Video drivers is what I would look at.

I had the same problem with an older PC running win 7. Had to go looking for a legacy driver that would work.

Stephen

Been looking myself. Well while trying to connect lol. But I always have a hard time connecting on path days.

Hmm, still seems down for me.

Stephen

Heh, came up also as I wrote this

EDIT 2: Now when I clicked on Justice, it booted me back out saying I need to fill in my account field/Password.

So I did, and then it says, you are currently logged in, which I am not.

My apologies then. I missed the points you had made, as I only skimmed the article.

Ok, so it won't work.

Stephen

PS, Here is what the Catalyst says, Have no clue if it's software or hardware mode.

--------------------

Like I said, sorry I missed what you wrote earlier.

Well, don't give up hope yet Mayhem. I was able to get an ATI Xpress 200 on board video running with COH last night, with Win 7 Ult (64).

It took a lot of searching for the right Driver, but I got it working. I'm almost positive your card came out later than the Onboard one I have did.

Mind you, You might have to turn everything waaay down, But at least you can get on.

Stephen

LOL, hey thanks man, I'll do just that.

I can run three maybe four on my main machine, but I moved an Account over to my spare PC.

I'll just move the chat windows around then, and see what I can do. It was just me being lazy anyways.

Stephen

I'll try and explain a bit better here.

I usually play anywhere from 1-3 accounts. Now I got a handle on all of the Tab chats, etc. etc. but there has been a time or two, That I have missed a tell on one of my secondary accounts, while focusing on my main.

So, is there a way to send a tell to my main, that originated from another account (my slaves if you will?)

For example, accounts A,B,and C.

Account C gets a random tell, and it sends the message to account A.

I can then hop to account C and respond.

If not, I guess I need to practice more vigilance and pay closer attention.

Stephen

Hey thanks again all.

Hehe, you know what Starjammer, you are more than likely right on that.

Stephen

Well I'll be darned. Tried once more to connect, and it went right through. Ok, Ignore this one I suppose, have no idea what I did.

Stephen

Hi all, Me again, with a new problem for me.

I recently decided to put COX on another PC, so that if my wife want's she can play. I have three accounts, and can play all three on one PC if I need to transfer items/Salvage between toons etc.

Now I have set up port forwarding on my Belkin Router, for my first PC. No problems, easy as pie.

But when I enter the same ports for the second PC, It won't accept them. I believe this is because they are already in use with the first PC.

So how do you all manage to play on more than one PC? Do I just ignore the port forwarding, on the second, and hope it connects? Mind you theis is not wireless at all, But connected via Cat5.

I had read when I searched the boards that there was problems with Wireless, so I didn't go that way.

Using Win7 Ultimate 64, on both machines.

Any ideas friends?

Stephen

PS sorry for spelling error in title of Router.

Thanks all, I went ahead and PM'd Avatea earlier. I kinda figured this is how it would go, But never hurts to check first.

Stephen

Thanks so much for the reply's all. I'll PM Avatea then as suggested. Well, as soon as I get off my Derriere, and go feed the cows.

Hi all, I have a good friend, who is Disabled, in that he has severe and debilitating Arthritis. It has turned his Hands into basically balls. Now in the past, he has been able to do some things online, with the help of specialized Keyboards and the like, But as it progresses, It get's harder for him to do so.

A long time ago, I played with using my voice to control my toons in WoW, with using Dragon Software, and then eventually Microsofts own software.

I imagine this would be very easy to set up for CoX also, But my question is simply, Can I do such a thing and be ok with the EULA.

I could see where this would be similar almost to Automation, in that while I can have it for example, I say "One" it presses one on the keyboard.

But it could also be used as "One" and it presses keys one through 5.

Before I even try and push him into getting this game, I wanted to check first, and see what the legalize is here. The last thing I want is for him to get a copy, and then get banned right off.

Or better yet, If anyone has another suggestion, as for helping him to play, I would appreciate it greatly.

Thanks so much for your time everyone.

Doh. Laptop, I missed that part. Never put one in a laptop, so I really don't know man.

Stephen

Gypsy , I use one when I used to multi box WoW, and it worked great.

I see right now, that new egg has one on sale, that might be up our ally.

I hope posting a link like this to help answer a question, isn't a violation, such as promoting, as I have no relationship to New egg, outside, of, the taking a lot of my money over the years.

Anyways, I hope this ya man.

I for one, have always wanted to re-create the Burr-Hamilton Duel. Now I can with "Duel" pistols.

Stephen

I get it now, This is like Fishing. I stepped away for 5 minutes to go Defrost a Freezer that my wife has been after me about, and I come back, and boom, she is good to go.

It's all about how you hold your mouth, wear your hat, just like fishing.

Also just like fishing, it teaches me a valuable lesson in Patience.

Hi All, Earlier this week, and up until about 2 this afternoon, I was going great with this game.

I am on satellite, so I know it takes some time to connect, So I always have one game going, and another in the back ground to connect. When I logged off today, to do A PC reboot, I immediately, started up the COH connector thingie. (technical term.)

And went about my business. I came in about 11 tonight, to see they had tried connecting 243 times so far. I turned it off, and decided to retry.

Now I have tried 2 different ways so far.

one with the normal "H:\COHV\City of Heroes\CohUpdater.exe"

and one with -project coh -maxinactivefps 3 -maxfps 30 added. (note I now have three accounts up and able to go.

Flushed DNS, Checked the firewall, Restarted modem, no idea what else I can do. even my router has all the ports open.

I sit here, and watch for example, the Age of Conan Updater flying through, I can connect to my Guildwars account with ease.

Fellow Heroes of Paragon City, Help a country boy out.

AMD PHenom 9850 quad core
4 gig ram
Win7 64 bit
ATI4350 512 MB Video
Just under 1 TB HD space.

Is it possibly just the evening time that there is so many logging on, and it's messing up on my end? I can also post pings to the different Updates servers, but I never know which one to use.

Stephen

Oh I like that idea man.

LOL, shoot, I am having to play so much catch up it's not even funny. My goal is to have at least two fresh 50's when the Game comes out. One Hero, one villain.

As easy as it is to level now though, it shouldn't be too hard.

Stephen

Leningrad... Hmm. They had a 900 day Siege, and Elves live beyond 900 years?

Lenin himself, Hmm... Marxist theory---> hippies---> Treehuggers---> elves?

I'm sure you could figure something out man, You already have the imagination for it.

~Stephen

Well, I'm just glad I had a chance to read it. I could have sworn, of course it has been years ago, that there was a sub forum, just for toon bios.

Anyways, I love quirky though. One of my ideas for a villian toon is based roughly off one of my Favorite Novels, Grunts, by Mary Gentle.

I loved that novel so much, that 12 years ago, I named my first Brindle Boston Terrier (passed away 4 months ago) Gruntie Gentle.

The Premise, was about a group of Orcs who located a Time Traveling Dragons, Horde of treasure. It involved a cache of Marine Corp weaponry, adding a whole new twist to the term Grunt.

So far out there in the Premise, and so rewarding to read, esp. as A Marine myself (86-92)

Quirky is good, when pulled off, and you managed it with all the aplomb and Bluster needed. Never going overboard, and keeping the right pace.

Well, anyways, Have the game downloaded , and should be able to play soon, Had it Verifying the Game.

Thanks again, for some inspiration here.

~Stephen

Darndest thing, I can't connect to any update servers tonight to finish the game download. Been trying to connect since about 12:45 this morning. Oh well, Keep trying I suppose.

Stephen

I recently came across your thread, While Lurking in one of the costume Threads here on the board.

As a returning Player, I had forgotten how intricate, and detailed a nice Back ground like yours can be, to enhance the over all game play.

I really did enjoy reading this, always expecting Scholl, or even the Janitor to be transformed into the hero you mentioned, But I have to admit, the Slime in a bucket, was an unique twist.

Thanks for a little enjoyment for me today, as I await continuing to download tonight.
