Inquizitor

Where would I find this?

I'm not sure how reinstalling the client woudln't give you unedited Pigg files. What you are ascing for is basically the entire installed game.

I noticed my Auto attack would stop being on auto every once and a while.

That didn't seem to work I was flying around in a circle in the AE talking to some friends and It did the random Framerate lockup twice.

Uh. I dont see people running around doing AE missions. I see people doing those damned Radio missions over and over and over and over again. Honestly I don't mind doing a few when we first get a group going so we can get into the swing of things but I'd loce to do some other missions once and a while.

Part of the problem with the contact missions hero side is that the missions are spread all over the place. I don't mind going back to the contact but I do prefer the majority of a contacts missions to be in teh same zone. Such as with Villain side. Still there are ways to minimize that. Anywho. I want to see more regular missions to but I don't think what we curretnly have is ruining anything.

and over and over and over.

I'll give those a try. MY fan is running. I lowered the particle effects and removed all but two of what you mentioned. It hasn't been happening as much today anyway. Only once so far today.

I went ahead and lowered the Detail setting but it used to work fine plus that doesnt explain the other games that do this. Still I lowered it. We'll see what happens. I didn't notice any difference in quality anyway.

EDIT: As for the windvd thing. I don't know what you mean by go into services. I'm not seeing any kind of options, services, preferences or anything on the main window. It is already registered though. I'm not sure what it needs to check periodically for.

I have recently run into a problem while playing CoH, Ghostbusters Video game, and Champions Online. Randomly every 5 to 10 minutes my Frame rate will drop to near Zero and I will be unable to move, type, or turn the camera without extreme slide show effects. If I alt tab out of the screen and back in it will fix it but the process can take anywhere from 15 seconds to 2 minutes to complete.

I have not experienced this problem with any other high end game I play including LOTRO, The Sims 3, Empire Total War, Oblivion, Fallout 3, or any of the other games I play.

I use a Nvidia 9800 GTX and have had no trouble running CoH until recently. Can anyone help me with this?



*Prerequisite meaningless fix announcement*

I've checked the drivers and updated them earlier today. It didn't work. Big surprise I know.

Patch applying? They letting i15 go live unannounced and still not fixed up?

[/ QUOTE ]

IF they haven't fixed the bugs in the minor tweaks they are calling I15 by now then I worry for this dev team.

What. You couldn't have 'accidentally' let us see something from Going rogue in your SS?

Lame.

I've never said it was "hard" to do. It said it would be massively time-consuming.

Not even remotely the same thing.

[/ QUOTE ]

Out of curiosity. What is something you would deem hard to do?

Yeah I was suprised at the Cracker thing to. I found that out back when mayhem misisons were first introduces. The badge "Safe Cracker" was bleeping out the second word and I couldn't for the life of me understand why. I knew what a Safe cracker was. It was apropriate usage. By itself I always thought Cracker was something you eat. To this day I have never heard the term cracker used as a curse outside of these forums telling me it is a curse word.

It's a curse word because people want it to be a curse word.

Out of curiosity. I wonder if this is censored.

teabagger

Yes I remember the old days after release with fond memories. I wouldn't trade the changes made since then for the world. AS great as it is to remember how things were I find that I am having more fun with all the options available to me now.

That being said I am chomping at the bit for some more big story updates. I feel like we've been inundated with features lately. Day jobs, Inventions, the AE, Oroborous. While I like all this I'd like to have an issue or two devoted to sweeping story content. New areas, New map types, Alot of arcs for both sides of the fence. We seem overdue.

Is there any way to force something to be a custom critter to be an AV regardless of difficulty level. I am intending to introduce a character in an arc I am working on that needs to be weakened before being taken down. In the corse of the mission that weakens it I want it to be in the area as something you are supposed to avoid or get around and not fight.

Now obviously if a team really wanted to they could but I intend to stress that it isn't something you are supposed to do. The followup mission will be the team fighting a weakened version of the enemy. What I don't know is how to force the thing to be an AV level threat. Is that possible?

[ QUOTE ]
That combo actually looks pretty awesome IMO. I know it's unlikely, but I really hope they let that be.

[/ QUOTE ]

Why wouldn't they let it stand. It's basically a Trenchcoat. Are wings verboten when you have a Trenchcoat on?

And the NCSoft Store collapses under the strain...

EDIT: I got that error, but my card was charged. So I think it went through. Careful you don't accidentally buy 10 magic packs...

[/ QUOTE ]

ACK I GOT 3 CHARGES DUE TO THE ERROR PAGE.

[/ QUOTE ]

That's why I'm not going to try again. This is a scam. Submit your information a few times because the error tells you to and you aren't getting the product.

EDIT: WEll apparently you ARE getting the product. If you get that error page click on the My Account tab. There should be section about serial codes and a line that says you have X unused codes.

An error has occurred. Please try again. If this problem persists, please contact support@ncsoft.com

You can always restart an arc you accidentally misvoted on; revote; then quit. The newest and latest vote will count and the old vote will be thrown out.

[/ QUOTE ]

I could. but I didnt want to rate it in teh first place.

[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ]
As I understand it, you have to actually click 1 star then unclick it for the rating to be 0 stars.

[/ QUOTE ]

This. Tested and confirmed by dev chatter as to how someone can vote zero stars -- just leaving it blank won't do it, you have to pick a rating and then UN-pick it.

You'd think "well, who would do that?" and the answer is "some people are doing that", also confirmed. And it does pull your overall down pretty hard.

[/ QUOTE ]
I know I've done that on accident before I realised it counted as a 0 vote. I initially rated something that I hadn't finished and ended up thinking better of rating the thing until I got around to playing it again so I unclicked it and hit finish.

I've accidently 0 starred 2 arcs like that. 1 of them problably deserved it...

What I hate is the souvenir's are applied globally. I wouldmuch rather the souvenirs appear on teh character that actualyl earned htem. That way I can open up that page and get a sense of what that character has done.

I don't care if I receive them. I'm unlikely to respond to it. I never give a thank you comment. I only leave a comment if there is something I think the arc should improve on. If I am going to leave a comment and I enjoyed the arc I will tell the author as much when I send the comment. Heck usually I only send feedback comments I sorta liked and thought had potential. If it's an arc that is very poorly written or just random I'll just 1 or 2 star it before moving on.
