There are two possibilities:
1) You have an old Windows client installed in Crossover, Crossover Games, or a Boot Camp partition, and the NCSoft Launcher is finding that instead of your actual install. Expand the triangle in the Launcher next to City of Heroes and Double-click the Preferences item to check where NC Launcher thinks it is, and adjust it manually if necessary using the Browse button.
2) It also could be your version of CoH (the files inside the Mac client of the game itself) is so old that it pre-dates the existence of the new Launcher. That's very unusual, unless you haven't been playing for a long while. This is an interesting bug, though, and you should definitely send a ticket to help.ncsoft.com. The easy (but not quick) solution is to delete your Mac game client and re-install it via the NCSoft Launcher. Before you do that, make sure you back up the screenshots, costumes, bind files, etc that are in there (my guide, linked in the signature, explains how to do that).

following the august 4th down time i was opening my city of heros updater (my NCsoft launcher will not work) and the updater wont connect or give me the "next" option followed by the "i agree"
so i decided i would give the NCsoft launcher another try. so i opened it, and to my surprised it opened, went to COH click "play" and it started to launch, then it gave me a "error parsing command line argument 'launcher 1' " I clicked okay and hoped to move on, then i ran into another error "error parsing command line argument setlocate 1033."
finally i made it to the COH login screen, login in, i go to click my server and it says "wrong protocol - get latest version of game."
so do i just needa update my launcher? and if so, how?
if you know the solution shoot me an email at
