  1. Oh man, the irony, chum. This could just well be a preparatory move by Homecoming. Why take unnecessary risks with getting a lawsuit thrown at the game if NCSoft is thinking about stamping their seal of approval on it? NCSoft wouldn't want to be on the hook for it as a named party if a copyright suit went to court. It might be jumping to conclusions for some, but it's based in logic. Sorry for all the people that made Batman and Spider-Man homages actually named Batman or Spider-Man and made them look exactly like those characters (or so close to infer that it's more a copyright violation than parody or homage).
  2. Hi buddy, I'm not projecting, but like Homecoming, I don't need to be 100% transparent with my motives 😄
  3. You know, if you don't like what's going on with Homecoming, there are other servers.
  4. Any way you spell it, I'm hoping the Homecoming team can open the Halloween event and soon 🙂
  5. Thanks, I think you've already made that pretty clear.
  6. .... Ah, yes. This is what I remember the most about the old CoH Forums. The inane squabbling.
  7. This, please.
  8. Asymmetric costumes (left/ right arm/ leg options) integrated by other SCORE teams Powersets developed by other SCORE teams (provided the quality is high) Story line progression/ content (dependent on the volunteer team) More base options to making out-of-bounds bases easier to build (more building parts) Finish Khalisti Wharf❤️ I'm very happy the game is back at all, but these are my pie-in-the-sky wish list items at present.
  9. I think this is my stance for now. Although we could make a Homecoming Wiki that refers to PW for everything except stuff changed in homecoming/ I26/ etc., I think it would be a waste of time. If Homeocoming did become the new "official" City of Heroes, there would be a lot of copy & pasting and reformatting in order to ensure that PW formatting was followed, powerset propagated correctly, etc. And I have enough of that at my work that actually pays me to do things like that.
  10. It's possible to simply transpose info, but some pages (ex.: base items, powersets, ATs, etc.) would need to be rewritten to match what Homeocming does. In addition, adding templates or boiler plates on PW for SCORE-related content is also something they'll not entertain. It's understandable that PW doesn't want a lot of SCORE related edits, but we currently don't have an easy way of documenting them by wiki, and although Widower says we'll most likely have something in less than a year, the conversation on the other thread leaves things less certain and more nebulous, leaving the state of any wiki in limbo.
  11. More walls would be nice, but the orange tanks and other new Praetorian items are most welcome.
  12. Well, it seems like @The Philotic Knight wanted to start a Homecoming Wiki, but has heard nothing but crickets ever since asking to duplicate it to his own site: So even if we wanted to make a Homecoming Wiki, it seems like support from ParagonWiki is sparse, and yet they won't let us update thier wiki. IN essence, we'd have to start from scratch without their assistance, or manually copy all the pages, categories, templates, etc.
  13. My point was less the wiki and more of ParagonWiki being the official wiki (within the next 10 months as predicted by Widower), pending the Homecoming servers being the "official" servers.
  14. Yeah, this typically happens because the file name is wrong. The system will always tell you that the music has been changed, but if the file name is wrong, it will either go with no music or the previously working track. You should also hear the new loo p kick in within 10 - 30 seconds, so you shouldn't need to leave and re-enter the base to verify. I would message the OP to see if there's a typo in the OP for that loop.
  15. Carefully 😄 Or just hit F5 while you're manipulating it to change the attach type to surface or ceiling 😉
  16. What about "Med Wall Partition"? I recently found this while renovating my interior base.
  17. For those of us who still prefer the interior base setup for ease of use, I would love the ability for different ambient sounds per room. Right now it's the same ambient loop for the whole base. This could be attached to the room itself, like room lighting is.
  18. Aside: that's never been the case Even on Live I had Arcane teleporters wtih tech power sources, because I liked how they looked more. Power is power, control is control (not that we need the latter anymore). The beacons may need to match, although I'm not even sure on that. Back to the OP, I'd also ensure you're not using inactive versions, which only exist for aesthetic purposes.
  19. I will only say that: I'm hoping it doesn't take 10 months, but again won't hold my breath. I don't know if I know you, but somehow I trust your good-natured demeanor. Don't let us down, Slim Shade-y.
  20. I'll hope you don't forgive me for hanging my hat on TonyV's words. Just because I'm cautiously optimistic doesn't mean I'm confident anything will happen. Many of us were around in 2012 and 2015 when people talked about working with NCSoft. I do find it interesting that TonyV and the Titan team have hung their star on the Homecoming effort without the benefit of us being able to better utilize their resources. In the meantime, any efforts to log anything on ParagonWiki, and now seemingly to start a wiki that can be alternately used, are also in limbo. I suppose the question I have is: will we be able to improve ParagonWiki within the next 10 years?
  21. I searched for this topic on the forums and couldn't find any matches, so if this has been previously discussed, I apologize. The Titan Network is dead set against adding any Homecoming content to the Paragon Wiki. https://www.cohtitan.com/forum/index.php?topic=13415.0 Lamentably, if we want to add info about Sentinels, Kallisti Wharf , or other post Issue 24 changes, we will need to start our own wiki, since it looks like ParagonWiki will be forever stuck in a stagnant state "City of Heroes sunset" state. I'm not sure if there's any effort from the Homecoming team on this front, but I'd be interested as an editor as time allows. If this happens, we can copy as much content from ParagonWiki as we want: I wouldn't recommend a lot of transcluding form ParagonWiki, because for things like powersets, ATs, inherent powers, changes to contacts or missions, altering badge locations, etc. we wouldn't be able to transclude that information very easily, nor edit ParagonWiki's content, and it would be more effective just to create a whole new document on the new wiki. I'm interested in if this would be possible by the Homecoming group, if the player base would have to go this on our own, how many people would be interested in editing or a Homecoming wiki, etc.
  22. Makes sense. I think that Leo enabled this to easily pop between bases and probably forgot to patch it up. I'll be sad to see it gone, but restricting it to GMs would fix this PvP issue nicely. Plus, it will make other teleporter powers (Ouro, base TP, ATT, Mission TP, etc.) more relevant again. Edit: I see that GMs have confirmed this after catching up on more of the thread, so 👍
