The Fifth Horseman

The vidiotmaps executable is just an unpacker for the textures. You must run it, not copy it into the game directory.

One thing to try is to delete tequila.exe, tequila.xml and tequilalog.xml from the game directory, Tequila's settings from your system registry (see Silk's Install & Troubleshooting thread) and reinstall Tequila. Another option is to create a batch file (.BAT extension) in the game's directory with the following contents: start homecoming.exe -patchversion 2019.06.05 -auth 51.79.19.146 -patchdir homecoming Double-clicking the batch file will launch the game same as you'd get through Tequila. It will only work until the next patch for main Homecoming (although a change of authserver, executable name or patch directory would likewise stop the workaround from functioning)

Do you get any error messages when the crash occurs?

Vidiotmaps doesn't really have an operating system requirement. It's a texture replacement, and those textures will work on any system that runs COH.

IIRC Sorcery was in i24 beta client but not on the live i23 servers

Paragonwiki should only cover original COH material (including the i24 beta content). The rogue servers all diverge from it in some way and what's valid info for one RS may not be valid for another. We don't really need disputes over which RS should be covered by PW as the "main" server these days (and there would always be some disputes). So my vote goes for a new Wiki.

You should head over to the OuroDev discord and ask in the Portal Corps channels. As I understand, the source code does contain source for 3D Studio Max plugins for several 3DSMax versions (old ones, obviously) and some sort of costume asset editor. I can't say for sure if anyone managed to compile them into an operational state or not.

No, that ship has sailed. Nobody sane is going to develop it as a standalone game for legal reasons (you know, like lack of a goddamn license). The version found in Tabletop Simulator is the extent of what you get.

It's a know issue. Azuria's location isn't the only one.

That's not what I told you to do. As I've explained, the WMIC command needs to be ran as administrator. This is something that must be explicitly used even if your user account has administrator privileges (yes, it tripped me too). This is why we're going through creating the batch file. Once you have the batch file, you can right-click it, then choose "Run as administrator" from the context menu without having to go through any additional trouble or entering any further commands. You saved as a text file. After selecting "All Files", you need to make sure that at the end of the file name you've entered, there is a dot and BAT written after the dot ( .bat ). That's the file extension. Without that extension, your OS will not treat it as a batch file.

Uhm, I gave them... it's just that I messed up the code tags and quote tags. The command hasn't been posted in another thread on here, it's a repurposing of something I've used to solve task priority issues in Mirror's Edge: Catalyst. So to reiterate: You need to run the batch file while the game is already running. Unfortunately, you will need to do it every time you launch the game. The alternative is creating a different .bat file to run the game itself, BUT that may prevent you from playing if there's a change in executable name, patch directory, authserver IP or patch date.

How are you starting the game? Exactly, step by step please.

Sound is a vibration, ergo a form of energy. Energy power sets could be made to work, with the excuse that it's not raw energy, it's just really concentrated sound. Sound typically propagates through air... so perhaps air manipulation through sound could thematically fit?

I just remembered something. wmic process where name="homecoming.exe" CALL setpriority "high priority" Save that as a batch file (.bat extension) on your desktop. After starting the game, run the batch file as an admin (specific right-click option for this)

Intel HD Graphics. See Silk's thread for workaround.

Pie-in-the-sky would require creation of completely new animations and FX, but your concept just repurposes things that are already present. To add some fuel to this: Caltrops (found in Ninjutsu , Martial Assault and Scrapper's version of Weapon Mastery) could work thematically for the control power - but so count Ninjutsu:Smoke Flash and Weapon Mastery: Web Grenade (with different stats possibly) Widow Training has Poison Dart and Dart Burst, both of which could kind of work as the low-tier attack you're talking about.

Since I know for a fact that the invite is valid, your remaining option is to contact the GMs and inquire why have they banned you from the Discord.

There already is a thread for this - let's keep it in one place? https://forums.homecomingservers.com/index.php/topic,3643.0.html Ehhh. Doing things within the costume creator's limits is kind of the challenge. Client-side mods break those limits, which makes them somewhat cheaty in the context.

There's already a thread with this: https://forums.homecomingservers.com/index.php/topic,3643.0.html

Delete Tequila settings from your system registry (see Silk's thread), IIRC this fixed the issue for some players before.

+1 to that. I've got a cyborg toon (several versions of her, actually) who would appreciate less conspicuous cyberlimbs.

Someone apparently already did, for the Tabletop Simulator: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=395363230

None of the above. What you should run is Compatibility Administrator(32 bit)
