STO GATEWAY SITE

in Windows and General: PC, Network, and Other Technical Issues
Log in to the gateway site. Goes to character select screen. Select character. Screen goes black and nothing happens. Not sure what happened, but Gateway doesn't seem to be working today.

I wanted to look at the Accolades section there, since it isn't nearly as frigged up and confusing as the list in the game itself.

They need to fix that, too, btw. The accolades page is a mess. Can't find anything on it...

    The gateway is pretty much defunct and not being worked on any more at this point. So far there hasn't been a word from a dev that this could change any time soon.

    Figured that much. Only wondered what the deal was with the black screen, since I could access that part only 2 days ago.

    It's most likely a bug related to TOS toons, and I'm not sure if they're planning on fixing it.

    I wrote about a workaround in another thread if you still want to use the Gateway:

    or in-game loadscreen time-outs?
    The Gateway has always been a bit problematic with timeouts and soft locks that requires you to reload the page a couple of times before loading the character properly. It's been like that since launch for me.

    TOS characters isn't working at the moment since it's missing a required stylesheet for the faction. A workaround for the black screen you may get when trying to load one of your new character of this faction, is to use another faction's stylesheet in its place.

    For users of Firefox or Chrome the quickest way to load another factions style is to open the Developer Tools (Ctrl+Shift+i) and under the Console tab enter: 
    $(document.head).append('<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://gateway.startrekonline.com/css/style-fed.css">');

    EDIT: Oh, you were the author of that thread as well. Sorry, missed that.
