This has been a legacy issue since Titan took over. Windows doesn't trust things writing to the Program Files folders. You need to have the program run with Admin permissions if you're still going to have the default setting be $PROGRAMFILES
Yeah, I finally looked into this and made the change to the install building script. So when the next version of Mids comes out, that should stop this.

Got a Mids suggestion? Want to report a Mids bug?

I don't know if it's just my system or if the team fixed it, but the flicker in the Totals window is gone. I've rebooted once since installing the latest version, and closed and reopened the program several times, and the flicker hasn't returned...

That alone makes this the best Mids' release since the first.

Happy. I has one.

Yeah, DeProgrammer fixed that one almost immediately after we took the reins; it had to do with the way it was handling a specific mouse event (it was only supposed to fire on mouse enter and leave, but it was firing on endless loop). I totally forgot to put that into the patch notes.

Persistent glitch that has been in every version I've tried: it likes to reset your save folder to my documents rather than wherever I set it to.

I've never really used Mids, can you import from the game in any way?

Nope, it's out of game only.

Whether a from game import will happen in the future? Who knows.

Just out of curiosity, is anyone else having the issue that the damage calculation for Shield Charge isn't showing up for Brutes? It seems to show up fine for Scrappers.

This may be wishful thinking or I've missed something - but I had understood that the latest Mids had inherent fitness - but my version doesn't seem to. (Using v1.81 and no updates seem to be available.)

I thought (but I'm open to correction) that this version was ready for I19 builds - do I need to do something different?

From earlier posts that will be released with I19. As I understand the Mids philsophy they release to match what is live in the game.

leadnro, (sp? sorry mate) with the voice the ladies love, released a patch for it that should work according to a post on the first page which has a link to the files I believe.

Oh, and great work guys.

Leandro's Patch was designed for the previous version and wont work for the newest one. Here is one I did, based on his, which seems to work for most people that downloaded it.

Ahh, sorry I missunderstood what you had done. And yes, I used it and it works fine.

I send the builds folder to the mids directory rather than My Documents
Set that to the default location in settings
Starting the program will randomly DELETE the builds folder and create it again in My Documents!

One thing i would like to see added is the ability to turn on or off 'suppressable' powers in PvE. like stealth, hide, etc. That way you can see your suppressed defense values, as well as the non suppressed values, and better judge what you'll have in actual combat.
