It's kind of nice flying blind actually. I don't have to worry about number crunching so much yet.

So, after all that... I bet Mids updates tomorrow. It's the 'car wash/thunderstorm' effect.
Not likely. There are a few more things that haven't been added yet, and some thorough bug-checking is necessary. I can assure you with some confidence that you won't be getting an update in the next couple days.

Yeah, would it kill posters to put a question mark at the end of topics that are questions?

"I21 Mids?" looks like an inquiry.

"I21 Mids" looks like an announcement.

So it's released in three days? Awesome!

Invention system for the new players WITHOUT mids is a RECIPE for disaster.
They'd have to hire me full time, and I doubt that'd be worth it to them. Like with ArcanaVille, why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free? :P Especially expensive cows who are already well-paid developers.

Yea-no. My QA volunteers and the Titan guys have been giving great feedback, and DeProgrammer and I are very quickly going through this. Don't expect anything before the weekend, though. My personal deadline is next Monday and I'm going to do my damnedest to see it released by then.

So not only do you work on Mids and other useful software, but you give milk too?!

Character builds and dairy products for all!

Is there any Mids' swag?

I'd totally wear a mids t-shirt. Just saying.

They should make a Mids' chest logo for CoH, because... OK, it'd be pointless. I know what would be good though. If you were able to copy and paste your build directly into the game when respec'ing, rather than choosing each power individually. That way, the lazy people (probably just me) would have more time to drink tea and watch Nick Jr. That obviously isn't going to happen, so I guess I'll just have to miss Peppa Pig while I slog my way through the respec process... *sigh*

I bet you can't get it done by then. You probably don't have the skills!

(Just kidding, just thought a little negativity might spur you on a bit! )

Honestly, though, Mids is probably the most beloved utility program I have ever used in any MMOs. The only thing that even comes close is a site called femaledwarf.com (A DPS calculating tool for WoW hunters).

Bravo on your work!

I just wanted to drop a note and publicly express my thanks for this software. Half of the fun I have with this game is day dreaming power set combinations in Mids. So a big thanks!!!

If there were no mids I would have stop playing long ago.

If there was no mid's, most of my builds would be severely gimped by something I hadn't thought of ahead of time. So, THANK YOU for all you do to keep my heroes and villains of CoX happily heroic, villainous and not reduced to mere sidekicks.

Just saying.

Note that Mid's Herodesigner is one of the biggest reasons that toons are overpowered these days!

Love the tooling around with builds at work. It is the offline entertainment to this game for sure. Now if we only had an updateable offline costume creator too...


- The Italian Job: The Godfather Returns #1151
Beginner - Encounter a renewed age for the Mook and the Family when Emile Marcone escapes from the Zig!
- Along Came a... Bug!? #528482
Average - A new race of aliens arrives on Earth. And Vanguard has you investigate them!
- The Court of the Blood Countess: The Rise of the Blood Countess #3805
Advanced - Go back in time and witness the birth of a vampire. Follow her to key moments in her life in order to stop her! A story of intrigue, drama and horror! Blood & Violence... not recommend to solo!

Since i21 hit, many of my friends and I have had a running gag regarding, who might have seen any news about the new Mids going up , primarily because we're all addicted at this point =D. Heck, most of us haven't even begun respeccing yet, as we're waiting.

I'd be remiss if I didn't offer thanks for continuing to work on this project, which for my personal circle at least has enriched the CoX gaming experience tenfold. Really donno what we'd do without ya !

Thanks again.
