  1. Absolutely wonderful! (I teared up a bit. Don't tell anyone )
  2. Ok, so how do I get in the game? When I click on the Launcher it starts to update, then it asks about installing Pando. I click cancel and the launcher gives me an error message, then quits.

    Error Message:
    An error occurred while updating the NCsoft Launcher.
    If you continue to see errors, try restarting your computer.
    If that does not solve the problem, you may need to reinstall the launcher.

    Error code 69

    Details:
    Error Code: 69 (FileGroupApplicationErrorRollbackSucceeded):
    Errors occurred while applying the patch,
    but the patch was successfully rolled back.
    The patch application errors are as follows:
    Error Code: 30 (FileLocked):
    File is locked and cannot be modified: 'C:\program files\ncsoft\launcher\NC.Logging.dll'.
    Please shut down all applications before trying again. If the message persists, try rebooting your computer.

    Game off center?

    Or No I don't. It's doing it again!!!

    This is my desktop with both monitors.
    On the left is my 15" Dell monitor. It is set at maximum settings of 1480 x 900

    On the right, with all the icons and the COHLauncer is my LCD TV. It is set at 1680 X 900. Not the size of the icons here.

    This is my two monitors with COH running. Note the size of the icons now.
    Also, note that I can not get into the game. I have -fullscreen -screen 800 600 in the advanced properties. In the regedit, fullscreen is 1, x is 800 and y is 600

    I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the game. Anything else?
  4. Hi all,

    I couldn't find anything here or on the support pages about the subscription plans. I am currently on a 6 months plan that will renew next month. I can't remember how much that will be. I have been thinking about doing a 1 year plan, but, again, I don't know the cost. Can someone point me in the right direction?

    Thank you,

    Game off center?

    Ok, I tried all those suggestions and its still off center. *bangs head*

    When it launches it makes the desktop and icons super large and is still off center. I even disabled the second monitor in hopes to get it into windowed mode and no such luck.

    Any other ideas? I'm all ears.

It likely also does it if you set it to use a Custom Text Size in Windows 7 (possibly also available in Vista) if it is a large number close to or larger than Large Fonts (150%).

    Set Windows back to use Normal Fonts (or Small Fonts) and it should resolve the problems.
    I did go to large fonts, just the other day. I would have never though to check this. If this is it, my face will be red from the mega-facepalm.

    Thanks.

    Game off center?

    I have 2 monitors actually. I did follow your instructions. It didn't run in widows mode though. Still the same off centeredness. I can enter my pw but I can't get past the TOS. I was at one time able to just hit Enter, Enter and get through, but it doesn't let me do that anymore.


    Also, I was wondering if I needed more RAM. I will look into it.

    Thanks, guys. If you have any more ideas, I'll take them.

    Game off center?

    For some reason, when I go to play. The game is loading off the screen. I haven't changed any settings, as far as I know. Here are my COH Helper and Hi-jack this. Please help.

    I know how you feel. Hope it worked out. I hate having to light a fire under my Dr office to get a script called in.

  11. I'm sure this has been brought up before. But I'm bringing it up again.

    Fog of war just needs to go. Why?

    What's the point of it?

    What kind of superheroes with magic powers, state of the art technology, etc, etc, can't read a damn map? Will our contacts really send us to a neighborhood we've never been to with out an accurate as possible map?

    Also, it's broken most of the time anyway.

    I'm sure there are more reasons to see it go and I'm sure there are reasons to keep it (I can't think of any), but just my opinion and suggestion.

  12. You could also just team with someone who all ready has the powerset and see it in action. Yes, I know it's not the same as playing it, but it still gives you an idea of what it's like.

    I'd love to see a system in which the game rewards you for street sweeping beyond the usual inf/insp/recipe drops.

    Perhaps Heroes and Villains can save/shakedown civilians and with each rescue/shakedown earn progress towards an ambush by X villain group containing a named boss. Each time you you defeat the boss/ambush it nets you a reward merit.
    That was pretty much what I was thinking.

    Ok, the only thing I can see is the misspelling of Mu. What am I missing?

    I think it just ads another facet to the game. Saving people on the street is a staple of superheroes. As is mugging them.
  17. Sorry if this has been mentioned before, I did a search and didn't find anything.


    The other day, I was looking at my badges and found that I was one Embalmed away from the Gravedigger badge. This character was level 40, so I figured it wouldn't be a problem.

    Well, it took a couple of hours just to find an Embalmed! While I contintued to defeat low level Vahzilok, I had an idea.

    A system that only works when outside of mission, in the city itself. After your hero (or villian) has defeated so many of a certain group, that group has it in for you and they come after you. In the form of an ambush, naturally.

    Now, I would make this so that, say a level 50, can't defeat X amount of Nemesis and then go to Atlas and create a high level ambush that could be used to harass lowbies, etc. Though the attack can wait until that character returns to the zone, that he first triggered the attack.

    I know street sweeping isn't that popular. Though, I do enjoy doing it from time to time. In fact, I have one character that does not do any missions at all, but rescues purse snatching and mugging victims, etc. This is just a basic idea, just some way to spice up street sweeping, kind of getting back to the basics of being a hero.

    For villain side, I think, villains should be able to mug and purse snatch, then have a mob of civillians after him (pitchforks and torches, ftw!), as well as defeating the other villian groups that hang about (and get in the way of your schemes)

    Anyway, that's my idea, simple as it is.

    Thanks.
  18. I'm just looking forward to someone making the smallest character possible with the largest weapon possible.

    I might have to do it myself, just because.

    Love is out there. And City of Heroes can help you find it. And immobilize and confuse it. And Assassin's Strike it if it gets too needy.

    Love this! You win!
