I suppose I could though I doubt they would help much. This seemed a semi random crash as I haven't had one like it before. Though I'm not quite sure what you mean by COHhelper log.

Just had the game crash in the first shadow path, first ward. I was returning to the contact there. The error was.
./piggs/stage1.pigg:Failed memory allocation
Read failed for file: player_library/V_fem/spadr.geo
The game ran out of memory and must now exit. -
It appears to be a set in development. Not released and probably not released for a few months. but hey the devs could surprise me and give me an early birthday present. Though I'm expecting street justice as my birthday present.

Things with charges are not global. Things without charges tend to be global. Tend to as in I haven't seen anything that doesn't have charges not be global.

Quote:Ah but then if I don't use photoshop I clearly am free to use the word photoshopped without the TM.Reminds me of the EULA Adobe Photoshop has. It says you can't say 'That image was photoshopped! I can see the pixels.' You have to say "That image was enhanced with Adobe Registered Trademark Photoshop Registered Trademark, I can see the pixels."
And yes, according to that info, you have to include 'Registered Trademark' in the sentence. -
I would love to make a centurion Rory. But what would he be? Sword/shield? Not brute really, perhaps scrapper.

And oddly you can still use the actual Ouroboros crystals in the central tower to do the lower level missions. Yes the entry missions need adjusted.

The good news is that if it works right you won't have to wait as long as a full download. The bad news is that you still have to wait for a chunk of it to download.

Quote:In this case the more the OP speaks the more the problem sounds like a PEBKAC or ID ten T error. If it wasn't one of those the OP would take the time to actually describe the problem and the exact steps taken to attempt to fix it.So you're saying the problem isn't with the game it's with something else the OP has installed on his Mac that interacts with the game. Something that was developed by Apple, the makers of Mac's.
Oh and probably would have posted in the tech forum where there is less snark. -
Quote:Well clearly what the OP is asking you to do is tunnel into his/her computer and take it over so you can properly debug the problem. I mean if they actually wanted help or had like a real question they might give more info about what is wrong.You tried deleting 'user.reg', then trying to launch the game (don't have the launcher running while you do this!)? You also tried deleting the Preferences folder? And what exactly do you mean by it won't launch? Please be specific... I know being vague is all fun and all, but it's not helpful to anyone (especially yourself).
Before we can know how to fix the problem you're having, we have to know what problem you're encountering, and we can only do that if you're willing to provide more information. -
Quote:Shouldn't you just be able to redownload and reinstall the launcher then?The NCSoft Launcher is lying to you because it's (to be polite) not very good.. Despite what it tells you your game is not up to date. Specifically it no longer tries to contact the correct login server. There have been several changes to the ip address recently and for some reason a number of us do not receive this information.
The login ip for Test and Beta has not changed and that's why you can still reach those two.
Sadly there is little you can do besides a full or partial reinstall to get the new ip address.

Wait I think NCSoft has a limit of only 2 credit card charges per day. It is a customer protection thingy but I forget the details. My mind is fuzzy and full of mice.

I remember it being somewhere under the master account management. But then it's been several years since I set mine. I just don't remember the specific place to go there.

Quote:I often find the guides on building various types of AT good for that. The best of them tend to mention a power and how it works. sure they all head off into min/maxing in the end but if they are good they give you an idea of how the powers interact and which ones you might or might not want to take. They also give you a good idea of other powers you might want to take. Though if you are not planning to min/max you don't have to get into the minutia of this slotting scheme is better than that one.So I discovered!
I feel a little silly for not anticipating that, I guess. Here I was hoping to get some insight into why I might choose to try a Brute after all my years loving Scrappers, only to find that none of the discussion pertained to me and my level 1 toon (or even the first 40 levels of his career). So much for getting a feel for which AT might fit my playing style better. Even when playing style was thrown into the mix in those threads, it seemed to be "playing style" only within the context of max-level-you-have-top-tier-IOs-slotted-of-course characters.
In the case of general building what you want isn't slotting but the basic powers and how they interact. At least that is my casual take on it and how I use the AT forums. Useful information but don't worry to much about the min/maxing part unless it interests you. -
Quote:That is it. It isn't a 1 character costume slot unlock, it is unlocking slot 6 etc for all characters.Hmm. I keep looking, under costumes>tailor, and all I see are the global (all character) costume slot unlocks. Everything else I find under the costumes section are costume change tokens, item unlocks, and system (super science, aura,cape) unlocks. What am I missing?

Quote:Yes it definitely isn't for everybody. I find it most useful for shadow and darkness based characters. Basically it creates a pool of deep purple energy around your feet that you slide on. Nice but your character concept needs to support it. I actually switched one of the characters I had using it to beast run given he is a claws/dark tiger morph. Though I may switch him back he does look cool sliding on it.Let me just say, that the Power Slide looks nothing, -nothing- like an ice slide. If you've not seen it, either find a video of it, or ask in your servers global channels if someone how has it, can demonstrate it for you so you can see what your asking for.
Not that I'm saying it's lame, I found a CE at a Big Lots for $10, and picked it up. I use it on occasion, but not that often at all. Your character stands somewhat like they do on the rocket board, but you stay grounded, and there's a purple mist that surrounds your lower half. Other than those animation details, it's exactly like Sprint. -
Quote:Somewhere along the line in the past we went from 8 - 12 slots per server. Some people those counted as bonus slots others post Paragon Studios just had them. With Freedom they gave everyone who had purchased a boxed set +2 slots. Which explains why I went from 3 to 5 unused slots. I had been wondering about it too. I had thought those +2 slots wouldn't count for me because my account is so old but hey I'm not going to complain if they give them to me.It is interesting that you are seeing +2 Global Slots compared to your pre-Freedom unredeemed slot count. I am seeing the same thing. My Global Slots is listed as 5. Prior to the Freedom Head Start I had five redeemable slots, of which I had used two, leaving me with three.
I am not complaining, mind you, but I am curious as to the source/reason for the +2 Global Slots. -
They are under costume not character. And of course I can't remember the submenu of costume that they are on since I'm not logged in right this second.

I think I saw this in another thread and it is the "-project coh" in the command line of your shortcut that is causing the error. That is an old trick to bypass the updater but doesn't work with the launcher.
One suggestion since it seems to working for the others. Copy the PIGGS folder from the beta folder to the live game folder. Then after starting the launcher right click on "CITY OF HEROES" and select repair.
Also right click on it and select properties and see if anything is in the extra command line parameters field.
If neither of those work I would suggest asking this up in the technical support forum where people who answer this sort of thing hang out all the time. -
Some credit card companies limit the amount you can purchase in a month from online gaming companies. You may have run into one of those limits.

Quote:Hmm, you know it might be that they still haven't fixed the bug that required jiggling your account password to work around. Because of whatever that bug is this might be happening.I got logged out of the boards on Tuesday. They wouldn't let me back on until earlier today - Thursday. And even then, it's probably because I "jiggled" my game account password. The logout bug has somehow gotten worse. I didn't think that was possible.
Still someone please fix it. -
On reflection even though it doesn't effect me I would like to see the people who did this punished. Have those names forcibly removed from them and possibly either a temp ban or a permanent ban for their behavior.
It isn't cool or funny unless your high on something to do that to other people. -
Well here is hoping that the name I actually want to use is available. They can camp TerrraDraconis all they want but I only plan to use that name one one server where he is at right now.
The name I do want I managed to get on another server and it would be nice to have it on Exalted because it was done as a villain who really should have been a hero. And now I can make him that way.... Yeah... -
Ok, I logged in last night checked the remember me box read and posted etc. then came back this morning and had to login again. Alright whatever sometimes that happens. So I go off to have lunch and close my browser and come back and have to login yet again.
This wouldn't be so bad except that the boards memory of last read posts is still stuck on this mornings settings. So I have to hunt through active threads to figure out where I left off reading them.
Please someone fix it?
