  1. Moved one of my Reunion level 50 Tanks, Hard Knoxx, to Excelsior and into the SO? Supergroup. That way I can Exem down to play with @Bionic_Flea and @ZemX.. if I can ever catch up with them. You guys are so far ahead of my Defender it would be laughable ( He's Level 10 ). Switched Hard Knoxx to his 2nd build which I will populate tonight with SOs, I had only just started installing IO Sets, but didn't want to waste them. He has all his Incarnate Slots open but no abilities installed. Any abilities he has from P2W i will not be putting in his tray, except perhaps Reveal, since most of the Maps are already "revealed" but I want to get some more exploration badges on him.
  2. Depending on what the differences are between your old PC and the new Shiny One are may give you a few hints. If you didn't have any issues before the change, most likely it is the increased speed and processing power of the new PC is exposing a weakness in the network. Packet loss and Latency are killers with CoH and most other Interactive Connections, Streaming may work perfectly over the same connection because it is buffered. The more info you can give us the easier it may be to find a solution. What are the Specs of the old and new PC? Was there a change in the Network Card type, say the old was 10/100, and the new is 10/100/1000. Are you running Wireless or on a wired connection? A newer PC is going to expect a faster connection on Wireless than the old one did, Wired is always better.
  3. I really appreciate all the work @The Philotic Knight has done with CoH Modder and all his other behind the scenes efforts to improve the Quality of Life for everyone, it does not go unnoticed. I also appreciate the efforts of @Solarverse, and also @Blondeshell, @AboveTheChemist and the entire VidiotsMaps crew. Thanks for all the great work.
  4. Have AC Volt ( Electric Affinity / Electric Blast Defender ) to Level 10, just cashed in 8 Reward Merits for 9 Enhancement Converters and 1 Booster, Sold them and ended up with 1,500,000 influence. Totally kitted out in level 10 SOs and still have 1,250,000 influence and 13 reward merits left. Decided to go to Kings Row (Shawna Stockwell. Eagle Eye). Have created a Supergroup, " SO? ", and set up a base with TP, Rez to Base, ICON Rep, Field Analyst, Quartermaster, Pillar of Ice and Flame, Merit Vendor Terminal, Storage and an AutoDoc on Excelsior. Send a tell to @Marine X if you wish to join. If you just wish to use the base Passcode is SO-17966.
  5. There is a MOD available, not quite what you requested.....but at least it's possible.
  6. I think that they may have alternates for all of those through COH Modder, just have to look in the latest available Mod List,
  7. Once In game, go to the "Menu, Options, Graphics and Audio, Advanced Graphics Settings" , then scroll down to "Mouse Cursor", if set to "Color" switch it to " Compatibility Mode " and see if that fixes it.
  8. I would be interested in trying this, no guarantees of my stick-too-a-tive-ness until I see how the first 10 levels go, if someone ( @Bionic_Flea? ) started a SG so we had at Least a way to see who's participating and how they are doing. I usually play during the week between 4:00-6:00 am EDT, UTC -4, so I doubt I'll see anyone. Weekends Vary, but I usually find some time between projects. Is there an AT that no one has mentioned doing for the sake of diversity?
  9. I got an early Beta invite to help test City of Villains, I had a Grand Idea in my head of how it was going to work. As a villain, you would be trying to Steal something, Blow something up, Plot World Domination or Kidnap someone for a Ransom, and there would be actual Hero Players trying to stop You. I know this game hadn't really developed PVP at that point ( all we had was the Arena ) but that's how I saw it working. No separate Zones to keep us away from each other, Everyone in one big City, being a Hero or Villain, and clashing when they crossed paths with maybe a few Villain only Strongholds Well none of that happened, and I guess I understand why, but it was a bit of a disappointment only because I was expecting something else, it just didn't fit with how Comic Books were written. I had a few Villains but mostly Heroes, PVP was not what I thought it would be like, so I kinda bailed on that too. I have a few Villains on Homecoming but still struggle to remain interested in playing them and tend to sneak off and roll another hero. I agree that overall the writing is better and am trying to give Redside a chance to grow on me, we'll see.
  10. The Secret torture room off the Tunnels under Grandville, complete with Moaning and Wailing audio track, somebody was having some Unauthorized Fun I heard.
  11. Just got my Energy Melee / Regen Brute to 50 and starting on my Incarnates. Have really enjoyed leveling him up ( Praetorian / Hero ), and am enjoying Dark Astoria ( Have got the First of the 2 Badges for Soloing Missions ). EM has Good Damage, Regen is Regen, and requires a lot more Clicking, but has been good and getting even better as I open Incarnate slots. Major Thumbs up. Love the travel Redo, the new TP options took some getting used to, but I really like. and now, Geez, I'm going to have to roll a Trick Arrow Toon, just can't decide what AT and additional Set, dammit.... I had planned on Painting my House this summer. oh well, gotta have Priorities.
  12. Really? That sounds like somebody changed something they probably shouldn't have, but definitely would cause me to stop and stare. Where else has she been sighted and starting how long ago?
  13. Easiest thing to do is to install COH Modder in the " C : Games/Homecoming " Directory or whatever location on your hard drive you installed COH to. Once installed Select Vidiots Maps from the available Mods list, then click the download button, it will download the latest version and then click install. Easy and includes the most recent version. Also gives you the option to install any other Mods available, high Viz mouse pointers, etc. There is a large thread discussing it here on the forums. Good Luck.
  14. I would suddenly realize what a strange place Paragon City truly is. 1) No Children ( Except Baby New Year, who has a face even a Mother would be challenged to Love ) 2) No Playgrounds ( see item 1 ), no Airport, no Car Dealerships, & no Dogs or Cats. Of course 1000s of Rikti Monkeys are looking for a Family to adopt them. 3) You can take on Powerful Adversaries, then get stuck on a Bush, Potted Plant or a Chair, and have to jump around like a crazy person to free yourself. 4} Vehicles drive aimlessly up and down the streets with no drivers, and no apparent destination, and constantly blow thru Red Lights and Stop Signs. 5) All Elevators only go up or down 1 floor, but stairs can span 3 or more floors, my best guess is it would take about a day to get to the top floor of a Skyscraper. 6) Contacts can give and take mission items over the Phone, nice feature, " I would like 1 large Detroit Style Pepperoni Pizza Please ". 7) Valuable items are never in a Safe or Safety Deposit Box Room but are instead in a Hallway behind a Potted Plant or stashed under the stairs. 8) Sex Changes are Available at Icon with no Appointment and take only a few minutes, wow, now that's service. 9) Pedestrians will walk from 200' away square into you and push you out of their way, but won't reliably follow you out of a cave you rescued them from. 10) ALL Restroom Doors in the ENTIRE CITY are locked, which is going to become an issue in about an Hour or so........( where's that potted plant when you need it ). 11) Hey, wait a second....AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! I have no Fingers, AAAAAAHHHH!!!! just a thumb and a flipper AAAAAAAAHHHH!!!
  15. "Painted Sky", Plant Control/Storm Summoning Controller.
  16. That was where we started this thread. It was a honest question, not a challenge to anyone in particular. He asked how to report what he felt were Offensive Characters. When the game was in it's original incarnation this sort of thing got sorted out without a lot of player involvement because the Paid staff was such that they were actively looking at such things. If there was a violation of the game's policy, and remember it was rated TEEN, they really didn't spend a lot of time fretting about what to do, they acted. We are not in that situation anymore. We expect a lot out of a small staff that has a lot better things to do with their time than remind people that they aren't 12 anymore. To my estimation the majority of the Original Players from Live were between 12 and 25 during the early years, that makes them now between 28 and 41, at least. They should know better. I started in 2004 at 40, and am now 57, and am not above an Occasional Off color Joke, but if called out on it, I probably knew better, I just needed reminded. We are a VERY self Policed Community, and need to keep it where people can bring there kids here and not be nervous about them seeing something inappropriate.
  17. Apologies to Peter Gabriel but what about: Red Reign or Blood Helm
  18. Invulnerability does seem to have the distinction of being the Primary Set for an AT where virtually No one actually uses the T9 power, unless it's as a Proc Mule. Just seems unnecessarily risky to use, and I very seldom use it, mostly because I don't need to, which is a testament to how good the set is without it. It seems like a relic from the early game where it may have been useful.
  19. That was it, the Modder was updating itself to the tequila directory, did a fresh install of Modder to HC Launcher directory and now it's working, thanks.
  20. CoH Modder shows the version as V10, and it shows the details of the update as including the Abandoned Sewers, but I still see the same map and the old badge location when I log into the game. Where is the entrance to Dr V's lab anyway? Found it in the Linked post and got the Badge, weird that I have the current version but it's still showing the old texture.
  21. Thanks, guess I missed that one.
  22. Have went to he Underground where badge is marked by Vidiot Maps but no badge marker or Badge awarded. The Wiki says it is actually on a raised platform at the back of Dr. Vaz's Lab, not where Vidiot's shows it at, and shows Coordinates -576, -576, -1536 on the zone badge overview page then -896, -890, -1018 on the Living Dark Badge page, and City Info Tracker also shows it at the first set of Coordinates, I'm confused.......
  23. Also still around here, I actually did the whole trip, satisfying my CoX addiction with Titan Icon, Paragon Chat and now Homecoming. Was Marine X and Livingston in the GA Supergroup and Hemlok in the Villian Group. Good to see another GameAmp Alumnus.
  24. I believe the command is "/windowclose trayX" , where X = the tray number, for trays past the standard 1-3, they begin at 4, and end at 9. So if you only have 1 extra tray you want to eliminate it would be " /windowclose tray4". Hope that helps, at work so I can't test it.
  25. There is also a HUGE swing of difficulty going from Nightstar, or Diabolique to Reichsman, regardless if -1 or +4. Was on a team of 6 on a EM/Regen Brute as the "Tank" for the Dr Kahn Taskforce at +4 x 8. Had to be rezzed multiple times during the AV fight because I got hit with something my limited resists couldn't handle. We got him, it just took a while, which the Team Leader said was actually hard for less than a full team at that difficulty. It didn't help to have a bunch of his Friends show up: Countess Crey ( AV ) Gyrfalcon ( AV ) Nemesis ( AV ) Vanessa DeVore ( AV ) That has always been one of the hardest AV Fights I've run into because of the Reichsman's ridiculous amount of hitpoints and the AV spawns.
