    At any rate, if you're still having the issue try sending a support request to help.ncsoft.com so they can diagnose the issue.
    No, i had the pre-download patch as well. That patch went fine, as far as I could tell.

    Ultimately, since i was getting errors of the PIGG files being unable to delete, I went into the program and manually throwing out the PIGG files, just leaving the folder they were in (named piggs). The updater then ran fine, recreating the PIGG files.

    Not exactly what you want to do for an update, going into the program and manually manipulating stuff, but it got the job done. So it seems all is well in this Mac-land.

    Updater - Warning

    POST-ACTION

    I get to 35.8 M of the 850 M update and then a window pops up saying:

    Updater - Warning

    Can't delete file c:\coh/piggs/bin.pigg some other program has it open! Aborting.

    It then quits CoH. Needless to say, it does not do the update, nor lets me get on CoH. What to do? Should I go into the CoH package and delete that file manually?

    Anyone else having this issue? What do we do?

    Assertion Failure

    POST-ACTION

    This developed last night: whenever I send or receive a Tell, my client goes black and a window pops up that says "Assertion Failure" and shuts down the client.

    No other chat channel does this. No other action seems to cause an assertion failure either. It only happens when I send, or receive, a Tell.

    Needless to say, I can't function very well with this kind of error. Random people who, to my annoyance, asking me if I want to join a team or TF, my client craps out.

    Any fixes? Any advice? I tired removing Tells from the tabs I am viewing, but it did not help. It seems the act of receiving the Tell, wether I can view it or not, causes the crash.

    For some reason, after this afternoon's (8/5/10) shut down, if I send or recieve a Tell, the client pops up a window that says "Assertion Failure" and shuts down. None of my other chat channels seem to do this, only Tells.

    Obviously, not being able to send or recieve Tells suck. But to have them "crash" the client is even worse! Need help here.

    Wow, I think Clown of Cthulhu actually intimidates me. I'd probably give him my wallet and try to flee.

    Name: Entropy Legion

    Currently Recruiting: always looking for people to join the Legion

    RP Level: RP-friendly, RP-intensive, 100% IC spatial, /sg IC and OOC mix. Any OOC is with the typical (( )) chat rule.

    PvP Level: Casual, we do schedule occasional RPvP (PvP in a RP context and decorum) Patrols. But PvP is a very minor, to non-existant, element in Entropy Legion

    Theme/Concept: Entropy Legion is a silver-age style group of villains bent on the usual "conquer the world" or "the greatest heist" concept. We are a lot like the Legion of Doom, in where one member will come up with a Plot (created in AE) and the rest of the Legion will then help that Plot in order to have the Legion be victorious.

    Of course, being the people that villains usually are, we mess up and are a bit screwed up. We are enjoying the RP of what it would be like if severely quirky and dysfunctional people were stuck in a room together.

    The Entropy Legion is also under certain pressures from outside the group. They need to fight back various elements such as Arachnos, Longbow agents, and every thug in the Isles that thinks they are better than the Legion. The main pressure is from the Legions "sponsor", the Union of Dire Ambition. Radium Blight, in a desperate move to consolidate his power with the group, arranged membership with the Union. Now the Legion answers to the Union in exchange for financial backing, security forces, a good health and dental, a 401k plan....*sigh* Many of the Legion are not happy with having the Union "calling the shots" and Radium Blight is unhappy with the amount of paperwork associated with being in the Union. Many of the Legion members are starting to plot against Radium Blight, as he is plotting to neutralize them.



    Activity: The Legion more EST biased, but RP and member interaction is at any time of day, any day of the week. We have regular scheduled events, with Wed being our main RP night (called "Rogue Night Out") and Monday being more of Infamy grind style missions, but in RP.

    Requirements for Membership: out-of-game communication on guild forums (please also list URL forums if different from website), since we are an RP group, we try to do in-game interviews

    Leadership: Radium Blight is the current sitting leader (Arch-Villain), with Dark Lies Made Real, Aeshara, and Pyro Jaw being the current "officers" of the Legion

    In-Game Contact(s): @davpa is for Radium Blight

    Out-of-Game Contact(s): Contact in this forum under Davpa_CoX for more info

    Other Details: we are still a relatively new group, only have been active for a few months now. We are still building up our Hideout, so all of our Prestige has gone into base construction. We like to think of ourselves as a fun group that has a good "family" core of players that are always looking out for each other. We play Red and Blue side together and support each other with story ideas, RP interaction, and just a good laugh or two.
