lower numbers are better

[mapserver connection issues]

yes you are correct it implies that the servers are becoming more popular so they will be an increase in traffic

[Game keeps crashing at random]

please look up hardware diagnostics for your computer if you are having abnormal issues such as these

h^^ps://www.hwinfo.com/files/hwi_614.exe

also a connection test with h^^ps://speedtest.net can also rule out connection issues (i would suggest another state or country outside of your provider)

i tested this scenario with Linux (not windows) and tried full-screen, windowed and border-less and was NOT able to reproduce.

I'm confused. The only mention I see of the game files was in the troubleshooting guide v2. Since those links have expired is there no other way to download the game files?

with tequila or island rum

Didn't we used to be able to Choose which GPU to use for the PhysiX? I vaguely recall being able to set either my NVidia or my APU (i7) as the default PhysiX card. Unless that was something the 2010-2012 Nvidia/Win7 drivers allowed...IDK, I'm still using the same configuration I had back then, so I suppose I Could go driver poking.

while i had 2 nvidia cards you could set the in windows nvidia tool to set the system defaults for you sli and physx

this was in the nvidia tool standalone and didnt reflect well in games as the tool would override your games selections (or block the game from seeing the second card)

[Getting kicked out in kings row.]

Sounds like you have bad files, re-scan and reverify.

if that doesnt work delete the folder (save your key bindings first if you have them)

your antivirus or firewall might also be limiting your game from using the correct files or connecting to the server

[64 bit island rum]

it will most likely be a working directory issue with ~/.wine/drive_c/CoX/ and ~/.wine/drive_c/CoX/hc-bin64/CityofHeroes.exe being in another directory

thats the paths on my wine system

please make sure you are setting the regular folder as the working directory and the executable path to the homecoming 64 bit

 

or just delete all the CoH files and re-download

[Repeated BSOD last week]

90% of BSOD means your hard drive is failing

or you have other major issues like thermal (it's to hot) which can mean a power issue

[Problem updating with linux]

make sure your manifest target is http://patch.savecoh.com/manifest.xml

if you are using a terminal script like etoh-downloader it will "skip" to the next target for the download

you will have to run it a few times if you are getting 403

 

the 403 probably means the files isnt allowed to be accessed by the public, like it's being updated

[Patch Notes for August 22nd, 2019]
