That would take a looooong time. I won't be putting in the hard long hours in to making that mod, lol.

That's a good one too. I tried that one out before creating mine. I just wanted something with more thump and less buzz. I also tried out the Banshee SFX Mod for Sonic, that damn thing is so fricken good I didn't feel the need to make a Sonic one. He made that mod exactly like I would have, heh. The more Mods and options we can get the better as far as I am concerned, and I feel people should try all of them before settling on one. Never kn ow what you might be missing.

Well now there is! I have been working on a few mods as of late and I wanted to share them with the rest of the community. The mods I have set up so far are as follows. Revamp of the City of Heroes theme song Revamp of the Atlas Plaza theme song Star Wars Blaster SFX for Dual Pistols A very appealing SFX Mod for Beam Rifle Original Peacebringer SFX that reverts the recent PB SFX nerf. There are more mods out there that have been created by several other players and I am working with another poster on getting these mods all together and into a centralized location. The goal is to make ALL CoH Mods accessible to all players and easy to find. You'll be updated once this happens. As of right now... The link, description and directions on how to install the mods that have been mentioned are in my Sig. Enjoy!

It sure makes you feel like you are hitting harder, doesn't it? lol

Stone melee on a Stalker or Scrapper would just look silly to me. I used to like it when certain powers were specific to certain classes. Now we are moving closer and closer to a point where these classes dont have much of anything that's unique. I personally wouldn't want to see it get any worse than it already is, so I'm gonna say no.

Oh my god, I remember that! HAHAHAHA!

Nope, I refuse to argue with Time Manipulation and Nature Affinity! *Runs away as fast as I can*

This is most likely NEVER going to happen, but just in case the Devs ever get a design crew going, I would like to officially put in a request to either get a mission in a story arc that takes us out in to space, or a new zone that takes place in space that would be similar to the Shadow Shard...and actually have many missions and things to do there. Or, we can even change one of the shards into a Cosmic zone full of Asteroids, small planets, maybe even Earth's Moon. Possibilities are endless if the Devs can ever get a hold of a couple of good programmers/designers. Like I said, the odds of this happening is about .05%, however, even the Seattle Mariners could play in the World Series....anything is possible. However, I think we have a better chance of seeing a Cosmic Zone added to the game than the Seattle Mariners have of ever seeing the World Series. 😄

Could the real J-Man please stand up? So I have heard The J-Man is back and he is playing on the Excelsior Server. Any of you who played on Freedom may know of him. So if the Real J-Man would please stand up...we can give the guy a proper welcome back.

I have personally found Perma Hasten is seldom worth the effort. I feel very few builds benefit from it.

Most games have a volume control for Ambiences as well as regular game sounds along with Music sounds. Sadly this game does not have those options. It's either what was said earlier in the thread or play with your sound lower. 😞

All very good advice. Yes, I practice much of what is mentioned above, but the info is solid and I appreciate your additions to the topic. Thank you.

WARNING!!! These SFX Mods are designed for the Game to play back only! City of Heroes plays back the volume at a much different level than the actual file has them set to. In the event that you wish to play them back manually, NEVER play back these sound files in any way without first turning the volume down on your Laptop/PC. The game plays back volumes at a far lower level than your PC/Laptop will, and if you play back the files without first turning down your volume, you can possibly cause damage to your speakers! Force Field SFX Mod! (Detailed Explanation) This gives Force Field a brand new SFX that has a unique sound that is out of this world and in my opinion much pleasing to the ear. This mod gives the bubbles a deeper and solid feel rather than the high pitched door squeak sound that they have today. There is a bit of static in the sounds from the video, this is because the volume of the files had to be increased considerably for the game to sue them at a normal volume. In game, they sound pretty good. This SFX Mod also goes very well with the Psionic Mod as the two were designed with each other in mind.

Archery Primary SFX Mod! (Detailed Explanation) This gives Archery a more relatable SFX that is often heard in the theaters.

Psionic Blast SFX Mod (Detailed Explanation) Note: There are two different mods that go in two different locations. Both mods work in unity with the other and both will need to be placed in the correct locations. As per request, this is a Mod that gives Psionic Blast a brand new Sound Effect.

Flight and Recharge SFX Mods (Detailed Explanation) Note: These are two different Mods that require two different paths. Please follow instructions below. I think we can all agree that the recharging sound effects are just outright annoying to listen to. There's good news! Now you don't have to! This is much quieter and way less annoying to hear.

Kinetic Melee Soul Mage Mod (Detailed Explanation) This is a Mod that gives your Kinetic Melee the Sound Effects of dark Soul Magic! I think Kinetic Melee sounds "okay" but this mod really makes the set stand out. It is good for two things. First: Role Players will love this for their Mage themed characters. It sounds a bit on the dark magic side, but can work for both dark magic and light magic alike. The second: It is for sure different and may spice the set up for anyone who would just like to try something different and flashier.

New Lightning Ranged Attacks Sound Effects! (Detailed Explanation) This is a Mod that gives your Lightning ranged attacks the feel of more power! I always felt like there should be more boom for your buck, I mean, after all, lightning is crackling through the air emanating from your fists, so they should at least sound like they are as powerful as a bolt of lightning! So here it is! (Quick Note: All powers were changed with the exception of the Snipe Ability. Only the charge up for the snipe could be adjusted, the file for the actual attack could not be located and I suspect snipe attack files are server side only. If anyone locates the file, please let me know and I will change it as well, but the charge up for it alone is for sure worth it!) Enjoy!

New Lightning Field Sound Effects! (Detailed Explanation) Okay folks, this one is for you! I personally never had an issue with the SFX for Lightning Field, I actually loved the Sounds from that the toggle power, but I have seen a few threads pop up as of late from players who hate it and asked for an option to turn it off or not have to hear it from other players who are using it. So, since I was already working on the Elec Primary powers for a more powerful sounding Primary, I decided while I was at it I would make this one for that one power players hate on the secondary as well. This mod gives Lightning Field a new sound effect that is much quieter and easier on the ears, while at the same time it is also an appealing sound to listen to. This sound is not deafening and should help those of you who hate the current sound effects. For those of you who just want to try out something different, I think you'll like it as well. I personally like it so much that I am still currently using it even after the testing phase. The instructions are below, hope you enjoy!

New Improved (in my opinion) Atlas Plaza Music Mod! (Detailed Explanation) This is a mod to replace the music you hear when you approach the Atlas Statue in Atlas Plaza. This is an updated version of the original song that you hear, but with a bit more spirit. I would love to post a video for you guys to see but sadly, for the time being, this is against the EULA. Once that restriction is lifted I'll post a video. In the meantime, you can unzip the file and give it a try before you actually put the mod in. I for one love it and wish there was a way I could share with you guys and gals without you having to unzip the file first, but sadly this isn't an option as of right now. You'll just have to trust me when I say, I think you'll love this new updated version of the song. The path and name of the files wil be a bit different, so please follow the instructions below.

New Beam Rifle Sound Effects! (Detailed Explanation) Edit: Modified the Aim SFX as of 3/22/2020 Edit: Modified Overcharge Hit SFX 3/22/2020 Edit: Modified All SFX Volumes 3/23/2020 I have personally never liked the sound effects for Beam Rifle. I have tried out another mod, and although it was a huge improvement over the original and I do believe that would be the better mod for some players; depending on taste, it just wasn't quite for me. So I did a little searching for sound bites and did a little mixing to come up with this new Sound Mod for Beam Rifle. These sounds have more of a thump to them rather than a buzz (if that makes any sense) with a bit more bass, giving them a heavy hitting sound effect that makes me personally feel like my shots are hitting very hard. The longer animated abilities no longer have a continuous beam sound, but rather a rapid fire sound. I know it is not a rapid fire animation, but after trying it out, I find that it somehow works. I went to great lengths to time the sound effects to fit the animations and for those of you who prefer a hard hitting beefy sound, this sound effects zip file may be just what you were waiting for.
