DreamingLove Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 (edited) Ah, okay I figured it out. Thanks! Is there a way to zoom in and make the UI bigger?

Nothing I have tried has worked Hero Designer v.2.6.0.7 (Database Issue: 26, Version: 20.2605) As for the .Net Framework, I tried to find where that is located, and couldn't directly read it, so can't confirm what version I'm running. Is there a difference between Windows 8 and Windows 8.1, I wonder, such that 4.7.2 will install on the latter but not the former? Do you know how I might determine what version I have? I can relate that Mids seem to be working fine for me. I even have the latest update that shows me Electrical Affinity as a powerset choice. Edited to add: Hmmmm. Checking HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Full on my Windows 8.1 PC, I determine that the Release entry contains, under Data (in part): 528049. For Windows 10 (10 May 2019 update), the number would be 528040, indicating .Net Framework 4.8. For all other OS, the number is 528049. Unless I really munked up on following the instructions I found on determining my version, I have .Net Framework 4.8. ...I'm pretty sure. 🤔 Edited April 5, 2020 by tripthicket Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperPlyx Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 (edited) @tripthicket Thanks for the reply,looking in registry on my pc it seems I only have .Net Framework version 4.0.....hmm,I wonder if I can try getting the versions one at a time till I get to 4.7 Edit: I was wrong I had version 4.5.1 installed. I was able to update it to 4.6.2 but when I went to install 4.7.1 I get the error ".Net Framework 4.7 is not supported on this operating system" Edited April 5, 2020 by SuperPlyx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to read sometimes with everything small on the left Unfortunately not at the moment, no. The program was built for resolutions that rarely went past 1280x1024, so widescreen is something foreign to it. As it is I believe the fact that it can display relatively correctly at all is due to recent efforts? Right now the only current author of Mids who's periodically around is Pine, and from what I understand he's more of a database person than a code person. MRBU's discussed the possibility of some UI changes but we haven't set anything in stone yet. We were just kinda tossing ideas.

Papaschtroumpf Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 For some reason today Mid's is not letting me change the Ancillary power pool after I open a build, even if I de-select all the powres from that pool. What am I missing? I'm pretty sure it ussd to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobRauff Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Sorry all if this has been answered, but I am trying to run this on a MacBook Pro and I am having some troubles. After following all steps on this thread these are the errors I am getting in this order After these errors my screen looks like this: I have followed all the steps multiple time. I have uninstalled everything, down to home-brew and reinstalled to no avail. I apologize if this has been answered already. Here are the specs for my computer: Macbook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014) macOS: Mojave v 10.14.6 Processor: 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7 Memory: 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Graphics: Intel Iris Pro 1536 MB I have had problems with my Intel Iris before, so this is my guess, I just have no idea what to do about it. Thanks for the help in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, if no one else chimes in here, you may need to try out making contact on the Discord linked in the first post. Lots of folks have had issues getting it to work right on Mac.

Caulderone Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 That looks like a permissions error to me. Uninstall the program. Reinstall it to a different location. For example, make a Games folder on your C drive, then install it there instead. That's my best guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cshadow133 Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Greetings everyone, How are we to update Mids Reborn? I do the 'Options -> Check for Updates' but it comes back negative. Yet the version I am on is Database Issue 26, Version: 19.1021. I see someone a few posts up that has a later version. I am wondering how long it takes it to be updated from a new issue or page coming out? I would like to see the stuff and slot up a toon for the new Electricity Affinity. Can someone walk me through the update if it is different than just checking for updates? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lodestar_1977 Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Such a basic question. First time using this. If I add slots to a power, then change my mind. How do I undo the slots? Also... yes the updated version on the other thread. I don't know if there is a full updated version to download. As I simply can not get my head around how to update it with the patches.
