    By soft-cap, I mean soft-cap to all except Psi, not just s/l.
    I dunno. How's this?

    Softcapped SLENFC with one enemy in range.
    No attack has less than 93% damage improvement.
    And you have 97% recharge.
    Recovery is 3.5x resting endurance consumption.

    One of my favorites is my (and many others) suggestion the 60-day market auto-delete be done away with.

    My suggestion for the power-ordering of Brute Super Reflexes. Well, it was made in the Brute forums and not here IIRC, but my power ordering made it into game.

    What others can you think of (not necessarily your own)?

    The automated base cost refactoring. Originally base builders were going to have to completely tear their bases apart and rebuild from scratch to take advantage of the base cost refactoring.

    *Cue base builders threatening to carpet-nuke Korea, Texas and California*

    Fairly sure that Walk had been suggested at some time in the past.

If anyone could please give me some suggestions it would be much appreciated.
    Willpower:
    High Pain Tolerance (5 slots) (Plan on adding 1 more):
    Fast Healing (3 slots):
    Indomitable Will (5 slots):
    Rise to the Challenge (5 slots):

    Midnight Grasp (4 slots) (Plan on adding 1 more):
    Fitness:
    Health (3 slots) (Plan on taking away 2 for another power)
    Stamina (3 slots) (Plan on taking away 2 for another power)
    Super Speed:
    Flurry (1 slot)
    Super Speed (1 slot)
    Fighting:
    Kick (1 slot)
    Tough (4 slots):
    Weave (4 slots):
    Leadership:
    Assault (1 slot)
    Maneuvers (4 slots):
    Energy Mastery:
    Focused Accuracy (2 slots) (Plan on maybe adding 1 more):
    Physical Perfection (1 slot) (Plan on adding 3-4 more):
    Okay, two things that will help you immensely.

    1. Grab a copy of Mids Hero Designer.
    2. Grab copy of Titan Sentinel.
    Titan Sentinel will allow you to export your EXACT build from the game into Mids.

    This will make it very easy to view how your build looks and give you the ability to then export the build into a forum-friendly format for others to look at and make suggestions on.

    I died a little inside.

  7. On most of my lowbie squishies, I'm running +1x2. It makes the fights take a bit longer and I occasionally faceplant (like the damn ambushes in the Lady Jane mission of the Midnighter arc, or the T-intersection of the office-to-caves maps).

    On my tanks, brutes and scrappers, I go higher.

    Huh?

    I can sum my own howto up into two sentences.

    Download and run two programs.
    Paste the output from those programs here into your thread so people can dissect them and maybe tell you what's wrong.

    Okay three.
    NO HACKING INVOLVED.


    How exactly is that horrendous? It quite literally takes longer to SUMMARIZE it than it does to actually DO it.

    It's spelled out in excruciating detail in the HOWTO with the thought that some readers may not be very computer literate. So it's best to stick with simple, but exacting instructions.

    Always liked playing Brujah myself. Wow, a game-mandated excuse for ripping off people's heads and ****ing down their necks...

    The only situation where 3gb of memory can be presented in a dual-channel memory configuration is if you have a 4 stick setup, with 2 sticks 1gb, 2 sticks 512mb, and they are matched in capacity on each memory channel.
    Incorrect:

    4 Sticks of 1GB memory and a 1GB video card should also cause the OS to present with 3.0 GB of memory as well.

The practical limit of how much memory a 32bit operating system can present to the user is a little over 3gb of Ram: http://h20331.www2.hp.com/Hpsub/down...%2003Nov05.doc

    Since Memory is binary, it really only works in multiples of two. Since 3gb / 2 = 1.5gb, you can see the problem in a dual channel memory configuration addressing 3gb of Ram.

    On pretty much every chipset sold by AMD, Nvidia, and Intel, you'll lose memory performance forcing the computer to run in a single channel mode that can address 3gb of RAM under 32bit operating systems.

    The exception is Intel's I7 processor which has a triple-channel memory controller... and yes... 3gb would be the fastest 32bit memory configuration for an Intel I7.

    Also, if you have something like Physical Address Extension enabled you can indeed run more than 4gb of memory in a 32bit operating system. I won't go into why this isn't something you want to do here.

    64bit system's don't have these memory limitations, so if you are running a 64bit system, go ahead and move to 4gb of ram.

    * * *

    Now, as to your other question...

    Ultra-Mode, and all of the Ultra-Mode options, do strain the central processor to an extent. It is possible that updates or changes to the game may have introduced a performance regression for your particular system.
    I think you're mixing up how much memory the OS can address with how much the board can support.

    You can still put 4GB of memory into a machine. Yes, it will only see around 3-3.5 (due primarily to upper memory limits and shadowing of video card memory).

    It has nothing to do with memory being "binary".

    Dual-channel, for optimal throughput requires channel 1 and channel 2 to be sporting matched sets of memory in equal amounts.

    Going mismatched between Channel 1 and channel 2 is when you get dropped back to single-channel performance and memory throughput takes a nosedive.

    Now, if memory performance is NOT the issue, simply quantity, this wouldn't matter much.

    Economically it makes the most sense for a user with a motherboard that can support 4GB of memory to buy two sets of matched 1GB sticks, REGARDLESS of whether the OS can see/use it all or not. This way, the user ALSO has the option of upgrading to a 64-bit-capable OS in the future and utilizing the entirety of the system's memory space.

    Actually this is somewhat incorrect. If the OS and the game are competing for that 2GB of memory, increasing system memory can help eliminate the competition by providing a larger memory space.

    For the most part, CoH will grab between 1 and 1.5GB. Windows XP with only 512MB available to it isn't the most responsive situation.

    We he to max the memory out, XP would be able to operate at it's 2GB sweet spot while still providing 1-1.5GB of memory to CoH. This should lower swap utilization drastically.

    Yes, an XP box with 4GB of memory and a 512MB card is only going to see 3-3.5GB of system memory. So some of it is considered "wasted". The remainder of the memory space is still useful if the system is seeing excessive swap utilization.

    Singy!

    Grav/Kin is nice too.

    Grav can be kinda click-heavy (gets easier once you get Singy), so having built-in endurance replenishment is a damn fine thing.

    Yeah, I bought my copy from the PX book store over in Seoul South Korea back in 1992.

    GAH!

    Oh well.

    Try telling me that when I've been trying for a couple months to get a decent team going for an RSF. It's so bad I've got Kidengineer teasing me about starting one of his speed runs now.

    Plus, it's really hard to be a drama queen when people tell you it makes you look like an ****.

    Hyper, can you PM me to remind me to do so whenever the regular visit or any other such events happen?

    I dunno man. What's in it for me?

    Yeah. Not a problem.

    And while you may say "well why don't you contribute" I say, because i don't care. Your morals are not my morals and vice versa. Just like maybe your problems with teaming is not my problem. I have people to team with and its not something i'm worried about.

    So again, could we let this thread die please.

    Ah. Afraid of a little thread competition. I see.

    You're just ticked that I coughed out a suitably ambiguous answer to your query before anyone else.

    Maybe if they hadn't diluted their market with tons of knockoffs of the same system (Bums: The Homelessness, Butchers: The Slaughtering, Politicians: The Bullsh**). Then went and rehashed the system abandoning, essentially rebooting the entire world (Bums: The Bumfights, Butchers: The Prepacked Meat Buying Instead, Politicians: The...oh wait, that never changed...)

    In short, then, maybe, I'd be more interested in the system. I haven't played it in nearly 16 years now (Gah! Now I feel old too! DAMMIT!), and I'm STILL burnt out on the notion.
