As an added bonus, it's free if you do it before level 10! Good time to fill any spare slots with interesting variations.

In the help screen for the log parser, the "settitle.txt" link is throwing a 404. (Noticed when I saved and tried to load and got html parsing errors for the custom 404 page.)

Just for fun, try doing the search-and-replace on the SpeedOnDemand30.bas file itself. Then you won't need to massage the output files. Nice find, thanks for this!

I wish there was a "Lock Trays the way I put them, dammit!" option. I use the mouse to trigger powers a lot (weird, I know) and accidentally hitting the tiny hidden arrows at the label end of the tray drives me crazy. Also hate acci-dragging a tray out of position, either can get my character killed.

Thanks, that's helpful!

I've tried running two toons at once, but I think I'm doing it wrongTM I cloned my c:\games\CoH folder to c:\games\CoH2, and created an new account, no problem, but the two fight over ownership of Tequila. Every time I launch either instance of Tequila I have to go into options, change the install path to the one I want, exit Tequila, and launch it again. Once I get both launched, things work pretty well just alt-tabbing with the sidekick on Follow, spamming heals or whatever. (And using the /maxinactivefps 1 command keeps the resource use down, which I appreciate.) But launching both is a pain, to the point where I seldom bother. Any advice from folks who do this every day? Also, Microsoft and I are mortal enemies, so I prefer to run under Linux, but let's not cloud the issue here. Just assume I'm running a stripped-down Windows 10.

I get the same about Mystic Flight/Translocate. I think it's a bug, though.

To the point, though, did recent changes make it so turning off XP isn't useful?

Yeah, I was hoping a Universal Travel enh would boost its range. No such luck.

There is a "Lock Powers in Tray" toggle at the bottom of the General options page. I wish there was a "Lock Trays the way I put them, dammit!" option. I use the mouse to trigger powers a lot (weird, I know) and accidentally hitting the tiny hidden arrows at the label end of the tray drives me crazy. Also hate acci-dragging a tray out of position, either can get my character killed.

Cool! I'll try to translate for RPM-based distros like Fedora once you're done. (I'm stuck working from home for a while, and one of my jobs is to practice shell scripting. I think this qualifies!)

Let us know if you have any luck getting CoH running on the Raspberry Pi. You might have to use qemm to emulate an x86 CPU, since rpi uses an ARM SOC. AFAIK, qemm is the most efficient way to emulate an x86 on ARM. Someone more capable than I might be able to take the source code and recompile the client for ARM. That would almost certainly let the Pi run CoH, it has done well with other games, at least on the 4GB Pi 4. Personally, I use PlayOnLinux to run CoH on Fedora 31, and it works quite well. But that's on an AMD Ryzen 5 3600, so YMMV.

Anyone else seeing Mapserver attacks much more frequently? I'm having trouble finishing missions. Also, I can confirm the PA zoning bug. 1 survivor each time.

Yay! Worked great, thanks! Sorry, didn't realize it was compiled, for some reason I expected text source and an interpreter. Is it irony to use one back-from-the-dead project on another? And again, many thanks! PS: I'm running CoH under Fedora 30/xfce, with Wine Staging 4.19. What's your setup?

Wine Staging 4.19 Good luck!

I'm sorry, but my arch-nemesis Verizon is attacking! I'll have to go somewhere with a wired connection. So I'm going to have to wait to install Lazarus. But when I can, from what I see, this is a Libre reimplementation of Pascal? Cool! So for everyone on Fedora 3x, the command is: sudo dnf install lazarus But once I do that, how do I launch your program? (All I see is an exe, which will launch in WINE. I'd don't want to create yet another winebottle, I'm starting to fill up my SSD with Windows crap!) With the Lazarus interpreter installed, I should be able to run it natively, no? I didn't get source from the link, just the Win binary zipfile. But many, many thanks for all your hard work!

Replying to myself (that's a sign of something, I think). The next update of WINE fixed whatever was broken, and I'm happily playing away without leaving my penguin comfort zone.

I finally made it work this time! Yay! Is there a badge? Keep up the good work!

Sorry! I guess I just missed it. Saw the re-roll-out announcement and went off to play. Thanks!

Didn't see them mention it at all, where did you learn about the new pricing?

OS? Version? Does it do the same running from the command line? If you try it from the command line, post your results as a text file, please.

Can anyone offer insight as to why Mid's Reborn would run V E R Y S L O W L Y under WINE on lInux? The same hardware actually runs the game slightly /faster/ under WINE. I'm not suggesting it's a priority for you, it's just so slow I can't really make use of it. MR is sufficiently useful to resort to booting into WIndows, abhorrent as that is to me, but if there's a fix on my end, I'll be glad to implement it. Does it maybe have a soft dependency that makes it resort to an emulation mode (the way some gfx programs fall back to CPU rendering when the GPU is not recognized)? Thanks again for all your hard work!

Many folks are math-phobic, and the sight of the sigma sends them running. Also, humans are story-loving critters, so adding a narrative to your guide might be able to overcome knee-jerk innumeracy. In any event, thanks for all your work!

Yes, I tried all that, even reinstalled and tried a different account. In my case, it was definitely a patch that broke directinput.

Delighted to hear it!
