Important note: The SET BONUS of a purple IO will always function. The actual enhancement % provided by the IO will be reduced just like any other IO.

Well, I tried some of this this morning. Tossing the preferences folder and rebooting was annoying, but worked. For two logins. Then it showed up again. But rebooting my machine fixed it again. So now I'm really confused. Seems to be an on-again-off-again thing rather than constant.

Also, the corrupted graphics after zoning will always use something from the tile set used on the current map. So if I enter a mission, I get pieces from the mission. when I used my Pocket D porter my neck piece turned into a giant floor tile and my head looked like a table with two benches and some drinks on it.

When I changed costumes, the pieces somewhat re-randomized (to a different table and the tikibar wall tile instead of tikibar floor tile). I tried editing the costume, but that didn't fix it. Did give me a chance to fix my corrupted by i17 powerset customization though. So wasn't a total bust.

I'll mess with it some more tonight. thanks for the suggestions.

Still looking for a way to find the screenshots searching for photos by date if anyone knows how. Or if anyone knows the default screenshot naming conventions I can search on part of a name.

Been handling it fine up until two days ago. Even handled the ultramode patch fine, though I have to turn most settings down.

I didn't say it was useless. I did say it is technically beyond my skill set however.

If your test server worked, that would point to an issue with your files you downloaded, so it would mean reinstalling the files again to get it to work. Other than game files the only logical thing to blame would be 3d card drivers. After reading your post though you say you want this bug fixed but you seem to be willing to do very little about it. No screenshots and not willing to try things mentioned, how can people help if your not willing to help yourself?

The problem is I'm almost totally useless on a Mac. Half of the tutorials and walkthroughs I try I fail. Not just here, anywhere. Macs confuse me to no end, and I have terrible luck with them. I managed to brick my only laptop a few years back. Whatever I did to it I have no idea, had to have the harddrive replaced and OS reinstalled from scratch to get it working again. I'm out of warranty on my current computer and if I hurt it, I'm S.O.L. The minute instructions involve "open file and remove (or edit) x, y, z" I get really uncomfortable.

I did actually try to get test running, but it didn't work and I got frustrated. I have tried to follow the instructions to get at screenshots, but it didn't work and I got frustrated. Since I was messing with the game files, and near other applications, I got nervous. If I've tried and failed before, I'm generally not willing to try the same thing again, and I'm not keen to experiment because that has gone horribly awry in the past.

Someone suggested I search on recent images, I asked how to do that. the only search I know of is to put a word in the question box in the top of a folder and hit enter. I have no idea how to search for a photo. I'm glad to give it a shot, but I don't know how to do it. Here is the only way I can search:
Search Example I don't see any options for images and I have no idea what the CoH naming conventions are so no clue how to search by filename.

I did, I think, take some screenshots. Specifically I hit printscreen and the game slowed for a moment so I think I have them. I'd be glad to post them using the imageshack link kindly provided above.

On drivers, I have a 2007 iMac with an ATI Radeon HD2600. Drivers haven't changed in a while. I went to their website to see if I needed a new driver not long ago and was told that my OS updates handle it. Anything else I can try on this front?

I don't do test. First, I play so rarely I don't want to waste the progress. Second, Instructions for it confused the hell out of me. If all I needed to do was select it from the server list, fine. But until that day, test doesn't exist.

I only know how to search by file name. How do I search by type and changed/added?

Hmm, ok good to know.

It's just a shame that so many traps have to be on the ground so you can't "hover trap" like you can hover blast.

Yup, I know what it does, and I know it's useful and important. I just forget it exists and that I have it. I rarely use buildup on my scrappers and blasters, I rarely use domination on my doms, etc. I click my attacks and debuffs, remembering to click anything else is very iffy.



On a mac, so the c:... doesn't help and I have no idea what the equivalent is or if text file binds even work.

By "across the pool" it's right near the NPC named Pilgrim.

That's a pretty decent copy! Nice work. She'd look a little silly bald, but it works ok for the guys. =)

Not really, they also have specific power lists. Defining them as just their form is like saying Synapse is a blaster and making a synapse-like character all you need is to be a blaster, go ahead and pick ice/devices. It's missing the whole point of the exercise.

It does, but that's far less than a full build, that's why I was asking if anyone has put together a build that apes them.

I'm on a mac can you post that long form?

Thanks for the advice on infrigidate.

Power Build up is just another clicky like aim that I'll forget to use. Let me put it this way, I have three doms and on none of them do I use domination during every mission. Aim and powerbuild up? compared to domination what chance do they have to be remembered. Hell the only reason haste works is because it's on autofire.

On my cold/ice defender and plant/ice dom I loathe the animation time of frost breath and being rooted for it accounts for over 90% of the times I go down.

On my melee types I've never been afraid of slow attacks. But they annoy me very commonly. For instance, I can barely stand to play broadsword. And I'd dearly love to have an axe character, but I've never been able to get one of any AT past elvel 6 or 7 without deleting them the attacks are just soooooooooooooo slloooooooooooooooooowwwwwww.

On my dark/dark stalker, I will use shadow maul when I need some time for other attacks to recharge. I don't like it, and I don't like being rooted for it (and I NEVER manage to get more than one enemy with it). But I like having Oblit in it, so I haven't traded it out for something else. But I really do wish there was a faster option. and it is used only slightly more often than brawl.

Then again, I guess all sets can't be as fast as claws or fire as much as I'd like them to. hehe.

Edit: Also keep in mind if you team, any attack that takes more than 2 seconds is quite likely to not land on a living enemy. that's really my biggest gripe about broadsword. on teams more than 33% of my attacks do no damage because someone kills the guy first. Parry and hack are my only realy "useful" attacks.

Sweet. I'll go check how much longer I gotta wait. I think the only ones I have already are the greek letters.

Edit: 5 months to go. Not so shabby considering about half that time will be gone by the time GR comes out.

Thank you for the heads up on that!

But is that measuring the accuracy of the Acid Mortar's own attacks or the summoning power of creating the pet? For instance, fluffy (Dark Servant) says accuracy 2.0 but that it simply the accuracy the /Dark or Dark/ Player has to have Fluffy appear EXACTLY where we want him to. Fluffy himself has 1.0 on all his attacks.

What is the accuracy of the Acid Mortar's attack power, not the accuracy of the summon?
