  1. We should have, sure. But I have a few characters that have zero tailor credits.

  2. This used to happen to me a lot. Then I got the bright idea to change the mouse look to the middle mouse button.

    Now it looks like this in my keybind files:

    Code:
    MBUTTON "+mouse_look"
    SHIFT+MBUTTON "+camrotate"
    No problems since then.

    Yeah I thought it might be worthwhile to quote War Witch directly on the subject (from a massively.com interview: City of Heroes "Ask a Dev": Melissa Bianco Answers Your Questions by Dana Massey, 5 Oct 2007 10:55 am).
    Thanks for finding this interview. I remembered the why by not the who said it.

    Recently I went back to my first MMO, Dark Age of Camelot. I was tooling about with my incredibly slow run speed when something happened. I'm so used to environment changes meaning something that I was mildly disturbed before I remembered - it rains in Albion. Then I was okay. Wow, I kinda miss weather happening.

    I have to set aside my unnatural devotion to War Witch right now so I don't feel bad about disagreeing with her. We do have an overhead map so not being able to see far isn't the horror it can be in other games. And surely there's a darkness setting somewhere between sunshine and Dark Astoria metafog? Heck, it doesn't even need to be as dark as night - which is still bright enough to get around.

    However, I can absolutely appreciate the desire to make weather in Paragon mean something beyond just an aesthetic change. I would love to have weather changes have some impact on how some things work on the street. I can - and do - supplant my desire for weather with the knowledge that if it does get done in Paragon that it'll be something as cool and amazing as free flowing capes were. (If we can all remember our amazement then.)

    tl;dr version: Just my version of Wag of the Finger and a Tip of the Hat.

    Ah, my bad. It's been a while since I read it. Thanks for the clarification.

    And rereading it has certainly renewed all of my questions about Mr. Wilcox.

    The Fighting pool isn't necessary, MA/SR is a very synergistic set.

    I believe this is correct but I may double check it.

    From the comic, I believe it was Lady Grey's powers that we were seeing resurrect the PF.
  6. I couldn't favor external corporate sponsorship. Having more in-game logos available wouldn't be a bad thing.

    I figured as much. Still struck me as incidentally humorous. Imagine the superpowered forumdramaz if Statesman had joined the chorus of "zomg my forma name is _NA!!!!1onityhonda!" Typing on a tiny keyboard with his superfingers with as much iRage as the flimsy plastic could allow.
  8. What's funny to me is that it's labeled as Statesman_NA.

    As for the rest of it, wow; perspective much? I may have disagreed with Jack, even enough to leave the game over it - but dayum. Hate? Someone I don't really know doesn't qualify for that level of emotional investment.

    If only there was this emote in the game, it's the perfect response.

    No. You can still pyramid quotes.

    Been using that feature on other forums and I can't begin to describe how much of a pain it was to quote multiple posters before compared to using this simple little feature.

  14. There was a short time after one of the patches where the gate was open and allowed one to access an area outside the war wall and even under the map. I used to have screenshots of KR from a distance when I was out in the middle of nowhere.

    OK...how do you seperate chat tabs from the primary chat box? This has been driving me nuts for a while but I always forget to ask once I get to the boards.

    At the top of the chat window you see the 1 2 3 4. Opening any one of those presents a new window where you can create a tab (or multiple tabs) to monitor any chat or information channel you want.

    Post your GUI

    The standard view for all of my characters. Actual resolution is 1920x1200, as viewed on a 24" monitor. Some slight font tweaks (the hard way, thanks for the tweakCoH link). So very grateful for the window setting files; I used to do that manually on every character.
  17. I always thought it was in Founders, that tall building across from the tram. But the exploration badge (Foggy) states that it's for player's supergroups. All this time, so wrong.

    Wherever it is I bet the secret entrance is somewhere around M1's feet.
  18. You can bind keys to act as a click to Yes or No (accept or decline) to pop up boxes like that.

    I have mine bound to the + and - buttons on the numpad:

    * add "dialog_yes"
    * subtract "dialog_no"

    Son, we live in a world that has designs and those designs need to be dreamt up by men with flair. Who's gonna do it? You? He has a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Swan and curse the Mynx; you have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what he knows: that Jaye's designs, while unfathomable, probably saves lives and that Jaye's sexiness, while statuesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives.

    You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties you want him on that costume design, you need him on that costume design!

    He uses words like minion, love, ducky. He uses them as the backbone of a life trying to create something. You use them as a punchline. He has neither the time nor the inclination to explain himself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very design he provides and then questions the manner in which he provides it. I would rather you just said "thank you," and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest that you pick up a Wacom tablet and draw a costume. Either way, he don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to!

    You want answers?

    YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE SEXINESS!

  21. Please Preserve Princess Pain's Purity!

    My sweet and innocent FACE SMASHING sweety has worn a hole clean through her breetches! Such immodesty cannot be tolerated, even in the vile Rogue Isles!

    Visual evidence of the horror, HORROR I SAY!

    I hadn't noticed until recently that when performing a lunging melee attack (such as air superiority) the Lower Body > Shorts and Skirts > Shorts 1 present a clipping issue, showing what may or may not be worn on the character's skin.

    Please, Sexy Jay! You are our last hope!
  22. You can increase the size of the bubbles with <scale #> - I think. I know it works for binds I don't recall what freedoms one has editing demo files. (And I'm not sure what the size limit is off hand.)
