Bowan Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 FYI update. For anyone who may be having this problem: I finally got this to work perfectly, after deleting, cleaning and reinstalling HC City of Heroes to the default directory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mack008 Posted September 8, 2023 Share Posted September 8, 2023 Here's mod I'd love: give me the ability to shrink the size of MM's Demons and Robots. I like both sets, but they take up a lot of visual space, especially on cave maps where they make it hard to see the fight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Healix Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Everything works great except for the Cimorora map. There is one badge that shows on the map but when I go there, it is in the water. Is there a separate download for this that I can install? The rest are all fine. Forever grateful to be back in my city! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds like you may still have data overrides in your client directory. When you launch the Mod Installer, do you see a warning stating that it found # files in your data directory?

lemming Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 Just noticed this: Three of the Glowie sound modification are listed as "Glowie - X" and and we have "Double Loud Glowie" and "Loud Glowie" Would be easier to find if they were all: Glowie - Annoyingly Loud Glowie - Double Loud Glowie - Loud Glowie - Music Box Glowie - Ping (v1) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starhammer Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 I wish I knew what I was doing wrong. I even reinstalled the game from scratch. Can't get this to work. 😞 Fortunately I was able to paste the old Data folder back in and at least get the outdated mods working again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Healix Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 What a wonderful addition this is to my game! I had the base portal beacon signs already installed from a while back, but the CMI updated them and now they all can be read. I LOVE being able to hear the glowies much better. (I like the Glowie - Double Loud the best.) It has a sort of bell-like tone, and I no longer have trouble hearing or finding them. I also love the more realistic flight sound. It is great that you can try different things and then uninstall them if you don't like them. This is such a quality addition to our wonderful game. 2 2 Forever grateful to be back in my city!

Then copy over the directories that have info you still want (accounts, architect, costumes, powercust, screenshots, settings for example) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
City Council Michiyo Posted October 2, 2023 Author City Council Share Posted October 2, 2023 A lot of times this comes up it's some strange permissions issue on the game folder. Half the folder is owned by one user, the other half by another. The support bundle will confirm what the issue is usually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwkwardGiraffe Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 (edited) I'd love to be able to diminish the visual effects of Blazing Aura; I'm not sure if this is doable or how it'd even be done.

Sunsteal Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 Apologies if I'm in the wrong place for help. I've installed the 'City mod installer' and when it runs I point it where I think I'm supposed to - C:\Games\Homecoming. This on its own does not crash the game and nor does installing 'Homecoming vidiotmaps' but as soon as I add the assestpath and run the game is just crashes with no error message but the choice to upload a data dump etc. I have Tequila and what may actually be the CoH install on my D drive - D:\CityOfHeroes I'm a little lost tbh so any help would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you add the assetpath in Tequila, you're telling your game to look in a folder that doesn't exist, because you've told the installer to put it's data in the wrong directory. I'd suggest totally deleting the installer, re-download, when you run it for the first time point it to D:\CityOfHeroes, then install Vidiots.

cohRock Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 I am reinstalling Modder on a new computer after over a year of not playing. It installed and sort of ran yesterday -- updating vidiotmaps was more complicated than I remembered, and something came up, so I didn't finish. This morning I was planning on fighting through it, but now Modder won't start properly. It keeps giving one exception notice after the other. The first of MANY problems even in the first notice begins: Quote Erorro in application: System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error (530) Not logged in at System.Net.FtpWebRequest.RequestCallback(Object obj) That notice spans about 4 inches. When I acknowledge, another notice, then another, etc. The chain eventually stops (except one time when I had to use Task Manager to kill it). I assume there is a configuration problem, but if so I don't know why it ran yesterday. I believe my CoH Root Directory is proper: * C:\games\coh\Homecoming The executable 'launcher.exe' is two levels below that. Oh, here is image of the first error notice. -- Rock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't my tool, this is the old mod installer by PK, he has left the community and took his site down which is why you're getting the errors you are. You'll need to download my mod installer linked in the original post, follow the install instructions for the launcher you use (Tequila / HC Launcher), and remove / rename your existing Data folder.

Healix Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 The City Mod Installer is really such a great tool! I found a few game changers for me that were wonderful are I can hear the glowies way better..the sound is louder, but has a pleasant bell sound instead of a sonic buzz. (Double Loud Glowie} Dulling the annoying sound from hitting a power key when it is recharging. (Powers Recharging Less Annoying SFX Sound) Portal at the Portal Corps are not loud and headache inducing anymore (Portal Corpse Quieter Portals SFX Sound) Improved flying sound (Flight Realistic SFX Mod) readable signs for the base portals (Base TP Beacon Labels - Issue 27) assorted other mods that quiet things like pulsing quills, Arctic-Air, hasten pop-bang, lightning field, etc. Forever grateful to be back in my city!

Marshal_General Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 My hard drive crashed so I am in the middle of trying to remember everything I had. I downloaded the Lore Pet Summoning popmenu by psyheal, but the blurb on it does not mention the command and since they are pigg files, I can't go into it and look. Anyone know what the proper command format for this one is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AspieAnarchy Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 (edited) So. I just tried installing this, and am not having much success; I have no self-confidence that I know what I'm doing, and I am terrified I will FUBAR everything if I keep trying to do it on my own. Could someone please walk me through this? So far, I've downloaded the thing from OP, Unzipped it to its own subfolder in my Downloads folder, tried to run COHModdingTool.exe, and...that's where I'm now stuck, as it has ceased to resemble what OP's instructions say ought to happen. Edited December 4, 2023 by AspieAnarchy Quote ...If you're not willing to risk your life or what you hold dear to accomplish your goal, then maybe you should re-think what you really want.

People will do a lot to avoid fear, even become the monsters they're afraid of. - Crimson Quote The game lags because you touch yourself at night - @Zem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
