Completely updated Windows, video drivers, and turned off the NC Launcher. Still getting crashes in Atlas Park and such. I've also turned my settings on the Occlusion to low and such as directed. I'm still getting the memory crashes.

Hrm, alright. The new parts came with a reformat, I thought I grabbed all the updates (OR atleast, I trusted my friend to, since they were helping with that) I'll have to redouble on all of my Windows fixes.

I've turned off the NCsoft launcher settings, and the Occulsion ones as well!

Hi there,

I recently upgraded my PC, including the Motherboard/Processor/RAM/PSupply.

Everything else is running fine and dandy, but now I keep crashing on City of Heroes with the following errors such as 'Game Ran out of memory and must now exit.
[11:55:21 AM] Kelly Murray: ./piggs/stage3g.pigg: Failed memory allocation (zip'd size 917846, unzip'd size 1398491)
Read failed for file: texture_library/WORLD/City_Zones/Hero_Statues/Male/Male_Statue_Atlas_N.texture
-1'

Below is my Helper file, and I'll follow up with my HiJackThis.

My current main is a Sonic/Energy Defender. PvE On him is fun, and he's great for support. I'd like to get him a build kitted up for PvP to take my support to that as well. Sonic/Energy is there to stay, because it's also my most invested character.

The problem I'm having is that a lot of the PvP I'm experiencing is 1v1, so I'd like to see what I can do to cook up to help fight. In teamfights, I'm hoping my buffs will actually help.

I have access to both anc/Patron pools, and my main's current build has mace mastery. What are some things I should look into?

$90 Dollars worth of points and no wolf D:

Oh well. Got lots of other stuff though, which is neat.

I want the dog, though. >:C

I'm not spending any more for awhile, I already feel dumb for that much.

I have to vote for B. Have to.

It seems recently, whenever there is a new update/patch, I get an error message saying that files are missing or corrupt, and to run the repair tool.

I've ran it several times, but it still won't work and requires a reinstall.

Does anyone else know what could be causing this?

'The process cannot access the file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\NCsoft\City of Heroes\piggs\stage1b.pigg' because it is being used by another process.'

I did a search on the forums, but didn't turn up anything.

Is there an extended list or speculated abilities a Peacebringer/Warshade would be given in the lore? Does the host by relation become a partial energy being? My buddies and I assume such, since they -can- technically shapeshift with the manipulation.

The main questions rising up are: Surviving the vacuum of space, other cosmetic changes or manipulations

Whenever I log onto certain alts, or make new characters, my client chops horribly. Getting maybe one frame every three seconds. I've restarted my client in between character swaps, and I've toned down my graphics.

Does anyone else have this issue?

Rebooted, deleted files, repatched... still can't get on sometimes and I'm running it as admin. *Sigh*

Every time I try restarting my client, it keeps applying a patch. >:/

I'm having the same issue, myself.

Heya, when I was leveling up I realized I did things a little... wonky, so I decided to go to the trainer and use the second build that they offer at 10 to act kinda like a respec.

I'm high enough now to do a Terra Volta trial, and I was wondering: Does Terra volta effect both 'specs' or just the build I'm in at the time?
