Adurias Posted June 19, 2020 Posted June 19, 2020 For what it's worth, I have just brought City of Heroes back to live on my old Lenovo T430 with Intel HD 3000 on Windows 10 1909. Used the 1903 ADK and fixed the path from /tequila/homecoming.exe to /tequila/hc-bin32/cityofheroes.exe - followed the other steps to the letter. Hope that helped.
City Council Number Six Posted September 16, 2020 City Council Posted September 16, 2020 Is there anyone who has successfully used the shim method to get the game running on an Intel HD 3000 or similar chip, and is willing to help me test a different method that may be easier for new players to use? @Adurias or @LightningSmurfperhaps?

Mind you, I'm using my GTX 970 now a days, but my 3770k ran the game just fine on live without any adjustments. Granted, I was still running Win7 and 16Gb RAM. I'm in the process of migrating everything to my Win10 SSD install on the rig, but a little config adjustment here and there and I could test in time.

City Council Number Six Posted September 16, 2020 City Council Posted September 16, 2020 @WanderingAries Thanks, if you do end up installing it and find that it doesn't work on Windows 10 with an 'OpenGL not found' error, shoot me a PM and I'll send you the details.

Yeah sure - just send me a PM - BTW: I've been successful in using a 64bit shim as mentioned by GM Tahquitz as well. Edited September 17, 2020 by Adurias
Matty091218 Posted October 6, 2021 Posted October 6, 2021 I just started getting this error today after being able to play just fine the day before. Any thoughts? Windows 10 64-bit Intel Core i5-5200U CPU @ 2.20GHz 4gb RAM Intel HD Graphics 5500 Nvidia GTX 900M
City Council Number Six Posted October 6, 2021 City Council Posted October 6, 2021 @Matty091218 Try rebooting. A couple of people on discord have had similar issues, only to discover that it worked after a reboot.

Matty091218 Posted October 6, 2021 Posted October 6, 2021 I also just tried the shim fix and no luck. Waaah Waah Waah lbvs. Maybe a good old fashioned uninstall and reinstall would work?
