ShardWarrior Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 (edited) Hello all, First, a quick bit of info - since the game has been back, I had been wanting to do something for the community as a thank you to all the wonderful players I have encountered while running about in Paragon City and the Rogue Isles. Costume contests are fun, but I wanted to do something more tangible and in a sense, more permanent - something functional and fun. With that, I am happy to announce the Torchbearer Community Base is now open! Here you can find all the features needed - teleport points to all locations, costuming, crafting, leveling and enhancement store contacts, meeting room, bistro and bar/lounge and open area parks and playgrounds when you just want to hang out after a tough day being a hero or villain! This is for all of you, so please enjoy it and help pass the word around. Feel free to use it for getting around the city, hanging out, RPing, crafting or even costume contests! A big thank you to all who have made the return of City of Heroes a truly special experience. Torchbearer Community Base - passcode TORCHCS-5949 You can also create a macro button in your power tray that will teleport you to the base from any location by typing the following into the chat: /macro TBCB enterbasefrompasscode TORCHCS-5949 Please share the code and enjoy! More pics here in the gallery. Edited August 26, 2019 by ShardWarrior 6 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ventriloquist Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 With no cast time or cooldown, either. Basically obviates the actual temp power(s). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cix Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I stopped by earlier today. It's beautiful! Thank you so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaasha Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 The community base is awesome. Shard is a very talented base designer and I'm very glad to be able to enjoy the fruits of their work! If you haven't checked out the base, do so. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sura Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 Been using this a bunch, thanks so much! It's a gorgeous base; perhaps a little intimidating when you first zone in but I've been able to find everything I've been looking for quickly and efficiently. Well done!

Robotech_Master Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 It's a very nice base--though I find that if I just want to get from place to place quickly, the teleporters are easier to get to in the WARPZONE-4141 base. If you liked what I had to say, please check out my City of Heroes guides! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShardWarrior Posted August 15, 2019 Author Share Posted August 15, 2019 You're very welcome all. Glad you are enjoying it! Feel free to share the code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigrx Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 And if you want to use a icon for the teleportation you can use the command /macro_image "Teleportation_Teleport" "TBCB" "enterbasefrompasscode TORCHCS-5949" thus giving you the image of a teleport unless of course it is of no help to you When I am good I am very good, when I am bad I am better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigrx Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Altho I would like to know if there is a slash command to transport to your own base if your base doesn't have a passcode setup When I am good I am very good, when I am bad I am better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShardWarrior Posted August 26, 2019 Author Share Posted August 26, 2019 (edited) So apparently the macro to port directly to bases is an "exploit" and is going to get removed. I am assuming pass codes will still work. Just FYI. 😧 Edited August 26, 2019 by ShardWarrior 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tahliah Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 This was one of, if not the, first bases I ever visited on HC, and I absolutely adore it! It's not only absolutely gorgeous but is truly functional and visitor-friendly. I have a macro for it in my main travel tray (even though I have a small functional base on Torchbearer and don't NEED the porters in TBCB :P). How did you get the walls and grass to not flicker? I have a horrible time with flickering grass in my base and can't seem to fix it without leaving gaps between the grass sections, which looks awful so I went with the flickering. Forget walls, they are all aflicker and it really bugs me when I'm swimming in my walled shark pool. Heh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grumps Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 I love this base thank you for sharing and I admit along with Dacy's building videos your base has inspired me to have a go. I do have a question, when you go into your building and look up you can see the ceiling tiles and glass roof, when I place surfaces or glass panels and look up from the inside they are invisible, can you tell me what I am missing? I have tried all kinds, placed pillars etc, I can see the pillar and from outside looking down I can see the surface, but inside looking up it is invisible. Many thanks and hope you can tell me what I am doing wrong:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried all kinds, placed pillars etc, I can see the pillar and from outside looking down I can see the surface, but inside looking up it is invisible. Very simple trick - there are two glass surfaces; one stacked on top of the other. One is flipped over so when you look at it from below, that's why you see the glass. Glad you like it and good luck with building your base! 😀 Be sure to post some screen shots of it when you finish over in the base building threads. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fan Mail Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Had a chance to check out your base work. Very impressive. Question. I was looking for a portal to Echo: Galaxy City and couldn't find it in the base. Did I simply miss it or did you not put it in there on purpose? I ended asking the help channel and was guided to Ouroborus so I got what was needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll double check that Echo GC is there tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
