Some of you have noticed that the Character Copy tool has undergone a few cosmetic changes.

It is now part of the forums and is available at the bottom of the Development section. The previous URL will redirect to its new location but make sure to update your bookmarks!

Please do let us know if you were to encounter any issue with it at all so we can get them taken care of as quickly as possible.

Also note that it recognises your account and will only give you access to the list of servers corresponding to your territory once you have logged into the forums.

Enjoy!

Unfortunately the only way to access it is to log on to the forums with the corresponding CoH Game Account credentials.

It's sexy, I'll admit it.

However, I do have a suggestion. Show the Archetype or level of the character too. Such as

Molten Slowa (Tanker/Level 50)


Doable?

That's unfortunate, made a second account anyway cause I had some toons on my second account I wanted to test power colors and try the new difficulty settings on

*edit: but I do like the new copy tool, much easier to use. And i don't have to hit back 50 times when i want to copy more than one at a time

I'm not sure if there is a way to fix this, but I have a character named Texas' Justice but it is showing on the Character Copy page as Texas\s Justice.

I've queued him up to copy over to Test just to see if it's working, but I'm curious how the Character Copy will handle non-alphanumeric characters in the names.

I'll report back once I see how, or if, he transfers over.


If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Black Pebble is my new hero.

I've come across a strange bug. I recently downloaded the Test Server to try out the new update and once I had logged on under my account a few times I decided I wanted to copy some of my characters to the test server.

Today I changed my account's password (I was confused about what I needed to do to copy characters) and I noticed that when log into the normal CoH servers I have to use the new password but the Test Server still uses my old password. After I had changed my password (and before I noticed this oddity) I tried to copy several of my characters to the test server. I just went back to check and while the character names no longer say "queued to copy" they are still not on the test server.

Is there anything I can do to fix this problem?

Character copy tool frequently takes a long time to copy characters - it can be anywhere from 5 minutes to never. The CCT is a little variable in its reliability. This is a known (and annoying) issue. It might just be borked again.

This is a different issue than the above. The Test environment is out of synch with the live environment for account updates. Things like password changes and bonuses to the account (costume codes or packs), or payments on the account, may take up to 48 hours to propagate out to the test server. This is a known artifact of the test server. Your password change will take effect within the next day or so. It should have no affect on the ability of your characters to move over.

Sorry I can't be more help on the character copy tool; the thing is apparently a pain in the neck for many people (I seem to get it whenever it's up, myself).

@Cende

Thank you very much for your response. I saw a post on how the Training Server was out of sync shortly after submitting my previous post. After my password went through I tried again and the copy worked. It even copied the two characters of the same name from different servers correctly.

Anyway, thanks for your help.

Anyone else having the copy problem again ?

I have been trying to get some toons to test for nearly a week now. The tool says they are copying but they never arrive.

I'm having the same problem. Been trying to copy an alt over all weekend and no luck. Tool says it's in the process but character never arrives.
