    This is a hypothesis so it may not work.

     

    1. Mail yourself 1mil Inf; retrieve it when you log in on your character.*
    2. Go to the to the Transact for Victory (T4V) vendor located at the very start of the Tutorial area. They are standing about 10ft from the Officer's 10 o'clock. 
    3. Under her tabs, go to Prestige Powers > Travel > Teleport and buy the Base Teleport power (should be 1mil exactly)
    4. Use the power to escape the area and get to a Teleport Hub base.**
    5. Because you're Praetorian the Icon NPCs there may not talk to you. But Trina in Pocket D will. Go there.
    6. While in Pocket D, find the portal to Imperial City or otherwise find your way back to Praetoria proper.

    *If you are having trouble finding Inf for this part, some players offer free inf for newer players, such as @Yomo Kimyata. Check their bio for more info.

    **If you don't know what this is, reply with what server you're on and someone can provide a base code you can use.


    Alright, thanks! Yeah, 1m INF is nothing for me, and I know my way around the game itself, but didn't know there was a T4V vendor inside the tutorial. 🙂

    So thanks for that.   Hopefully it gets fixed someday.

  2. I keep getting a game freeze and Windows "City of Heroes has stopped responding" crashing error when I blast down the door after talking to the clockwork in the Praetorian Tutorial Mission.  I did send the Clockwork above, I could maybe try not doing that, but... not sure.  The actual crash seems to happen when Wrencher speaks.

    Anyone know how to fix this without having to delete and remake the character (didn't save her costume yet. :() and skip the tutorial?

  3. I have a character based on the stripper from the movie B***h Slap.  Her name is changed of course, but her costumes are similar to the outfits the stripper wears in the movie lol (as for them being copyrighted, I don't really see how a shiny gold dress that has existed in the game for years is 'copyrighted' is it?)

    Let's see then my character Queen of Spades I actually created like 36 years ago in the old TSR Marvel Super Heroes Advanced game.  I first made her back on the Virtue server and I have a few screenshots of her hanging out in Gemini Park with Ghost Widow (one of the devs logged in as and RPing Ghost Widow) and Ascendant (a very famous player who I'm sure you all know who he is, he is missed) on the final days of the live servers.

  4. okay not sure what I'm doing wrong, but this doesn't seem to be working for me...

     

    C:\Users\Public\Games\Paragon Chat\Homecoming is as far as I know where the relevant City of Heroes folder would be, yes?

     

    Whatever folder your client is installed to and where the homecoming.exe is located should be where you would need to place my mod. If the above location you provided is the correct location, then you would simply have to copy my files into the data folder there. If there is no data folder then you can create one and place my files there. If you've ever saved costumes you'll know you're in the right place if you see a costumes folder with all your saved costumes inside.

     

    Oh the same folder the costumes folder is in? Okay that helps, yeah. Thanks! 

     

    EDIT: I'm still not seeing it, music in Pocket D is normal.

     

    EDIT 2: Got it! I was leaving them in Data/Jem Mods and it apparently won't go beyond to folders it doesn't recognize haha.

  5. Tempest actually talked about this.  Actual customization is unlikely, but they do want to give us more options.  Like the way he explained it...

     

    Say you have a "Soldiers" set.  This would include your Mercenaries, Longbow, Arachnos, etc.  The customization you pick would flavor it a bit.

    Or Civilians would include Thugs and others like that.

     

    Now again, this was more Tempest brainstorming with players in Kallisti Wharf, however as he said, this kid of "more options" is way more likely that the full customization we wish we could have, but probably isn't feasible.

  6. I actually remember these being released and having them before the servers went down. I am not sure as to why they are not available but it would be nice to see a way to pick these up. I got a few people I know that would love to have them. Hopefully they get added at some point.

     

    You sure you aren't thinking of Sorcery? As I remember, Sorcery was the only one finished and it was released right before the sunset annoucement.

  7. I mostly have seen it as the Battalion haven't arrived yet.  Maybe they will if the Homecoming team goes that route, maybe they won't.  For the most part when I remake chararacters, they are the same, however one I did change from being an Empath/Psi Defender to a Peacebringer, however even that is something that I say happened recently. She's RP wise still an Empath/Psi, but she merged with a Kheldian and so now her Empath powers just 'color' her Peacebringer energy (most of her costumes I use a green color for her powers)

  8. As a sort of joke sort of serious, I made a stripper in a gold dress named Trixie as a Ninja Blade/Ninjitsu stalker for the hilarity. Yes, she's a character from a movie, but hey it's all in fun and I make no attempts to hide that she's based on the movie character. :) I have as close as one can get to all of the different outfits she wears in the movie and whenever I change costumes, I do the ninja leap change emote based on the scene in the movie where she leaps into the air does backflips across the room and lands on a man's lap ("I call this move 'Shock and Awe!'") The name of the movie is <female dog> SLAP.

  9. We'd be good not lashing out or being defensive at anyone for questioning or being skeptical unless they're very clearly trying to provoke, cuz the answer is no one really knows for sure, and the info we do know is scattered across forums, discords, and reddits. I'm sure many of the mods are in the dark on a lot of things as well, that would be another thing to know from the team.

     

    Yea, I actually edited my post because of that first comment wondering if I was just trying to stir up drama, as I had originally reiterated what was said to me by someone else... so based on what he said, pretty sure he was very clearly trying to provoke me as he was accusing me of having said things I never said, much less before I even knew these servers existed.  If you'd like to know exactly what prompted this question, throw me a PM and I'll tell you privately.

  10. They are not the same thing.

     

    I think the only person from SCORE working with Homecoming is Leandro.

     

    Ah, okay.  But still, these forums were score.savecoh.com until recently, now that site redirects here... ?  Also when I first started playing on the 29th, Tequila said SCORE now it says Homecoming.

  11. You have to do the tutorial to work undercover. If you don't run the tutorial and talk to Calvin Scott/Marchand about the possibility of going undercover, they won't respond when you call them up at the appropriate time.

     

    Ah, really? I've always just done the tutorial as I think it's fun to RP and make the decision of which side to join in game, so I never imagined it would bug out if I did skip the tutorial.  Good to know for the future.

  12. My avatar on these forums is Foxy Raccoon, she's a rogue, mostly as she's a very sneaky thief (She's inspired by a song called Tough Titty Cupcakes by Tricky Pixie "From my sneaky bandit face to my hot bushy tail I'm tough mean and crafty Sharp of tooth and nail Don't mess with me Keep yer kitties outta sight Cuz I'm lurkin' by day And I rule the night") and so sneaking into Paragon City is just what she'd do.

  13. So, the SCORE team is who runs Homecoming, yes? I recently got reamed on a Facebook page that I just recently joined for saying that the Homecoming team made changes that SCORE actually made, and also was told other things that I'd supposedly said about a month ago that not only did I not say, but I've not even been around that long (only since the 29th here, and less than a week in that Facebook group)

     

    EDIT reason: To remove possible 'drama' and focus on the question itself.

     

     

  14. Champions Online imitated City of Heroes. That's the difference. One broke the mold. The other is a knockoff.

     

    Champions was a superhero rpg long before COH was a gleam in its creators eye.

     

    And it would have been a lot more complicated but a lot more satisfying if they translated Champions pnp to a computer game.*sighs* the more you rea about the lore, the more you see how they butchered such an interesting world with that MMO

     

    You hit the nail on the head why I don't like Champions Online.  It's not Champions, it's a lackluster game with a haphazard Champions paintjob.

  15. Right click on your Tequila icon and Properties > Target should lead you to where Tequila is sitting. 

     

    I have had a minor issue importing costumes that contain boughten/unlocked elements.  All the costume parts I am aware of are available in the editor, but can't be imported from costume files, and have to be found again and manually reselected.

     

    That happened sometimes even back in the day.  A name changed or they moved something, it throws errors to your costumes.  Luckily most of mine have been mostly working, just a few fixes, if any.  Funny thing is,  it doesn't error existing costumes you have saved in actual slots.  Like there was for awhile a bug where you could get a totally invisible chest.  It was quickly fixed, but anyone that caught it was able to keep the costume, as long as you didn't make ANY changes whatsoever to that slot.  Any changes would invalidate the slot and force you to pick an actual chest.

  16. Gah, I was really hoping Excelsior would be the unofficial PvP server. Had my names reserved and everything.  :(

     

    Agreed, the name would kinda be cool, but hopefully you can still get your names! I was still able to get all mine, including the name I always wanted but never had on Virtue, Queen of Spades! I actually created the character when I was like 8 or 9 (I'm 41 now lol) and was kinda really bummed that I couldn't get the name on Virtue, so I named her Elizabeth Spade.  But now? She's Queen of Spades again!  If you want to hit me up, this is my global name too. :)

  17. Hi

     

    My tequila stops on "verifying"

     

    Do Need to reinstall?

     

    Let me know

     

    It was fine yesterday

     

    thanks.

     

    Check what I said above about how technically Tequila is a virus by definition (but so is the World of Warcraft patcher and most other video game patchers these days) as that might be the issue, your AV program is blocking it.

  18. Hi Guys is it still down?

     

    Let me know my tequila won't load today?

     

    thx.

     

    Well, is it Tequila itself? If so you might check you Anti-virus.  Due to the use of Heuristics for patching purposes, Anti-virus programs tend to block Tequila (and many other legit uses of Heuristics.) Most games use them for patching these days (otherwise you would have to download the entirety of every little file that had changed, instead you download only what's changed and the patch program modifies the existing file (which IS by definition virus behavior)) but it's only the big games like for example World of Warcraft or such that the AV companies pre-flag to ignore the fact that the patch program is acting like a virus on the game files.  You can add an exception to the game folder, or in an emergency if you need to reinstall after your AV has deleted the Tequila exe (it will do that, delete the 'virus' when it tries to update) or you can with some AV programs temporarily turn it off for 10min, just long enough for Tequila to patch itself.
