  1. [Guide] Asking for technical help on the forums.





    With that old of a video card, I usually have better results using the 197.45 drivers that were the last WHQL drivers in the 1xx.xx series.

    On the new character selection screen, the way the non-selected characters are shown (slightly greyed out or lower contrast) makes it hard to spot your non-selected characters from the sea of "unlockable" slots.

    Is it possible you could make the unlockable slots a little less prominent? i.e. less prominent than my alts please!
    Suggestions and Ideas forum section is further down.

    I have doubts because I did see some recent NVIDIA users as well.
    There are known problems with the 11.5 and newer ATI drivers and CoH. Many users find the 11.4 drivers to work well for them, some find older drivers work better.

    I originally owned the Abraxus name. I am not sure when, but somehow, someone else stole it from me, and I ended up with a "2" designator. My first created character was Abraxus on Virtue, and he and this account were created on the same day, so it is anybody's guess how the name switch happened.

    Sorry for the off topic post, but TJ did "ponder". I felt obligated to explain.
    Abraxxus is a player on Justice. He was Abraxxus in Beta. After looking at one of his posts I found he didn't register on the forums until around September, but he was in the game since Beta. He has multiple accounts. A few of his accounts got re-activated as Premium accounts.

    I was merely pondering if this was one of them and he'd spelled his name wrong on the account.

    Nothing to see here. Move along.

    You get to keep it. You just don't get to access it without a subscription.

    Before Freedom, Incarnate access had two pre-requisites:
    1. Going Rogue code applied to account
    2. Active Subscription
    After Freedom, one of those pre-requisites has been removed. The only pre-requisite now is:
    1. Active Subscription
    Incarnates were NOT included with Going Rogue. Having a Going Rogue code applied to your account was a pre-requisite for accessing Incarnate content once Incarnate content was released.

    The game model that they changed to was not a conventional F2P model. It was their version of a Hybrid model. There are always going to be items available to subscribers that non-subscribers won't have access to. It's called putting out an incentive to become a subscriber.

    Or to use a phrase my grandmother used:

    Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free.
  6. There have been a multitude of issues reported with the ATI drivers from 11.5 and up.

    Some have had to go farther back than the 11.4 drivers to find ones that run correctly.

  8. Because they are upgrading the server hardware. And the servers aren't in California.

  9. Well, I should have stated it as Free players, since that is what the account I tried it with was.

    But it wasn't an old Trial account. It was ... an account that has never had any money spent on it. No characters on the account on any server when I logged in. 2 unlock tokens.

    The same way they don't read the heading at the top of the Gameplay / Technical Issue & Bugs forum section.

    You know, the one that reads as follows:

    Having severe Alt-itis makes it tricky to remember sometimes where I left off with a particular
    hero or which has the most influence available if I need to transfer some.

    Really like the level up wheel around the hero/villain icon too. It's already familiar
    to everyone and tells you at a glance who is close to dinging.

    P.S. I read your text just fine DD but it was nice of you to change it for others having trouble seeing it.

    You may want to reread the part you quoted and commented on.

    Well, I'll make it easier on you to find what I'm talking about.

    Colors are one thing. Colors that are difficult to read are a different matter entirely.

    Exalted doesn't grey out for Free or Premium players. When you select Exalted is will show the slots (if no characters have been created there in the past) as Unlockable by VIP whereas the other servers show slots as Unlockable.

    I'll tell you in a couple of months what it says for characters created by a VIP on Exalted once they go Premium.

    That's from the description for this forum section.

  18. Shouldn't be. Those drivers were released after the Ultra Mode additions, so those are supported.

    I've had better performance and less issues on older video cards using those than on the newer drivers.

    EDIT: Download the older drivers but don't install them. Download and install Driver Sweeper but don't run it yet. Uninstall the current drivers from Add/Remove Programs (XP) or Programs and Features (Vista? and 7). Reboot into Windows Safe Mode and cancel any driver installations that come up. Run Driver Sweeper and let it remove the remnants of the current driver installation. Reboot into normal Windows mode and cancel any driver installations that come up. Install the 197.45 drivers. I'd have posted a link to the drivers but I'm not sure what OS you have.

  20. There is a manhole in the hallways of Pocket D that will take you to Faultline. The South Skyway tram stop isn't that far from the Faultline zone gate.

    There are contacts in the teens that send you to talk to Jim Tremblor in Faultline when it's level appropriate to run his arc.

    Given the state of the zone, it's no surprise that Tram service hasn't yet been added.

    It's that avatar he has. It's distracting enough to make anyone mistype his name.

    BTW, you do know you can edit your own posts to correct the spelling, right?

    With the timestamps on your posts it wouldn't even had shown you edited it and we'd have been none the wiser.
