Will we be getting new minimum and recommended requirements to enjoy Ultra Mode in all of it's beautifulness?
I know it's not a required option but I want to know what I'll need to run it, or maybe I already have a computer capable of doing it. -

Hey Everyone,
I just want to take a moment to say how excited I am to be working with such a dedicated player base and what a privilege it is to be part of the City of Heroes team.
This is going to be an exciting year for City of Heroes. Rest assured that I'll be working closely with the Community Team to support and keep you updated on relevant publishing news.

Sounds like what Ten__ said was correct then, which means it looks like you'll have to use those servers directly to test your scripts.

So again, I post something, then try and get results -.-
It turns out that changing the language in the Euro client actually modifies the "Locale" Reg key for you. I duplicated this change in the American client and found out that it does affect the UI settings.
Unfortunately, it doesn't appear to change the power/badge messages, or the badge flavor text (mentioned above). It seems as though this information isn't actually stored in the client, but (my assumption) is instead sent to the client by the server in the server's native language.

I'm not sure if this will help you or not, but to save you a little bit of trouble, you could probably "Export" the necessary registry keys to a file and "reinstall" them at the appropriate time, without having to open regedit every time.
Yeah, I'm just not sure what the various settings for "Locale" would be. It's a hex key, and in order to test the settings, I would have start up the game and log in to test it out.Quote:Originally Posted by Master-Blade
As for the language not changing in some places.. what happens if you change the value of "Locale"?
And what is wacky about it is that it appears to be the close to the inverse of the settings from if I log into the French Server. The chat messages (like "Congrats, you've earned X badge" or "You have activated Y power") and the flavor text below the badges are in english (along with some other stuff), but the badge name (in the window) and a lot of the UI pieces are in the other language.Quote:Originally Posted by Ten__
The text you're still getting in English is generated by the server, not by the client, so your client settings do not affect it.
You can see the same effect on the European servers. If you log onto the French server with your client set to English or German, you will still get quite a lot of French text, etc.
HTH,

Whoops, looks like I celebrated a bit too soon *doh*
Doing this translates the bulk of the UI, but there are still some chat messages and such that are in English. *boggles a bit, desides to sleep on it* -
Eureka! *runs through the town naked*
erm >.>
Pseudo-solution found:
I had kinda tried the key change, but wasn't having any luck. It would work when launching CohUpdater.EU.exe, but the US client wouldn't keep the setting.
I played around with it a bit, and it turns out that the US updater is actually resetting "Installer Language" and "Locale" every time it launches. When the actual game launches, it reads these and sets the settings.
Here's the workaround I found:
1. Load the US Patcher. Do not click anything here yet.
2. Run Regedit (at your own risk, I guess)
2a. Changing "Installer Language" to the appropriate code (1031 for german, 1036 for French)
2b. Delete the "Locale" key from the Coh folder (This is the important one, as it appears to override the "Installer Language" key.
3. Tab back over to the Patcher, Click "Next ->" and agree to the EULA.
4. The program should load display the splash screen with the "LOADING" text in the appropriate language.
Note again that the registry keys will be reversed the next time you fire up the patcher, so it isn't a permanent solution. But it'll work for my purposes
Thanks for re-triggering a brainstorm

Over at Titan, I'm working on multi-language support for badge verification.
I've currently signed up for a trial on the EU servers to test some of this stuff, but I'm looking at a more long-term solution.
Is it possible to change the client's display language without connecting to the foreign servers? I'm talking about the general, system generated stuff.
I found an old link via a Google search, but couldn't quite get it to work correctly. Might just be my brain being fried for tonight. -

Quote:You can't alter them ie 'they aren't tintable'.Originally Posted by Ectomy
Well thanks, I guess I don't want it that bad after all then...
How about the other helments are they tintable???
Did you see there's also a tailor ticket I'm missing out on gives my boy up top a shout out for that bit of info
Yes I saw it. I linked the article in my first post. Good to know you are reading these

Quote:As a note, the helmets can't be altered either. They only way you can have one is if your character's is of the Arachnos Soldier archetype.Originally Posted by Ectomy
For 2 month sigh...
That's why I'm uncertain what is going on. I have the crab helment via a special perk. I only have the one helment which is unalterable except for the lights on side of helment.
I want the 3 others plus an alterable crab helment, if the vet one is. 3 days isn't bad I'm on day 33 now.
Like you I have always had a great experience with support, otherwize I would've moved along along time ago. That's why I am miffed now. -
Quote:Not necessarily. He mentioned only having the one helmet (from his original preorder). If he had all of them, then yes, he'd have it.Originally Posted by Ad Astra
Per the Wiki, here's what should come with the 51 month badge:
51 Month Rewards
Tried and True Badge
Costume Change Token given to all characters on account
Costume Pieces: Crab Spider, Blood Widow, Mu Mystic, Wolf Spider Helmets
Sounds to me like you do have it - what more were you looking for? -
Quote:You shouldn't be submitting new tickets. You need to reply on one to keep the information in one chain.Originally Posted by Ectomy
I have a crab helment perk from best buy I believe attached to this account. I have several returns saying we'll get back with you but then they never do until I resubmit inquire.
My advise is to create a support account, and use that as your record keeping. At that point, you can even just add information to the ticket from the web.
My emails about broken vet rewards were simple.
Department: Account Support
Subject: X Month Vet Badge
Message "I haven't been awarded my X month Veteran's Reward badge. I believe I should have gotten it on X date."
Maybe that's it. What department were you sending these to? -
Quote:Not sure what you're meaning by "Arachnos perk on my account", but the "Tried and True" Badge, along with Arachnos Helms being available at the tailor are indeed the reward for 51. (ref)Originally Posted by Ectomy
So I have petitioned, I have submitted questions, I even tried skying customer support, so now I bring my problem to the boards as directed. Why I don't know you will have to ask that question to support not me.
I have gone 2 months now without receiving my vet rewards of 51 months. I have never missed a payment I have been polite and not complained figuring it will be the tomorrow it will be there after maintance it will be there tomorrow well 2 months of that has kinda pissed me off.
Its to the point now where support won't even reply to my inquires. In march I'll roll 54 you reckon they both will magically appear then?
Anyone else ever have a similiar problem? I have a arachnos perk on my account and don't know if that is effect the 51 month reward.
Thanks for your ear had to vent, hope someone might be able to help.
You say you have "submitted questions." Have you done this under a support account? If you do this, you will have a record of recent petitions and tickets.
When submitting these questions, you should be getting a "Request/Incident Number" via email (within a few hours at most). You should also follow the directions in this email about replying to the ticket.
Is NCsoft Support <support@ncsoft.com> on your email program's SPAM filter white list? You could be inadvertently dumping all their correspondence.
Have you tried other means? NCSoft has a number for phone support listed on their main page http://us.ncsoft.com/en/support/ -

All events are on switches. They can be manually turned on or off, or a timer set up to turn them on or off. They are not patches, though, if there is a last minute change to an event before it starts, they would need to bring the servers down for that patch and then start the event.

My /traps corruptor runs with a /sonic corr who likes to use Sonic Cage. A lot.
If there is only the one enemy around (caged), and I place a Trip Mine at its feet, it will tick and display "UNNAFFECTED" for the duration of the cage. Once the cage drops, the bomb can be triggered. -

This badge was obtainable in one of the winter events in previous years. Does anyone know if there is a way to still obtain this one? It doesn't look like it can be obtained through candy canes, but I could be wrong and I'm just missing it.
