    Check the list in the OP - there are still some spots open - sign-up!

    Also, we can still use a couple of people for the Justin Augustine TF tonight - we need 8 people to start up!

    Another thing you can try (although not ideal) is to increase the size of your page file & make it a static amount.

    Assuming you are running XP, go to: your Control Panel - select System - then click the Advanced tab - and click the Settings button under Performance - click the Advanced Tab - then click the Change button under Virtual Memory - click the Custom Size radio button and enter 2048 in both the Initial & Maximum size - click apply, then ok, ok, ok & restart your comp when you are prompted.

    This will only help a tiny bit, but it is better than nothing.

    Also, I've found that running CoH in Safe Mode is very slow, you would do better by taking the steps that Luna has suggested as far as the ingame settings go.
  6. It was a really good run last night - lots of damage, buffs & debuffs going around with so many veats.

    I have never seen the Eye drop as fast as it did last night.

    The Team:

    Neon Widow
    Stalker Hunter T
    LadyNocturne
    Ewing.
    Hatake Asuna
    Painberry
    Dr Gears
    Dr Awe

    We pretty much fought through everything & still finished in 1 hr 10 mins - with 2 deaths (I know one occurred on one of the hunt missions, not sure when/where the second happened).

    After we completed the SF, we fought through a few more rooms/halls of coralax since a couple of us were about to level again.


    Operative Renault SF: 3/3/2010

    Thanks for joining everyone - it was quite a lot of fun & I managed to go from level 26 to 28. Everyone leveled at least once...with the exception of Ewing.

    Next week, we are going to Flashback a couple of story arcs through Ouroboros (or my base, whichever is more convenient). I will try to go with something that has AVs, badges, etc.

    I will have the sign-up posted sometime tomorrow.

    Thanks again everyone.


    Edit: Hey - this is post number 6000 for me!
  7. Should have said this earlier, but...


    This is Tonight!

    See everyone in a few minutes!

    Bad load times can have a lot to do with the amount of ram in your comp - how much ram do you have in your system & which OS are you using?

  17. Good run last night everyone!

    We had a bit of a hiccup starting out though...

    First Cap decided to spit everyone out and then after we relogged, I found out that I could not start a flashback mission since I was not quite lvl 25...

    So Supernumiphone ran the There's a Sucker Born Every Minute arc for us (I promptly leveled to 25 during the first mission).

    We missed out on the 5 deaths & 1 hour time badges, but we ran it with the following restrictions:

    Enemies Buffed: Courageous Badge
    No Inspirations: Unimaginative Badge

    And we also earned the Paragon of Vice Badge, which is part of the Willy Wheeler's arc.

    We finished in approximately 1 hr 20 mins with 11 deaths.

    Half of the team departed after this, but the rest of us ran some other Flashback Badge missions:

    Steal the Outbreak Virus: Plague Carrier Badge
    Steal the Facemaker's Reanimation Chemicals: Mask Maker Badge
    The Loa Bone: Bone Collector Badge & also come with the nice Loa Bone Temp Power
    Hurt the Traitorous Vendetti: Stone Cold Badge

    Thanks for joining everyone! Next Wednesday will be the Operative Renault SF. I will have a sign-up post on here later today.

    Also, just a little heads-up: Come Crash with Mr E III is returning for DXP Weekend (March 5-7) - a series of 10 TFs/SFs are planned.

    The schedule will be finalized by Saturday, so look for the sign-up post sometime Saturday or Sunday.

    2) Crafting a Bunch of recipies, cycling through chars trying to find all my salvage

    I KNOW I left some corrosive gas around here somewhere.....

    Yes my salvage bins are too full....
    You are still good at level 21 - the Flasback is 15-19, so you are good to go & we can start from my base (as mentioned above), so being level 25 for ouro is not a problem either.
  19. Just a little reminder...


    This is Tonight!

    Also, since I have not played this character since last week & I may not reach lvl 25 before we start, I think it would be best to begin this from my base Pillar of Flame Aspect - so lets meet by the Base Portal in Cap au Diable.

    See everyone tonight!

    Dr. Awe (lvl 29 I think) Sonic/Dark Corr. Would love to lvl intra
    but Dr. Awe needs level love 2 so your choice. I will try to lvl Intra tonight if she is close or if I can find a PUG.
    Either is fine, if we need to, we can use the pillar in my base to start the missions up, so being below lvl 25 is not a problem.

    I'll bring something. Probably Flaming Lunatica Fire/Psi Dom

    I was thinking Ouro, but if we have anyone sub-level 25, we'll move it to my base.
