  1. Man dies on the job, saving another and in the afterlife is guided by 3 guardians through 7 trials to determine if he is worthy or reincarnation.
  2. I couldn't understand all the rave this garnered, but I did watch is a very long time ago and will have to give it another watch. 🙂
  3. Yes... yes there is. If you have never added mods or modified a sfx file for your game then there a couple of steps you will need to take first: In your game folder create the following folder-subfolders: Drive:\CoH\data\sound\ogg\powers Click on the Silence/Modify sounds link in my sig and at the bottom of the first post download the Silence-Boop_test zip file and extract the silence.ogg file.* Place the silence.ogg file in the powers folder. Rename file to: molten_loop.ogg *You you have the software, you can create your own 1 second loop of silence. That should silence Molten Embrace's looped sound. It will also silence any other power/entity that uses this sfx as well.
  4. Not exactly true, animations can have multiple triggers attached to it, similar to draw/activate, attack, hit, etc. The power would need to be built with triggers that identify which "ammo" is in use at the time and call to the appropriate sfx, similar to how Dual Pistol's Suppressive Fire will apply different hit sfx depending on which ammo is active.. The attack itself does not sound different, but when the target is hit there will be a change in the hit sfx. Depending on one's audio setting or perhaps even closeness to the target, folks may not even hear it, granted with all of the shooting going on folks may not notice it regardless.
  5. My first go-to is formerly knows as The Philotic Knight's Rosetta Stone spreadsheet though it's several years old now it still works for 95% of the sfx in the game, if that fails I go to the archive data dump from OuroDev which has decompiled versions of CoH, lastly I go pigg diving which can be quite tedious and sometimes not fruitful at all. Since there are so many sfx associated with the game (PK's spreadsheet is almost 20k rows long*), I only put the ones requested in my thread. *There are considerable duplicate entries for sfxs because so many things in the game can point to one file. For instance, Howling Twilight has 5 components, but 4 of them point to the same 2 sfx files so only 3 of the 5 are unique and would need to be modified, since the game points to the specific file. Demon Summoning is the worst offender with 50+ sfx files associated with it, the closes 2nd contender is Portal Corp's portals with I think 8 sfx. Noise-wise those two are the biggest offenders which is why I tried to lest ever sfx associated with them. Most everything else may have only 1 or 2 sfx that the majority take issue with. Originally I just recreated the thread from the archived Legacy forums (and not the neat, easily searched version @Michiyo created 🙂 ) and then scoured the thread to build the more easily perused tables on my first page. It's a labour of love. 🙂
  6. There appears to be 3 different parts to Howling Twilight's sfx: SOUND\OGG\POWERS\SOOT2_LOOP SOUND\OGG\POWERS\MIASMA_LOOP SOUND\OGG\POWERS\MIASMABURST
  7. Visual guides for things are always handy. Thanks!
  8. If anyone really want to experience Hard-Mode PvP, take you newly-minted, level 1 character into Recluse's Victory. You'll get level-bumped to 50 still have your level 1 attacks, minus some temp powers 😈
  9. Back on Legacy, I had made a Praetorian arc (mostly it was for my expat and our RP group) rescuing citizens from New Tokyo. If I recall correctly, I had used the Siren's Call map or another one that is very similar to it, but made sure to make it non-escort. I'd pull it out of moth balls and submit it, but it's on my desktop with is still in a box from moving. Now that my expat is 41 I'll have to check this out.
  10. My Poison Corr want to be able to hock loogies for every single one of their powers. My own personal ask is for a mystical animation for police radio/newspapers and the Reveal power. something like the CoT scroll reading animation, Arcane Bolt, Spirit Ward or the Demon Summoning animation.
  11. I think we need to focus on sustainable logging and be sure that we replant for future growth.
  12. I'll wait whilst one of you volunteers your time and builds a new app.
  13. Clear Mind - Frees an ally from any Disorient, Hold, Sleep, Fear, Confuse, and Immobilize effects and leaves them resistant to such effects for a good while. Also, grants target clearer Perception to see hidden foes. Every singly one of those things has to do with the mind. Hold and Immobilize? Anyone who has experienced night terrors would likely agree. How does Perceptions fit in? Ghosts, shadowy figures, manifestations, etc can be argues to have less to do with vision and more to do with the mind's ability to perceive things that we cannot make sense of. And when it really comes down to it, every nerve in our body has one common connection, the brain. Anything that has an impact on the brain can affect the body. The only reason to call the powerset 'Healing Aura' would be if the player chose to forego the non-healing powers or just used the healing powers in the set to 'rock the aura' in which case they should automatically be renamed to Healbot-#####.

  14. Also, since this is for the test server, would probably better to have posted it in the Open Beta section. 🙂 https://forums.homecomingservers.com/forum/57-open-beta-testing/
  15. I rarely... well, never get pets from the vendor so hadn't even thought of this. Good idea!. 🙂
  16. Starring Bill Paxton, Powers Boothe and Matthew McConaughey, and directed by Bill Paxton! Awesome lineup right there.
  17. Posted him in Punny Names, figured I'd drop him off here as well. My War Mace/DA Scrapper: Midnighter's Club
  18. I picked up this for my War Mace/DA Scrapper: Midnighter's Club
  19. This assumes that people will read it when it's front and center, the majority wont. There's a link to the CoC in your 2nd screenshot, it would be interesting to know what percentage of players have actually clicked on it, I'll bet on it being in the single digit range. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it think. For me, I report, provide screenshots, global and local names then move on.
  20. Not sure if they posted in correct thread or not, too pancaking small to read. And I have my webview set to default at 120% because I'm an old fart.. <.<
  21. What @Greycat said. Fun is relative, my most fun to play isn't my most powerful or one I play the most often but I do cackle with glee when my teammates go on about how Mender Ramiel has to drain the pool again after my character has gone for a swim.
  22. Also, the Legacy devs swapped forum platforms around 2009 and it seems that there is a lot from the previous iteration that didn't make it through the swap.
