  1. Welcome to the asylum, SSk!

    Leave you straight jacket at the door.
  2. Awesome, Caem, congratulations!

    I totally dig the 'retro' look of them.

    A happy day!

    That's great, Clobbertime! I love the 'I'm at the pointy end' perspective.


    Do I see Lusca making a cameo? LOL
  4. If you're talking about the secondary colour not applying to the shield itself (not the emblem), then it's broken and a known issue.

    I'll check, but this most likely isn't the problem.
    When I see "Looks fine in the Costume Editor, but not in-game" my first suspect is SG Mode. I will typically go into SG settings and make sure.

    I've been playing for 2 1/2 years and it still catches me sometimes.

    As of now, for some reason my my male model my secondary foot costume color isn't working. It is remaining the same as my primary. Can this be fixed?

    Thanks

    P.S. More details. The secondary color shows up in the character creation, but when I show up in actual play the secondary is the same as the base.

    Update: I when and tried to re-use the samurai boots and after paying out even more inf to change them a 3rd time my secondary colors of my boots are working for the samurai boots at least. Don't know whats going on here, but I hope I don't have to do this every time I want to change boots now.

    I have tried turning off the game and re-started it, but that doesn't change anything.
    Did you check your SG colour selections?

    People are using the term "pre-order" and pre-purchase" interchangeably. With regards to the Tier 3 access to GB Closed Beta, if you have purchased GR through NCSoft's Online store, then you are eligible for GR Closed Beta.

    Nowhere does it state an which wave any of the Tiers will be getting in on, it could be the 1st wave, or the 20th wave. Because we do not know the criteria in which Paragon Studios uses in selecting testers, someone who does not qualify for any of the Tiers could still get invited, or a 60+ month Vet could get an invite on the last wave.

    It basically becomes a waiting game for those of us that wanting to test GR.

    The trick is to open some image editing program first, then go into CoH, then alt-tab back to the Image App (like MSPaintbrush) and drag it down or to the side, just so that its still showing on screen (and thus still has focus) yet it isn't covering up the part of the COH screen you want (like, say, your character)

    and then, hit print-screen - while the image app still has "focus" - then drag it back up into view and Paste (either Cntrl-C or pull down its edit menu) and save it as normal for that application.

    Its a little more tedious than the Snipping Tool, but if the Snipping Tool isn't happening for you - this other method worked fine for me.
    Yep, I used to do that before the Snipping Tool was pointed out, so much so that I posted directions...

    Same for me, 100% get this sound when I log in, not so sure about zoning though. I'll make note of the instances.
  13. It's like watching an accident in slow motion, you want to look away, but can't.
  14. I said it on your DA page and I'll say it again here. That was flippin' hilarious, Pyro.
  15. I love the Snipping Tool (ST), but I have found that it can be flaky saving the image in the ST, so I will past the image ST took into Paint or some other program and save it there for editing later.

    Unless of course you mean he had a DD on 3/7/10... in which case ya, hold off on the nominating :P
    Yep, his 'Size Doesn't Matter' got a DD on that date. So I saved what I had written as a draft and will send it off next month.

    I had to hunt down the process for nominating a DD, and one of the DA Mods has an easy step-by-step Tute for it. Suggesting DD's, so if you think that someone's art truly deserves a DD, this is how you go about it.
  17. I was writing up a DD nomination For BAKART, when I found that he had one nominated 3/7/10, so any further nominations will have to wait until next month. (As their guideline says they won't give a DD to someone who's had one within 3 months.)

    I'll just have to save that note until later.
  18. Same here, I even updated my sound drivers. No change.

    It depends on how many costume slots you have open on that character, so a character will be awarded anywhere form 1 token to 5 each time they are passed out.
  20. It could also be a buff/debuff from friend or foe. ie: Increase Density gives you a -Speed.

    The first sign of recovery is admitting to a problem. I just cant find anything as durable as my tankers. Defenders are just to squishy. Scrappers fear where tankers trod.

  22. It's very good to know that you are at least feeling better, JK. Here's to hoping that the trend continues.

    I would like to mention, that I am copying from Justice, and succesfully copied toons over on friday.
    How many character's do you have on test at the moment?

    I've seen where if you do not have any of the original slots open, then it causes problems, even if you have 'purchased' more slots.
  24. Happy Hatching Day, Hulkers!




  25. Pum, did you get anyone to look at this?

    I hopped on my MM (though she's only level 7,) grabbed a radio with a clickie and repeated the steps you listed above. My pets summoned as usual.
