The Big Giant Icon Thread

[Dinah Might]

Sorry I am slightly late to the party.

Is there any way to load (or "Spawn") user created characters instead of NPC's?

[Gothenem]

Hey Codewalker, is there a way you can get Icon to allow spawning of character created toons, via a .costume file?

Also, am I the only sad person here who started to repopulate Atlas Park with the normal NPC's?

[Sugoi]

Statespam?

Spamsman?

Marcus Spam?

Spamus Cole?

C'mon, work with me here. ;)

Looks like Cole Slaw to me...

I don't know if I want them around... they were pretty pushy.

I was thinking the same thing, i think it would be pretty easy to set up a private server for CoH-Icon and as long as we don't make any money off of it we should be fine legally....right?

Short Answer, No.

Long Answer, No.
The courts have ruled that  even if you do not earn money or charge any one for one cent, it is still  violation of copyright if you use someone else's intellectual property without their specific consent. This does not address Trademark infringement which is subject to more rigorous enforcement and restrictions for proper use.

Practically, if a right holder never heard about the violation they would be unable to send a C&D letter. Such a Server would to be PRIVATE, unadvertised, and undiscussed.

(No, I don't know of any private servers. Wish I did)

[MWRuger]

Codewalker,

Just realized I never thanked you for your hard work. I suspect that if we ever get an Offline COH or private servers, it will be built on the base of your hard work. Even if that never happens, this is a significant achievement and you are to be congratulated.

I think that what would have to happen to make an Offline COH would be to create a small emulated network with the server side running as a single machine and the client "logging in" to server via emulation. No idea how that could be written.

I'll work on a close-up in a demo but

Close-up in a costume file:
*snipped for load times*

That's awesome!

[Dinah Might]

Yeah.... Codewalker is awesome.

I don't know whether to love him or hate him.  I love him because I can see myself in Paragon City again, but I hate him because he has given me "Hope".  I now visit this thread EVERY DAY, almost SEVERAL TIMES a day to see what advancements he has made.   I hang on to his every word!

That being said, why doesn't Titan Icon have it's on section on the forums similar to the games being developed?

I love you Codewalker... or hate you ... but mostly love you.

No, I am in now trying to repopulate Atlas. 

[downix]

A way to save the NPC's state would be next I'll assume.

[Tacitala]

I had things to do today.

Important things like laundry and dishes and cleaning the bathroom.

But, no... this is going to be me:

(Thank you for all of your hard work.  It's not an at home server for me to play solo on, but it's allowed me to have a part of the fun of the game back <3 )

[Codewalker]

Not yet. One idea I have for this is to enable the /tailor command (though this will require hacking out the cost check since you have 0 influence) and adding a way to spawn an NPC clone of your own costume.

Icon 1.6

Happy 6 months since D-Day.   :/

Thank you again for the awesome work.

Again, thanks for the hard work.

I've been attempting the /spawn_npc command but the only ones that work for me are the three examples that Codewalker gave. I pulled up the list of Model Names but I cant get any to work. What am I doing wrong?

[Zombie Man]

running version 1.6 and have seen pics of people using emotes like bow but they don't work for me...am i missing something?

Reread all of the first two posts of this thread which Codewalker keeps updating. You need to use the /mov command for emotes and use the internal name of the emotes. Relevant part...

/mov [name]
Default keybind: None
Makes your character play an animation. The animation should be specified in the same format as MOV commands from demorecords. You can find a full list here.

Are you giving them names?

:P

First NPC spawned was Ms Liberty (like 50% of everybody I guess). Second was Lusca in Prometheus Park (that's another story).

I feel less alone now. Our city is slowly coming back to life.
You remember that video?

I really feel like we are in the reconstruction; thanks to codewalker and everybody working on the different projects out there.

Spot on. Thanks!
