting there for the taking. Some of the new folks may not know about:
  11. Wait, there's another use for Wormhole?
  12. May I humbly suggest, as a skating-by-on-the-parody-clause character myself, that the OP (and the game) would be better served by recasting the original ask? Say: I'd like suggestions on making these guys in an AE arc: Neodymium - a magnet-themed leader-type Tree-frog - a hopping mad minion The Slob - a big sloppy guy who soaks damage et cetera. That way, the HC guys have no trouble, the players may or may not be in on the jest, and the OP gets (hopefully) helpful advice.
  13. Good advice here -- and your characters already have Personal Vault accounts. You can go into the Vault Room in Pocket D and click on any drawer or you can just click the "Salvage" item in the list above your power tray. You will be well served by building/joining a Supergroup with a base, as base storage will let you store much more stuff, as well as let you have handy teleporters to most zones. You can also add various vendors, trainers, and gadgets like a resurrection circle (gives you an alternative to the hospital when defeated). Another useful one is a base buff station, which can let you convert white and yellow salvage drops into temporary buff powers, to help you not be defeated next time! Oh, and Welcome Home!
  14. Ya beat me to it! Doesn't sound near as butch to modern ears, does it?
  15. Wasn't there some work done on 64-bit-proofing the game client? Or was that just the launcher?
  16. And Welcome Home!
  17. True! Seriously, though, try an Aeropress. They're less than $30 and make the best coffee you've ever tasted.
  18. Starbuck's isn't worth it even for free. They burn their beans! I'd sooner have 7-11 coffee than Starbuck's! (But, seriously, my own aeropress makes the best coffee!)
  19. Spoiler much? There's also the accomplishment of defeating a stupid number of signature heroes in a really, really tough fight. (Yeah, I know. That and five dollars gets me a cup of coffee.)
  20. I can confidently say, the NEM version is very hard.
  21. I have high hopes for the April Fool's event. I'll kick in an extra ten bucks if we see the return of FREEM! (For the unitiated, FREEM! was an April Fool's event that did NOT include piles of dead babies.)
  22. I'll see your 100 and raise to 125%!
  23. They use the same cooldown timer, true, but you can choose which one to activate for a given rez. I can imagine a case for having the choice available.
  24. Kudos and bless you on the line editing, but the wiki is a wiki for a reason. Step up, hero!
