  1. Aww - at least I was able to get a screenshot of my character next to her billboard before they switched it! (Just wish I'd been able to bump up the graphics...)

  2. Oh, yay! My billboard

    It is very strange that they chose that one for Faultline and I have no clue why except for the theory that Emperor Cole is being sneaky.

    The ones I did for Primal were PCN instead of TPN for Paragon City News, a la so. The other versions are posted on my DA page if you're interested in them too.

    I love running into the other billboards around the city. It was a lot of fun coming up with the idea and so cool to see people notice them.

    Players are crashing when launching CoX via the NC Soft Launcher - This issue occurs occasionally when patching data is corrupted. We're currently investigating this issue. Players experiencing this should attempt to repair the client using the repair function in the NC Soft Launcher. If all else fails, players can use the legacy launcher to verify the files.
    Throw me in with this one too. This has been happening with me since the new launcher was released. I've tried repairing and I've tried running as administrator (which I should already be doing...) The only way I can get the launcher to run is to completely restart my computer. Then it will run that one time, but when I go back to it a day or so later, it's the same process...

    Ditto this... still.

    When I'm having this issue, it's not just the forums I can't access either. It's also the City of Heroes website and NCSoft, so I can't access my account options or anything. And still only these sites. Absolutely no problems with anything else anywhere else.

    *is very sad*

    (and I'm copying this just in case the forums decide again that they're just teasing and not going to post my reply. )
  5. I just wanted to note that flushing dns did not help in any way for me. I am also experiencing this on multiple computers at home, but this is the only website I am having problems with, so I don't think it's from anything here at home. Very irritating...
  6. I'm also going to chime in on this one. I've been having this problem more on than off over the last two days. This is a major irritation for me since I participate in the RP boards and write and join in with the others. It's problematic when I go to post and can't because the page hangs, doesn't load, or otherwise throws an error.

    I haven't tried the dns flushing - about to try that now - but wanted to make sure others knew it was affecting more than 2 people.

    ^_^ Glad you like them!

    I used Daz3D for the character. The Rogue Isle version is the one I've heard the most about, and I'm glad I did it. See, villains get a wee bit of love! (Even if they go around tagging pictures of pretty girls with mustaches. ) I thought that was the perfect vandalization for the sparkling smile. *grins*

    By the way - I would definitely drink a Kinetic beverage... while wrapped up in a Clanket.
  8. First off, I loved the winners. Kudos for great ideas and wonderful execution!

    Heya - I am one of the runner-ups and I actually submitted four versions of my billboard. Two orientations for Paragon City (horizontal, vertical), one for Rogue Isles and one for Praetoria. It was fun coming up with ways the same idea could be portrayed for each area.
  9. I actually run into this issue with my keyboard as well, but with the arrow keys rather than the lettered ones. I've found that if I use auto run, I can turn in any direction, but if I'm pressing the forward key and try to turn right, it's a no-go. So, I just try to remember to hit auto-run whenever I plan on doing a lot of jumping. *shrug*

    Welcome, Danny, and feel free to release your "inner weirdo". You are on a board full of people that spend a lot of money and time to play with online virtual dolls, after all.
    They're action figures, Dec, you know that!

    Welcome Danny!

    Congratulations!

    And for the record - this is how I learn all things graphics and design related. *grins* I have yet to do something "the right way".

    Truth be told, I love your sig too. Eye-catching and piques the curiosity. Not to mention cute idea!

    Ooo - I hope you pick me!

    I'm throwin' Lace atcha for Gray. Everyone loves Lace, but she's always up for an archery challenge. *grinz*

    I've got a render in my DA link below, but can get a screenie or two of her from the game if needed.

    One of these times, I might volunteer as the artist.
  16. That’s it.

    Mama J is in the house and everyone will sit down and shut up. Now!

    Averick – you go sit in your corner, and Devious in the other. Do not speak to each other, don’t look at each other and do not make any faces. One peep and you’re both grounded!

    I have to get up in a little more than 6 hours to go to work, where instead of doing what I love (like my job title says) I have to deal with a back-stabbing, conniving [censored] who likes to claim my work as her own. I don’t know about you, but that sounds like plenty of [censored] real life drama. I don’t need it here.

    We’re supposed to create drama for our characters, not for each other and this has gone on for far too long.

    I always try to let things play out – and in most cases, it works for the better. But, just because I’m not the ‘owner’ of any of these threads, doesn’t mean that your actions don’t affect me. I have over two years invested – almost daily – in these threads. And I love it.

    For the both of you to bicker so constantly about this is just plain, damn ridiculous.

    Devious – a lot of your characters come across as omniscient or all-powerful. If they have weaknesses – SHOW THEM! That’s what I love about your character Jade. I have seen – and more importantly, MY CHARACTER has seen – his weakness! That’s realistic.

    Averick-stop egging on the fight! We already all know your stance with Devious and his characters. Enough already!

    I am ashamed of this behavior. Especially in light of the small fact that it’s in a public forum! No one person should have to ask permission to do something with their own character, and no one should have to tell everyone their plans. The uncertainty of what might be coming is part of the enjoyment we all share with writing here. (At least, I thought we all shared it…)

    And everyone should be able to adjust their plan just in case their post does go against someone else’s plan – whether or not it was previously disclosed.

    Now, please. For my sanity…

    Enough…
  17. *looks around*

    I don't see any realistic setting if we've got people possessed by dark spirits, angels trapped in crystals and metal dragons.

    I can see how the character's personality can be portrayed realistically, but how can any of the other stuff be real? We're superheroes in a fictional city that was ravaged by aliens! Go us!! ^_^

    This isn't me ganging up or asking for you to constrain your characters or anything, but maybe leaving the word 'realistic' out might be a good idea. *winks*

    The Two Six: OOC

    Hey guys..

    Just want to give everyone a heads up that I'm not likely to be posting much over the next week or so. Personal - sad - stuff's come up and I'm not even going to be trying to be creative for a bit.

    I'll still be reading and hanging out and answering pm's and stuff, so I'm still here.

    Any well wishes or prayers sent in my direction are definitely welcome.

    Thank you for understanding and sorry if I'm leaving anyone hanging!

    Nice story and very well written
  22. CHARACTER NAME: Baiden
    APARTMENT NUMBER/LOCATION: Garett 2
    STORYTELLER: Seikon
    SHORT DESCRIPTION: Baiden doesn't remember anything from before she woke up in an abandoned lap.

    Her armor is a bronze and blue-gray and her right arm is mechanical. The armor covers her completely from head to toe with the exception of bright green eyes.

    She speaks in a non-intrusive telepathic level. Most hearing her won't even notice any difference between this and a normal voice, although, she can throw it across rooms to help conceal her in necessary.
