My icon has ["C:\Program Files (x86)\City of Heroes\CohUpdater.exe" -uiskin 0] as the target.
-uiskin 0 gives the blue CoH screen.
-uiskin 1 gives the red CoV screen.
-uiskin 2 gives the gold GR screen.
Another way of using the CoV screen is to use the shorter flag -cov -

Look on the bright side. At least it's not an Exploration badge that is only obtainable by making specific choices to get a specific mission map, and then having to open a secret door to get to the badge. lolQuote:Originally Posted by InsanityPeak
What badge is this and where do I get one ?!Actually, that was my first inspiration, but the closest thing we have to the exaggerated version I describe above is more like Jail Bird, for visiting the specific Jail Cell on the Villain Tutorial map.Quote:Originally Posted by Kheldarn
Sounds like Multidimentional... >.> <.<
I've seen it done both ways, depending on which server I am on at the time or who is hosting it.Quote:Originally Posted by Snow Globe
Any raid I've been to has started from the south side.
And that one generally needs a full team to help take the shields down. The amount of characters that could solo the Pylons is very small.
My point is that it's possible to walk to it if you have to by going to the other side. A vertical power isn't necessary. -
That trick works pretty much for any "rooted" power. Getting the timing just right is quite tricky though. It's much easier on the "ground" powers than the rest of them in general. Timing has to be perfect to bypass the rooting and animations... so much so that it happens more often by accident than it would on purpose. lol

My junk laptop did the same thing. It's graphics card was some cheap intel thing. Changing drivers did seem to fix it for a while, but it came back again. It currently works fine, but very slow and laggy if I don't turn all the options all the way down. lol
Your Laptop appears to have the Radeon HD 5650, so i don't know why it would have that kind of trouble, unless you just need to do a driver swap as well. -
Quote:Well you don't "have to", but you do need to make sure you have less than 5 Major Story Arcs open when you switch if you want to be able to start a new one on the other side. They are the ones marked with the blue bookmark. There does not seem to be a limit on Minor Arcs, the green ones, so don't focus on cleaning those up. Just look at the blue ones.Originally Posted by kendo
haven't gotten my hero all the way over to villain status yet but would like to clarify this to make sure I don't run into a similar problem. are you saying that we need to complete all story arcs on the hero side, not just have your mission list cleared? just to make things easier to track, I cleared my mission list and went to running just tip missions but I probably have a few story arcs that are partially done.
thanks
Again, you shouldn't need to clear them all, just make sure you have less than 5... unless you want to really be on the safe side and clear them completely. lol -

Either way, your point is made.

That doesn't count, and never has.

no problem with exploring places, my comment was that it should be possible to explore places without having to take certain travel powers. there should be a way to get to the locations different ways.
Look on the bright side. At least it's not an Exploration badge that is only obtainable by making specific choices to get a specific mission map, and then having to open a secret door to get to the badge. lol -
Have you used the [Coolant] on the Heroside Respec Trial's Reactor at all?

Combative healing allies in missions that you escort out of the mission can sometimes count for credit as well.

The lab maps are laggy? I didn't really play the Beta, so I missed the whole thing I guess. lol
I don't recall any crazy features on those maps, so I don't see why a good card would be required. I guess I'm missing something. -
Quote:What we meant was also check your contact list for any that display a Storybook, indicating that there is an active Arc. Icons with the Blue bookmark are Major Arcs. You are limited to how many you can have, which can prevent you from starting another one.Originally Posted by DeaconBlue
I appreciate all the advice. I currently have no missions at all, RWZ or otherwise, so that is not it. I am awaiting a reply from support.
-
Indeed. It was a quick and smooth run once again. Thanks to everybody involved! See you for the next one!

No worries man, I'm back on forums now, people should start accusing me of being the condescending guy any moment now.

"THIS" is wrong.
...
Master-Blade, your condescension is not appreciated.
If it's not working, then the only other things I can think of is you either have too many missions selected (allowed 7) or too many active Major story arcs (allowed 5). Unfortunately, if those happen to be from Heroside contacts, you'll have to become a full Hero again to complete those arcs and free up room to start another one.
I'm only trying to help. Honest. -

I do that as standard, it unfortunately has no effect on the store.
Eco.
Well here is the link to the US version:
CoH GR Complete Collection (item_id=209) [European version is 211]
For just the expansion, change the item_id in the URL to 205. Item Pack is 213.
If worse comes to worse, maybe you can wire some money to somebody you trust in the states to buy you a copy locally and e-mail you the code. lol
I hope you (and/or your friend) gets it worked out. -
What happens if you change the dropdown in the upper-right corner of the webpage from English(GB) to English(US)?

You need to choose GW as your patron before you can do her patron arc. Go talk to Arbiter Rein, he's the guy standing just outside the main room in Grandville. He'll have you read some plaques below statues of the patrons and then he'll allow you to make your choice, which introduces you to a patron as a contact.
The first Patron arcs are lvl 40-50. You cannot be too high to start them. -
[NPC] Cleaner: If RES.ATK(PRA) Then CWK.ATK(RES); If CWK.ATK(RES) Then RES = !ALV
The are so presumptuous. I love it!
On a side note, that one talked in NPC, not local. -

They still have a bunch of work to do though.

Quote:Geez.. don't you all know about the SAVE MORNA FIRST policy!? lolOriginally Posted by Luna de Nocturne
The only death was when the AV decided to kill Morna.
Glad it went well and you all had fun.

That contact in front of the tower is named Abriter Rein. Clicking on him will allow you to select your patron.
-
Look for the option for ToolTips and make sure they are enabled. I am pretty sure that setting is saved server-side on each toon, so I don't know why reinstalling would have reset it, but it's worth a shot.
Options:
General Tab
Miscellaneous Category
(ToolTips)
Then again, if you just created a new character on the new install, it might not have used your own personal default because you have not designated one yet. In this case, I would log into a character that is set up the way you want your general default to be, and do all the chatsave, wdwsave, optionsave, bindsave stuff to ensure new characters will start the way you want them to. -
It looks like you are all full up, but I should be around tonight in case a spot opens up for whatever reason.
Quote:I just want to point out that if you are hosting this from your SG base, the Vigilantes might not be able to enter. Also, characters still in a Hero group that are currently a Villain/Rogue sometimes have trouble getting the list to pop up at the base portal as well.Originally Posted by Mr E-Man
By request from the hero contingent currenly visiting the Rogue Isles...
Luckily, Silver Mantis is located in Sharkhead anyway, so there is always that other option just in case.
Good luck everybody!
