  1. Updated Tequila.xml to new one after the server migrationg it in the OP too. Tequila.xml updated to 5/16/2019 https://ufile.io/joqavarh
  2. Why are you installed at: You should be installed more like Some people have had issues with the gamer files being installed in the "root folder" which is E:/ in this case. Everything should be in the City of Heroes folder, the game files and the Tequila files and the score files though now the score folder needs to be named "homecoming". For example after the server migration I renamed the "score" folder (inside the city of heroes folder) to homecoming. I then started tequila it updated real quick and created a homecoming.exe. This new exe replaces the score.exe so I deleted the score.exe. Everything loads up fine. It what I was saying before if you dont find the error or problem you will keep having problems of this nature.
  3. Updated with missing mouse cursor fix.
  4. I just want to add that Madmarcus, see quote, is not running this via Rum but rather a bottled version using tequila. There's a "Installing made easy for MacOS users" post in my guide on page 7 and that's what Madmarcus is using. Please feel free to test it out and let us know know how it goes. https://score.savecoh.com/index.php/topic,372.90.html As you can see others, peeps in discord too, have had success with it.
  5. Yikes! Has there been an announcement that the anniversary badges are slated to disappear? I've been taking it easy but it changes if they're officially scheduled to expire. What? Say it aint so....
  6. I will mention this to Arakendo when I have a chance.
  7. Silk

    Recharge and you!

    Massages head...very interesting...lol
  8. Arakendo should be able to get you all set up he was around not long ago too.
  9. Thanks for the feedback, I will let Arakendo know it helped you! @Madmarcus Can you get on Homecoming Discord and reach out to Arakendo? I don't use Macs so I am simply relaying all this from others for people here on the forums. He is the one that will really be able to help you. BTW did you do the last bit in the Notes section?

    Spines/Fire

    Alrighty played a little more got to lvl 19 noticed most of my enhancements, are red....might explain why I was sucking a little and why Veles kicked my arse.....lolz Now like I said the build in the OP is more of an aspire to build so I am looking at a "leveling build".....I just want to get the powers in the order of the build in the OP but with different enhacements. I am looking to get IO's I can craft myself and get easily, the one's available/craftable at the university/sgbase. Mostly I want IO's cause I just want to sell the enhancements I get as drop and not have to be thinking about...oh darn they're red now and useless. Btw using Pine's updated builder how do we set a level for IO's other than max or min level? The Io's I have right now are lvl 15 not 10, I dunno how to change set it to lvl 15 in the builder, I'm only seeing an option for min or max level. Right now I have: Hero Plan by Mids' Hero Designer 1.962 http://www.cohplanner.com/ Click this DataLink to open the build! Silky leveling: Level 49 Mutation Scrapper Primary Power Set: Spines Secondary Power Set: Fiery Aura Power Pool: Speed Power Pool: Leaping Power Pool: Fighting Hero Profile: Level 1: Lunge (A) Syndicate Techniques (3) Empty Level 1: Fire Shield (A) Empty Level 2: Spine Burst (A) Damage Increase IO (3) Damage Increase IO (5) Empty (5) Empty Level 4: Healing Flames (A) Empty (7) Empty (7) Empty Level 6: Blazing Aura (A) Damage Increase IO (9) Empty (9) Damage Increase IO (11) Empty (11) Empty (13) Empty Level 8: Super Speed (A) Empty Level 10: Hasten (A) Recharge Reduction IO (13) Empty Level 12: Combat Jumping (A) Empty (15) Empty Level 14: Boxing (A) Damage Increase IO (15) Damage Increase IO (17) Empty (19) Empty Level 16: Plasma Shield (A) Empty (17) Empty Level 18: Build Up (A) Empty (19) Empty Level 20: [Empty] Level 22: [Empty] Level 24: [Empty] Level 26: [Empty] Level 28: [Empty] Level 30: [Empty] Level 32: [Empty] Level 35: [Empty] Level 38: [Empty] Level 41: [Empty] Level 44: [Empty] Level 47: [Empty] Level 49: [Empty] Level 1: Brawl (A) Empty Level 1: Critical Hit Level 1: Prestige Power Dash (A) Empty Level 1: Prestige Power Slide (A) Empty Level 1: Prestige Power Quick (A) Empty Level 1: Prestige Power Rush (A) Empty Level 1: Prestige Power Surge (A) Empty Level 1: Sprint (A) Empty Level 2: Rest (A) Empty Level 4: Ninja Run Level 2: Swift (A) Empty Level 2: Health (A) Empty Level 2: Hurdle (A) Jumping IO Level 2: Stamina (A) Empty ------------ I also have just been storing all my salvage and recipes that I do get. I was wondering what I should do with the recipes? I was thinking just store them but maybe I should sell them. I am unsure about their levels though and read something about the AH not caring about levels so someone could buy your lvl 10 recipe and it will become a lvl 50 for him or some such? I am thinking of crafting a few more 20 IO's that I can and try and get stuff for lvl 25 IO's to fill up more slots.
  11. Have a look here: https://score.savecoh.com/index.php/topic,1345.0.html It's about base background music, not sure you can modufy other game sounds so much as they are in the piggs. I do think you can mute some though.
  12. Your Welcome! Can I ask which part helped you exactly? Was it with installation or some other fix?
  13. Have you tried zooming far out so you can see the top of the column and click it to then remove it? I have done that a few times and with some fiddling around manage to get rid of them I forget if I have to select object or whatnot...
  14. Silk, is there any difference in the length/size of the files that play and don't play? In other words, are the ones that don't play longer/larger files? I was wondering if there is a file limit... Okay had some time to fiddle around today so ran some tests. Testing if sound keep playing while running around, not looped and didn't listen to the whole song. Using the command: /sgmusic "name" Songs that play and don't cut off while moving: Back in Black ~ 14.7MB 4:17s Damage Inc. ~ 18.7MB 5:30s Devils Island ~ 18MB 5:05s Hook in Mouth ~ 16.3MB 4:40s Paradise City ~ 22.8MB 6:47s Shoot to Thrill ~ 18.4MB 5:20s Thunderstruck ~ 16.5MB 4:55s Trapped Under Ice ~ 13.8MB 4:04s Welcome Home ~ 20.6MB 6:28s Welcome to the Jungle ~ 15.2MB 4:30s Whiplash ~ 13.3MB 4:10s You Shook Me ~ 12.4MB 3:32s The Four Horsemen ~ 23.1MB 7:13s Song plays but cuts off if I move: Am I Evil ~ 26.7MB 7:50s testmix ~ 107MB 31:20s Could use more testing but if filesize has a limit I would guess it's between 23.1MB and 26.7MB or if length of song has a limit it would be between 7:13s and 7:50s.
  15. Go to discord and get help from a GM there.
  16. Thanks. Updated OpenGL fix in my previous post to v2.
  17. I have some imgur images in my Elite Dangerous thread that are two+ years old but can't say for sure for imgur. For postimage though you have option and can choose "Never expires".
  18. Updated to v2. # How to fix City of Heroes issues with OpenGL on Intel video cards (GPUs) This process was created by the SCOTS team in order to allow you to create what is known as a driver shim. This is basically a way to force the Intel driver (which is the root of this issue, not City of Heroes at all) to work in compatibility mode for an older version of Windows. Usually this sort of thing is handled by the folks who made the driver or by a game's developers. Since we lack the latter here & Intel doesn't seem to care about OpenGL support, we're forced to do this ourselves instead. It may be worth attempting to run CoX in compatibility mode (Win7/8/8.1) first. That's not a universal solution but some report it does the trick and is much simpler. Ask how in one of the support channels on the Discords if you're unsure! List of Intel GPUs confirmed to operate well with this fix: * Intel HD 3000 Please let a member of SCOTS know if more GPUs are confirmed to work with this. I will be happy to update this as we go. Anything I ask you to type will be enclosed in quotes. DO NOT include the quotes, they're just to make clear what you need to type. Any bold text below is either a button label that you need to click or the name of the window or list where we are. ### Let's figure out which version of Windows 10 you're on: 1. Right click the Start menu in the lower left of your screen and choose System. 2. Scroll down to Windows specifications and look for the Version. It should be 1607, 1703, 1709, 1803, 1809, or 1903. 3. Go to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/get-started/adk-install & download the Windows ADK for your version of Windows. ### Now to install the program: 1. Run ADKsetup.exe when it is downloaded. 2. Leave the top option selected & click Next. 3. Choose whether to send Microsoft some usage data & click Next. 4. Click Accept after reading the agreement (ha!). 5. Uncheck everything in the list of features & click to check Application Compatibility Toolkit. 6. Click Install & choose Yes when asked if you wish to allow it to make changes to your computer. 7. Click Close and restart the computer if prompted. ### Now we need to run the "Compatibility Administrator(32 bit)" program: 1. Click your Start Menu (usually in the lower left of the screen). 2. The application should be at the top. If not, start typing the name above though there's no obvious box to type in. 3. Click it when it shows up. 4. Click Yes again to allow it to make changes to your computer (it needs to be run as an administrator). 5. Select New Database(1) [untitled_1] under Custom Databases from the list on the left. 6. If Custom Databases is not present, click the New button above. Otherwise, skip to the next step. 7. Click the Fix above. ### Now we're in the "Create new Application Fix" window: 1. Type "City of Heroes" in the first box. 2. Type anything you wish in the middle Name of the vendor for this program box. 3. Click the Browse button & locate the game's folder. * If you do not know where your folder is, ask whoever you got these steps from or seek assistance in the Discord's tech help channel. 4. Click one time to select score.exe then click the Open button. * This may only say score depending on your system's settings. If so, select the one with the City of Heroes icon, not a folder icon. 5. Click the Next button to proceed. 6. Click Next to skip the Compatibility Mode options. 7. Scroll down the Compatibility Fixes list to Win81RTMVersionLie & click the box to the left of it. - You may press the W key on your keyboard to jump most of the way but don't check any other boxes accidentally if you do so. 8. Click the Parameters button above the list. ### Now we are in the "Options for Win81RTMVersionLie" window: 1. Leave the Command line box completely blank. 2. Type "ig4icd32.dll" in the Module Name box. 3. Click the Add button to the right then click the OK button below. 4. This brings you to the Create new Application fix window. Click the Next button. ### We're now in the "Matching Information" list: 1. Click the Unselect All button to the bottom of the left. 2. Click the checkbox for ORIGINAL_FILENAME=CityOfHeroes.exe. 3. Click the checkbox for INTERNAL_NAME=CityOfHeroes. 4. Click the Finish button below. ### We're now back in the main view of the Compatibility Administrator: 1. Click the Save button at the top of the window. 2. Type "CoH OpenGL" in the Database Name box then click the OK button. 3. A new Save Database window opens. Type "CoHOpenGLShim" in the File name box at the bottom. 4. Click the Save button to the bottom near the right side. 5. Right click CoH OpenGL [C:\Games\City of Heroes\CoHOpenGLShim.sdb] and choose Install. * Note that the C:\Games\City of Heroes part varies. Your path, if different, will show there instead. 6. Click OK to the prompt when it's installed. Try running the game. Hopefully it'll work but if not, please be certain to let someone in the Discord tech assistance channels know! You may have a slightly different Intel driver file or something which we can help you identify. Inspired by videos at https://pal1000.github.io/shared/tutorials/legacy-igpu-ogl-fix-win10.mov and the same video on YouTube. We're uncertain which is the original source. https://pastebin.com/shHxr7hV
  19. I like to use imgur and postimage
  20. Installing made easy for MacOS users. Note this is a WIP and first write up so there may be changes and more clarifications edited in later on. Credits to Arakendo for providing the download for mac users and putting time into making this possible. For now I will provide a 30 day link to the file and will make either a torrent or a permanent link to this site later on. Everything you need to play the game should be bottled in including wine, the game files and Tequila. Step one: First you will need a program to extract the archive, Arakendo used Keka available here: https://www.keka.io/en/ Step two: Download the "cohmac" archive here: https://ufile.io/laoezbww Step three: Extract the archive using Keka and double click the app file and run it. Put it in your apps folder but it should run fine anywhere. Step four: Now to avoid the MacOS security problem. When running anything downloaded from internet, you have to verify with System Preferences > Security > General to let it run. First run will take a while as MacOS will sit there and “verify” files for like 3-5 minutes. Notes: If "wine preloader" seems to hang and not complete, install the following: https://www.xquartz.org/ Reboot after installing the above. For troubleshooting, if you open that with explorer, navigate to Contents>MacOS folder, there is a single file like a bat file. If you run that, it will show the errors in “terminal” (Mac cmd prompt).
  21. Like korbian said above or check out my guide for more options and details to reset resolution, it may be saved in your registry settings. See my guide link in my siggy.
  22. My guide btw doesn't suggest directly to c drive but to C:/Games/Gamefolder Happy you got it working though!
  23. Dunno then I have some files that don't seem to work properly either..they will work if I stand still, it can take a good few seconds before it starts playing..... though if I move jump or type in chat music stops but only some files do this. For example: my thunderstruck.ogg plays fine, I can run around or _loop it and all works as its suppose to. my amievil.ogg plays but if I move or jump poof music cuts off. I have no idea why, they were both converted from flac to ogg with the same program too.
  24. Recheck see if you anti virus is flagging tequila.exe/score.exe etc
  25. Just move the whole game folder over to the new pc, it might ask you for the install path choose your game folder in what ever location you paste it in. You might have to add AV exception again etc and make sure not to put in weird place with permission restrictions.
