Astralock Posted November 2, 2022 Share Posted November 2, 2022 (edited) Metalios and Zed have released a new version of Mids' Reborn for Issue 27, Page Five: 3.4.7.4. Please note that only Windows 10 and 11 are officially supported. If you are not using 3.4.6, there are several steps that you need to do: 1. Uninstall and delete Mids' Reborn completely. Wipe the folder clean. 2. Download and install the .NET 6 desktop runtime. You can obtain it here. 3. The built-in Windows ZIP archive extractor sucks. If you do not already have an archive extractor program (WinZip, 7-Zip, WinRAR, PeaZip, etc.), installed, then I recommend downloading and installing PeaZip. It's free and open source software. You can obtain that here. 4. Download Mids' Reborn and extract it into its own folder, whereever you want to put Mids' Reborn. For example, I personally have it in C:\Loaded Camel\Mids Reborn\ You can download it here. 5. Open Windows Explorer, right click MidsReborn.exe, and go to the Compatibility tab. Click "Change high DPI settings" towards the bottom. Then follow the screenshot. Once done, click "OK." Enjoy. Known issues: Exporting builds to the Homecoming forums is borked. Until it is fixed, go to File > Export > Forum Export > Yes > Data Chunk, and select "Only export Data Chunk" This update contains most of the revamps for Masterminds that could be done but not the revamp of the pets' powers due to some limitations (e.g. critical hit chance increase for Ninjas) This is just a courtesy post for those not on the Mids' Reborn Discord server. You should join it here. Edited January 26, 2023 by Astralock Updated for the newest version of Mids' Reborn. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are going to need to do a new manual install no matter what. Not entirely. 3.4.6 has an updater that only works if you have no spaces in the folder name you have Mids' installed to. There was a fix for that uploaded to the Mids' Reborn Discord server, but people not on that Discord server probably don't have it, yeah. But doing a fresh manual install is probably a good idea anyhoo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dispari Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Oh yeah, all the changes look good at a glance. As you said not all the Mastermind changes are present; you can't slot the RES/DEF/heal sets in the upgrade powers for instance just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brasilgringo Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Discord channel invite doesn't work. Also new mids doesn't let me drag Slots to other powers? Am I missing something basic on this? I used to be able to drag (empty) slots between powers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanguinesun Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 There seems to also be an issue causing builds when you change things to globally cause the damage to jump up... each time you change. I sure would love for example to be doing a 1200dam cleave with just 5 slots io'd but yeah... that's not a thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zepp Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 I noticed that there is still an issue with stealth toggles still forcing de-toggle. (I can't check the math for having Superior Invisibility and Steamy Mist on simultaneously).

I brought it up, and here's Zed's reply: "Yeah this one is going to be very tricky if not impossible - unless we add new tricks. Mids has no notion of stack by key/group other than mutually exclusive groups, neither it can pick highest value in a group. See i wouldn't care if this was only stealth radius but it also affects defense..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I generally don't open it up, so I am behind on that discussion. 1 Archetype Concept Compilation -- Powerset Concept Compilations: Assault Melee -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Great Archetype Concept Battle: Final Round -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archetype Proposal Amalgamation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJDrakken Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Maybe updates changed something, I can't figure out. But we use to remove slots if misplaced, but now I can't get it work. I've tried all sorts of setups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astralock Posted November 20, 2022 Author Share Posted November 20, 2022 New version of Mids' Reborn is out, with over three dozen bug fixes. Click on "Help" > "Check for Updates" > "Just Update" Do that twice. The first time will update the application itself, and the second will update the database. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronze Ronin Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Tried to uninstall and install the newest version because my older version just bugged out. Now I get a Missing config file popup "Config file doesn't exist, generating a new one." I hit ok but then nothing happens but the popup goes away. Looking for help on this thanks.

Bronze Ronin Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 I got it to work, cleared everything again and tried and this time it was ok, must have got a bad file unpacked or something but works fine now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, for some reason the Mids' Reborn developers haven't been adding the newest version to the website lately, only their Discord server. That's why I made this thread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
