I'm not going to click on the link, because you sound a lot like I shouldn't. As for my gender, you couldn't be more further off. Hopefully you're just being weirdly sarcastic.

Im looking for the sound Domination makes when you use it.

i think you would just add bd to tthe name of the montreal font... look on myfonts.com for a list of all theversions of montreal demibold ;D

Well, your not notable. jack is notable, especialy in relation to his game and his character. your just....you. so probably not, sorry.

If you can, take a moment and expand the article on wikipedia, its sorely lacking in....anything.

I hope this means we can invent snowballs, rocks, vomit, and jingle jets!

I wonder if NCSoft will take legal action over the unauthorized use of CoH properties for a comercial product?

when you change the name, don't put in the .TFF cause its already a .TFF file and the game doesn't reconize mont_demibold.TFF. But it reconizes mont_demibold if its a .TFF file

get it o_0

just rename it mont_demibold

This is ONLY if you cannot see File Extensions in Windows Explorer. Worst feature of windows ever.

cool, tahoma works good for you then?

also, i suppose if your using windows xp and the Hide Extensions for Known Files is enabled, then yah, it would be just mont_demibold. if Hide Extensions for Known Files is off, then you need to make sure you keep the extension.

thats odd. the fonts folder is inside the data folder right? and double check that the file name is mont_demibold.TTF. Im suprised that it isnt working...

which steps did you follow? the font replacement stuff or the font alteration stuff? Also make sure you got the name exactly right including the case. the filename ends with uppercase .TTF, not lower. and all the folders should have lower case names as well.

Im not saying *everyone* who does it is unimaginitive, there are exceptions, but, for the most part, its people who wont accept someone else had their idea first that cause the annoyance in the first place

Like i said, verdana is kind ugly in-game. yoru best bet is to go with the second method since both the program and font out are available.

At no time are any alterations made to client exe's or pigg's

Since the built in font has identical lower case L's and upper case i's, it is possible for certain...unimaginative....people to mix I and l as needed to make it *look* like they have a certain name, when in fact they have another. Now there are two ways to fix this issue. The first and easiest one is to follow the Sound Silencing model and dump in a new font that will load in place of the old one. The font you choose is up to you, however for aesthetic reasons you should try and stay as close to the original as possible. For this example we will use a font with distinctly different I's and L's, the ever versatile tahoma, since everyone has this font (it comes with windows) its easy to do.

Go to your fonts folder, usualy C:\Windows\Fonts or C:\Winnt\Fonts and find the file "tahoma.TTF". Select the font then go to the Edit menu and hit Copy.

Now go to your game folder, such as C:\Program Files\City of Heroes. In here, go into the folder "data". if you dont have that folder, make it now. Go into that folder and then create a new folder called "fonts" (without the quotes). Right-Click on that folder and hit Paste.

Now go into the folder fonts you just made and right click on "tahoma.TTF" and hit rename. Change the name to "mont_demibold.TTF", sans quotes.

Now when you launch the game, the default interface font will be replaced with the font tahoma, making it much easier to tell those letters apart. Note that this only applies to the GUI. If you have a suggestion for a better font, let me know!.

The text over character heads will not change, thats a bold version of the same font and thus has a different name.

I realise this is a lot of work for such a small thing, but its one of those Quality of Life issues that the devs would *never* get to because they have a bazillion other things to do.

Now, if your feeling adventurous, there is another, superior way to deal with this issue. Rather than replacing one font with another, you can edit the font used in the game with a program like HighLogic Font Creator, which is available as a 30 day fully functional trial. Just open the original font Montreal DemiBold (Available Here[my googlefu is strong!]), mont_demibold.TTF, find the capital letter I, and add bars to the top and bottom, and merge the contours together. I wont go into a whole thing on how to do all that, since its pretty easy to figure out, just make sure you read through the built-in help a bit to get familiar with the programs workings. once you have changed the letter I in the font, save it and dump it in the same location as above.

I have also created an Example Image with window scaling at 150% so you can see how things look for me now. I hope this guide helps you out with this small QoL issue.

Wow, i can only wonder why this fellow here isnt already working for cryptic. At least, since the forums are covered by the EULA, they *can* use this idea if they want to

thankyou for the great guide, with this i can finaly make the Ice Armor stop poping (i think its water dripping, but CoH does something to make it very crackly.

I dont know what i would do with a respec. maybe shuffle a few slots around, but ive realy got all my powers nailed down perfect.

well this blows, im going to be doing a convention that weekend and probably wont have any time at all to play this. not one danged minute

My salvage collection is like souvineers. i save them all. ill give up extras, but never anything i only got one of.

Well, i guess that counts for a a few weeks of end game content eh?

If CoX ever gets a real physics system, not this ragdoll crap, put into it, then the ball would be possible. As it stands, CoX doesnt have physics except in a few places, like ragdoll (poor ragdoll, imho) and certain particle effects. Capes are probably physics, but then it might just be a loose collection of IK bones that dont respond to anything but each other.

Take the Source games. they all have full on Physics to do all kinds of neat stuff, but unless your multiplayer server has the Turbo Physics enabled, its all client side as well.

You can bet your but the flash doesnt have supression, he lapped the world over and over kick lex's butt on JLU.

The important thing to remember here, is that NCSoft has a marketing division. Who may be responsible for all the videos we see. Meaning that all the powers you think you saw in there, may be nothing more than fluff the movie makers put in, cuz it looked cool. it could very well be that the people who actualy made hte movie have never even played CoH.
