but what about the old files?

this is a one in a million chance I guess but can anyone please PM me any good fire/cold builds? I am interested in possibly making one for AVs

It would be cool if the new power customisation lets you disable special effects and not just change the colours:

super reflexes is a major culprit this really, it's very suitable for Natural origin characters but has loads of extra shiny effects for no real reason other than I guess to make the warcrap people feel more at home

Please, give us the chance to turn the rainbows off!

hi Coolio didn't know you used this place too

Yeah that train run reminds me of when you had to follow the train along to get that one on the side of a building on a ledge and jump over the train when it came hehe fun... before good vs evil edition ;D

Is there any way to open .hro files from the old version of mid's into the program?

When I try open it it says "ExtractAndLoad Failed" (the header of the popup) then an exclamation triangle and "Unable to locate data header - Magic Number not found!"

It says this on all 3 of files I was trying to open :/

This Sunday right? As in TONIGHT?

Paragon Violators.

About Us:
Very active, friendly SG, semi-regular TFs/trials. Roleplaying friendly though not compulsory - SG channel generally is used as an OOC medium. PVP friendly, we have over 750 legit PVP kills to date (as per the SG badge we have), with several Recluse's Victory "raids" back when it was good prestige during the double XP weekends, defeating all challengers.

(We are in the top 100 for prestige earned, though these days that doesn't mean much with the growth of farming from something that only the real-money-paid powerlevellers (yep, NCsoft still haven't dealt with the problem years later - I personally know of at least 2 Korean companies [yes, like NCsoft HQ] sadly still active in-game, even more so than the old days now) generally did to a more common thing by "normal" players, especially since inventions came out - in the old days before farming went mental, our villain group was at number 1 for a long time up to about 2007).

Established:
Villain group in 1st November 2005 (I believe we are the oldest still-running VG), unsure of hero SG date in the mists of time, I believe a few years after though.

Leader(s): Me! There have been several since DD tho.

Current Coalitions:

Villaingroup Base:
Massive Secure Plot, the largest possible. Every amenity you could wish for provided.

One of the few SGs to complete the Cathedral of Pain trial back in 2006 (one of our attempts), and former proud owners of 2 out of the 4 unique items of power (only one per server) for Union - The True Furnace (+100k energy to SG base and +10 Endurance to all SG members - our old one is featured on Paragonwiki) and the Heart of a Storm Elemental (+5% health to all SG members) as well as a Monument of Iron (mag 3 protection for all SG members to holds, immobilisation, sleep and stun) - before they were removed from the game (there was an exploit found used on the American servers and it still hasn't been bothered to be fixed by NCsoft almost 4 years later - as well as base raids, also disabled).

Does anyone actually ever fight Hammy hampsterdon anymore? He is never there anymore the zone looks so pointless and lonely...

Ok, so, we've been told it's a merge not a move, why then is this "Union (EU)" while the American servers just have their names?

hmm o_O

don't really care it's just the being lied to that isn't nice

I'd prefer an accent infinitely more times than "y'all", it makes me want to find a giant hammer lol

P.s. Apart from the french and stuff, we don't have the accents. You do. We speak English.

flagwarr1!!!

hmm i don't get why they don't just make it open source for the community if they are going to give it to some random guy anyway

I would if they would only turn the option to transfer back on and let us transfer supergroups (e.g. ridiculous amount of prestige over several years, not really replaceable) too

The lag on the EU servers is disgusting lately, it never used to be like this, and I know it's not just me because everyone complains about it on the same time even on global channels. It's been going on for weeks now and there's been no announcements or anything, it's like this is supposed to be expected as normal service or something now (maybe something to do with the vast amounts of controllers on at all hours doing god knows what (korean goldfarmers) in mission maps - or just something to do with the new architect stuff like the server or whatever)

Ok, sooo
Mid's hero designer official website

I haven't fiddled with this stuff for ages, and I noticed when I reinstalled the program it says "Last update: December 2008"...

Does anyone know if it is still being updated or what? has anyone made like an import thing with the new PVP enhancement sets and any changes between issue 13-15?

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooo

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooo

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooo

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooo

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooo

Rather hypocritical though when they get all uppity about their PMs being posted ...

That is NOT TRUE at all, did you not even click the link to the mod?
Actually, you did didn't you? I notice you deleted it from your quote. Lame attempt at disinformation there...

MODERATORS CAN AND DO READ PRIVATE MESSAGES ON VBULLETIN FORUMS this is happens all the time:
There are tonnes of different plugin mods like that on the vbulletin websites, and if you google vbulletin private messages you'll find loads of discussion about it on forums both by people outraged and inept amoral administrators using them looking for help...

I just had all my private messages suddenly go to unread except the 4 most recent ones (which I'm presuming were marked as read manually by the moderator snooping to try cover their tracks, without realising that I had about 13 old PMs that still stayed marked as "unread" making me immediately check my box for why I suddenly had so many new PMs)... I think I know one of the reasons they switched to vBulletin now - I knew of the notoriety of those things already from running forums myself...

(yes, I realise for personally it might have been better to keep it quiet so that I would know in future when I was being snooped on and I realise now they will probably be fixing the "bug" but I thought it was more important to warn everyone else really)

They'd just move the servers to the UK and all the better for it I bet they'd be run better than the joke we have at the moment where the lag is less for european people on the US servers than the EU ones...
