Mids' I17: The Second Coming

This update took a little longer than we had hoped for, but here it is.

Mids’ Hero/Villain Designer 1.7 DB v17.90415– May 2010

Game Build
Power database in line with game build 1800.201003300904.10T4 (Issue 17)

Changes & Updates:

  • Fixed bug causing Blaster and Controller numbers to be wrong
  • Fixed a bug causing Stalker Patron attacks to show double damage
  • Fixed a bug in Mastermind Patron pools that would not allow the last power in the set to be selected if only the first two powers were taken
  • Added support for Demon Summoning
  • Added new Vigilance for Defenders
  • Changes made to support Blessing of the Zephyr set bonus change
  • Fixed numerous previously reported bugs

Known Issues
  • Ninja Run does not display correctly for Kheldian form powers. Ninja Run is replaces the form inherent power.
  • The powers obtained by Dual Pistols > Swap Ammo, do not apply any effects to Dual Pistol powers.
  • Diminishing Returns for PvP mode have not yet been added, all buffs currently show their full, unmodified values.
  • The Power Graphs for the current build do not display effects for pseudo-pet powers like Ice Storm. This does not affect the Powerset Comparison, which is now fully aware of pseudo-pets.
  • 60 Month Vet reward button not added. This means taking a Tier 3 travel pool power at level 6 or higher is automatic for everyone. You need to know whether or not you are eligible for this reward or you must take your travel power at level 14 or higher.


Get it over at Titan Network.


If you have any questions/comments/concerns/bugs, please report them at the Titan Forums.

Nice work as always guys.

Just a quick question, does critical hit calculate into the DPS of the scrapper primary attacks? If not would that be possible? Critical hits effecting dps so i can compare scrap dmg to brute dmg a bit more accurately

That's just great. Stalker fix yay!

I only have one question (out of curiosity). Do you have a plan on how to add diminishing returns for pvp? Because even the pro players who pvp all the time with the combat monitors on don't have a clear idea on how much anything gets DR'ed in pvp.

Thanks for the adjustments! Much appreciated!

DR is a work in progress. As of right now, there is no clear-cut formula to figure DR. There have been some ideas posted, but nothing concrete. This is something that I really want to get implemented into Mids', I just don't know when it will happen.

LOL.

On a side note, in this newest version, in my insanity of trying to get the blaster and troller numbers fixed, I forgot to double check to make sure the new vigilence was working correctly. It wasn't, so when I get to work, I am gonna roll up a new install and get that out.

Sorry for all the problems with the I17 realease(s) everybody, Steiner and myself ran into a lot of stuff that we weren't really expecting. We are determined to make sure you guys (and gals) have a quality program with correct data and information.

Mastermind Patrons still seem.. not quite right; the last power will open up even if none of the other patron powers have been selected by level 47. The other Mastermind patron powers seem to be working correctly as are the other Patron and Epic powers as far as I can tell.

It still tells me that an update is available at startup.


A game is not supposed to be some kind of... place where people enjoy themselves!

The About information from the program is showing that it is version 1.704, on the latest download. Is this right? I uninstalled it completely and reinstalled it and got the same thing, and I am still getting the updater message that there is a newer version. The installer is labelled as 1706 but running the program reports 1.704. Am I doing it wrong here somewhere?

No you are not doing anything wrong. For watever reason the version nubmer in the program didnt change. Correct data is more important than correct versioning. To bypass this issue click Options > Configuration > Updates & Paths > UNCHECK "Check for updates on startup.

Love the app, but does this program have so many builds it warrants a build number tree such as:

*build 1800.201003300904.10T4 (Issue 17)

For real?

That is the build for the game, which we use for Mids' so everyone knows what build the program is designed around. If you have an issue with a few numbers, take that up with Paragon Studios.

Edit: Also, when you copy/paste, be sure to paste the rest of the relivent info..... "Power database in line with game build 1800.201003300904.10T4 (Issue 17)"

After you download the file from Titan Network, right click on the file and select "Run as administrator". That should take care of that issue.

Yeah ... wow.

/facepalm

And thanks for the work you guys are doing to keep this program updated. Seems to be a pretty thankless task unfortunately.
