Sadly there is no way to access the beta server as it has been wiped after use. Sorry!

If you saved your costumes to file, then they should still be accessible in C:\Program Files\CoH Beta\costumes (presuming that was your install directory).

Otherwise, yeah... the beta server gets wiped at the end of beta periods.

Not necessarily. Beta server was up sporadically until about the end of last month, then access went away. I can still *reach* Beta server now, but it says the sever isn't responding.

Given that Test currently is available to all and hosting Halloween testing, but that i-19 is due to be released soon, I'm willing to bet there's some variety of testing happening on the Beta server - we just can't access it. If / when it goes to open beta, if it's not moved onto the Test server, there's a chance that the OP may be able to acquire his costume and power files at that point.

No guarantees of course, and I could be completely off my rocker, but there's a tiny possibility.
