The one knee-deep in the pavement? Head-first?
-
Hmmph. Didn't think of using the extra quotes. Congratulations!
-
Had you already bought one of the premium ones before you claimed the free one? I'd be ecstatic if I was wrong. I wanted a basic basement for one character, to fit his backstory.
-
You and me both, man, you and me both. It's a computer, and we'll probably never know the exact why behind it. The one-key/loadfile versions also worked for me, so if you'd still like to be able to just hit "t" both times, try that again. Use the command forms you used above, and add the loadfile command at the end. Good…

In RPing, on some systems, if you put in a command like "/emote shakes his head wearily.", you get an output in the chatbox something like "tripph@tripph shakes his head wearily." thus getting a description of your action. That's part of what the OP's trying to accomplish.
-
Unfortunately, this appears not to be the case. I subscribed after playing for about a month, and decided to pick a hideout. I didn't like any of the free ones for the character I was on, so I bought one for that character. And now there's no free hideout option for any of my characters. It appears you lose the free option…

I did some testing this evening, and the results are very interesting: First I tested the costume change command: /bind ctrl+t "setactivecostume 0 1" /bind shift+t "setactivecostume 0 0" Both worked fine, as long as I've waited the required ten seconds minimum. Then I tried the flight command: /bind ctrl+t "+PowerTrayExec…
-
I'll try them myself this evening. Be a shame if you spent all this time and effort on something that simply doesn't work.
-
Long shot idea: Go into the costume editor, save each costume, then load a different one in each slot. Exit the editor, re-enter, load the correct costumes in each slot. Maybe, just maybe, that'll reset something at the far end that'll fix the costume changing. Good luck!
-
What if you recolor it and call it something else in your mind? I use Fire Flight colored blue on an Ice themed character, and it makes a pretty cool "Blizzard Flight". A color change can make a world of difference.
-
In your test bindfile, you are putting quotes around the command? For example: bind t "setactivecostume 0 1" (I know it's like asking "Is it plugged in?", but it's easy to forget the basics with a problem as vexing as this one. :) )
-
Stop working on villians with outrageous accents and give us more shrubbery!
-
Do you have any other character with multiple costumes you can test the command on? Does it work properly for them? I use the "SetActiveCostume 0 [slot]" form in my costume binds, and it works fine for me. Both "/SetActiveCostume 0 slot]" and "/SetActiveCostume 1 [slot]" also work in the chatbox for me, too. (Provided I…
-
Democratic Haggis knows the words. <ducking and running>
-
I just checked each of the commands in the CO-Wiki Console Command list, and it says the command is "SetActiveCostume 1 [slot]", not "SetActiveCostume 0 [slot]". Maybe that's the problem? (I'm not at home right now, so I can't check my own costume binds to confirm.)
-
Sell them to an NPC. Collections Officers will buy them, so will some other vendors. There's no reason to pass up free resources!
-
What response do you get when you run the "bind_load_file xnkland.txt" command directly?
-
Don't even need a separate queue. Window pops up while you're waiting. "Museum Heist - The Gladstone needs more Heroes! Would you like to join this event in progress?" If you don't click "Yes" within ten seconds, the window closes and goes to the next person queued, leaving you at your original place in the queue.
-
Ah HA! Got it! Costume slots are numbered from ZERO, not one. Assuming your flying costume is in your first slot, your fly text should use "setactivecostume 0 0", and your land text should use "setactivecostume 0 1". (Vice versa if your costumes are the opposite.) Change those, and all the rest should work. Even the emote.
-
Have you tried spelling out "emote"? To see if that makes any difference? (I know "e", "em" and "emote" are supposed to be synonyms, but we are dealing with a computer parsing the command, here. :) )
-
Yeah, I'm'a go with "Both!", too.
-
Thank you!
-
How do you find out a character's actual level in an Alert?
-
Thank you!
-
Okay, my second Pyramid Power alert, and I got lost. Everyone else went inside, and I saw the cutscene after they freed Ka, but I have no idea where to go from the street. Rather than leech, I told them I was lost, and left. Yeah, I know it's bad form, but they're busy. They don't have time to come fetch the noob and lead…
-
Not enough pouches on the bandoliers. Those flat ones down the front could be bigger. Only one row of pouches on the thighs? Seriously? His feet are too realistic! Put a random shape of solid color in front of them! You might have gone a little overboard on the teeth. Maybe. (Grin!)
-
A couple that I think are worthy of this thread: Arctic Foxx: Attractively dressed female character with ice powers. (I did bundle her up in parka and snowpants when I took her to Canada, though.) Fire Flight changed to an icy blue color works very well as her travel power. Dartique: Olympic archery champion who uses her…
-
Yes, thank you, I know about the keybinds panel. <grin!> I'm looking for a text file/list of the default keybinds. If I /unbindall, then do a /bindsavefile z:defaultkeys.txt, I get an empty file. (z: is a subst for the full path to my keybinds folder.) If I make changes, and then do a /bindsavefile, I only get the changed…
-
Hear, hear! There's no excuse for it when even the simplest spell checker would have flagged most of them. And proofreading is part of my job, which only makes them even more irksome.
-
Does anyone know of/have a list of all the default keybinds?
-
Not only animations, but costumes, too. You'd need a four-armed version of every single upper body piece. And a non-human body shape would lock out a lot of the costume pieces. "What do you mean my Thark can't have powered armor?!" "Why can't my Lamia have armor on her snake body?!" "My centaur's cape clips right through…
-
If the character is deleted, what happens? Does the slot stay silver FF? Then it should cost as much as buying a silver FF slot. Does it revert to an AT slot? Then it doesn't need to cost as much.
-
Roughbear, Zahinder, thank you both for the info.
-
Admittedly I'm relatively new, but I started doing alerts this weekend. And I don't understand the hate for lowbies. We're all bumped up (or down) to level 30, no? So isn't a level 6, say, doing as much damage as anyone else, albeit with only one or two attacks? What am I not understanding here?
-
Ran my first alerts today. And all I can say is "Wow!" What a rush! Ended up joining several. One timed one failed 'cause we didn't get the villain in time. The rest were fast and fun! I can see why so many people think they're the ONLY way to level. One of them a couple of people bailed, leaving just three of us, but we…
-
plbbbbttt! I enjoyed pugs on CoH. When they went well, they were awesome. And when they went badly, they always did so spectacularly! Thanks all for the tips!
-
And doesn't sometimes take a couple of seconds to display the rest of your characters, so you don't get that thrilling moment of "OMG, where are my characters?!"
-
I was told to just click "My Account" and it'd re-log me in automatically. So far that works perfectly.
-
Thanks for the tips!
-
I have already noticed that there seems to be only one route to level 15. And lots of posts advising against joining alerts before then. Are there alternatives to the established sequence for the early levels?
-
Drat. Oh well, thanks anyway!
-
The first amendment only says "Congress shall make no law ... abridging the freedom of speech...." It doesn't apply to private blogs/forums/etc. at all. You said in your first post that CO had "a lot of" dissatisfied customers. What portion of the current player base do you think is dissatisfied? And what are your sources…
-
Seriously? Dude, this is the 21st century! You're supposed to make JET noises! ;)
-
Tried to respond. Got a page error. Nodded knowingly, closed the page, deleted the email.
-
Alternate solution: Since they say they can't remove it from one game without removing it from all, then there should be human review of every instance of auto-ban to confirm it was valid, and punishment of all clearly abusive uses of it. A few 24-hour game bans, say, and the abuse would stop. (Yes, I can estimate how…
-
Yeah, that's clear from the forums. Just putting it on the list.
-
Slight modification suggestion: Keep the ability (so f2p can still ignore those who annoy them), but only ignores/spam reports from paid accounts count toward an auto-ban. Either way, though, this requires a modification to the existing system, and I doubt that's any easier than simply turning it off, which has already…
-
Without seeing the actual code, we have no way of knowing for sure how easy or difficult it is to change. It does have to be more than a simple counter, since there has to be some kind of time limit involved, too. "X number of reports within Y minutes", that sort of thing. Having done more than a little programming, I…
-
Cats and dogs living together and total chaos?
-
I take it there's no actual human review of chatbans to confirm they were valid, and to punish abusers?
