Still kind of amazed by how Mystic Flight, all on its own, so vastly exceeds the Fly speed cap even when not slotting for Fly speed inside the planner.

 

 

According to the mouse hover tooltip:

Base Flight speed: 21.5 mph

This has been capped at the maximum in-game speed.

Uncapped speed: 164.6 mph

 

I figure there's something wonky (that's the correct technical term, by the way) for how that formula is computing things inside the build planner.

Oh and I'm still stuck using v2.6.0.1 due to a lack of a .net 2.0 compatible upgrade path for the planner.

There is a macOS option, already been tested. The OP has been edited with the requirements.

Minor bug in 2.6.0.4 (DB 19.0921):

Mastermind Mace Mastery isn't requiring one of the first two powers before you can choose the third/fourth.

Thanks for the heads up, I'll work on getting a DB patch that includes it

Building a Fire/Kin Corruptor, with Flame Mastery.  Putting ATO's in Greater Fire Sword, it uses Brute ATOs.

Thanks for the report, there is now a Database update in the OP with instructions on how to install it.

[Caulderone]

The "Accolades" button is not behaving as an on/off toggle any more.  I have to deselect and reselect any one accolade to get their numbers to show up in View Totals.

[Metalios]

This was a design change, patch notes in our Discord.

Yes, but now the values don't apply when you open a build unless you deselect any one accolade and reselect it.  That seems a bit odd to me as intended behavior.

[Metalios]

That appears to be an unintended behavior in the change. I'll look into that

[Warlawk]

So it looks like we now have the option to toggle on Protector Bots and see the effect their defense buff would have on the MM, which is very cool. Unfortunately, I don't think that the one probot bubble will actually give me 40% defense in game.

Also, probots are still not allowed to slot defense set IOs which they can in game.

[Metalios]

I will get this added in the next patch, sorry about that.

Latest update has broken the program.
Ran the Check for Updates and applied the patch to 2604.
Then grabbed the DB files as per the home page and extracted them on top of my install files.
Launch Mids Reborn and nothing happens.

HELP

 

 

[Metalios]

Please uninstall and reinstall, the setup installer has been updated to not need the DB update. I will be pushing out a fix for the DB update later tonight.

Great.

Now I just need a way to install all of this stuff that doesn't require going to broken links ...

[metacore]

This worked thanks heaps!!!!!

For everyone else:
Removed Mids Reborn via Add/Remove Programs

Re-downloaded and ran the installer from the first page of this topic.

Viola.

PS: I like the new colour scheme

[PaxArcana]

Realized I was still using Pines 2.2, so I uninstalled and came here to get the new program.

 

But ... I can't use the Windows Self-Installer link, because AVG throws a fit when I try ...!  (See image below.)

 

Help?  Someone?

EDIT: I was able to go around to the side entrance, downloading an older version and using the internal Update.  But someone still needs to look into why the self-install URL has been blacklisted by AVG.

I don't use AVG myself, but it looks like it just doesn't like the midsreborn.com domain name.

 

Follow the instructions here and add http://midsreborn.com/* and https://midsreborn.com/* to the exception list.

? URL.Blacklist? This has to be a false positive. I will reach out to AVG again.

[Impervium Scion]

Yeah, I get the same from Avast and McAfee.

Also it seems like the windows installer site is dead? Or at least it says "This site can't be reached."

Sounds like you or your ISP may be having DNS issues. I am able to reach to reach the download from both my home and work PC's as well as my phone all running on different networks. Feel free to reach out to me on Discord.

Teamwork > Fortunata Teamwork > Fortunata Mind Link is incorrectly flagged in the database as having Recharge Enhancement disabled. This is incorrect. It is correctly flagged as not accepting the slotting of Recharge enhancements. But in 2.6.0.4 right now, Mind Link shows no benefit from local or global recharge values, which is not how the power behaves in the game, and not how previous Mids versions displayed the power.

 

So, despite having 62.5% global recharge and 73.78% local recharge from a full 50 set of Reactive Defenses, Mind Link is showing a recharge of 300 seconds, off a default value of 300 seconds.

 

If this seems confusing, the power does not accept recharge enhancements, like recharge SOs or generic recharge IOs. It does accept defense sets (and HOs), and any recharge enhancement that comes from that set or HO will apply to the recharge of the power.

Already being fixed scrap, that was not meant to be there.

I recently downloaded 2.6.0.4.

 

I've always been able to change base to-hit to represent fighting +3s by going to Options > Exemping & Base Values and typing 48 into the "Base ToHit" box.  Then I'd type ok and be done

 

When I do that now I get a message "Incorrect amount of stats selected, please go back and make sure you have 3 to 6 stats selected".

 

I checked 4 random items on the Discord page and it ended up saving.  

 

Just letting you know as I'm not sure if it's intended to require the extra actions just to change the one value.

It looks like that was fixed in 2.6.0.5.

Hmm, when is the last time you updated Defender definitions ie. Windows Updates?
