I hope you're compiling a list then, friend!

:)

Haven't been keeping track, no.  :-[

Flying around and looking at what I've spawned...I had a write-up all written here and was gonna post pictures, but decided Tumblr albums would be easier.  WARNING: My Tumblr theme contains some NSFW words, and browse the rest of my posts at your own potential peril.

As I was writing this post, the client popped up with the message about logging you out for inactivity.  Interesting, I would have thought that would be a server-side thing/

Thank you once again, Codewalker.  It's so nice to be able to fiddle around with a reasonable chunk of the game again.

Also, it finally allowed me to make Mr. G. and The Center stand next to each other long enough to verify something.

Wow.  Nice

Zombie Man I'm gonna have nightmares about statesman now.

[Codewalker]

The giant Avatar of Hamidon was used in some of the new I24 arcs on beta; several could be seen rampaging through the ruins of Praetoria on the horizon.

The Arachnos BCUs and Longbow Mender clockwork were introduced to the factions for I24 as well -- "salvaged" Praetorian tech.

I believe the powered prisoners were part of the Brickstown changes or possibly the zone event.

Council War Walkers showed up in Provost Marchand's mid-level arc.

The Arachnos Devoured I believe showed up as a minor sub-plot in the Dark Astoria arcs.

For some reason I cannot find my cityofheroes.exe file. Yet I've never changed anything. What do I do?

[Florian145]

sooooo, I just found this program.   AWESOME!!!!!! 

[goodtime]

For some reason I cannot find my cityofheroes.exe file. Yet I've never changed anything. What do I do?

In windows look for

Program Files/City of Heroes/ or
Program Files/NCSoft/City of Heroes/ or
Program Files (x86)/City of Heroes/ or
Program Files (x86)/NCSoft/City of Heroes/ or
\steam\steamapps\common  (if you downloaded it from Steam)

[Rabgix]

I managed to get it to work, but I have to use the link in this forum every time. And do it a lot too since my computer's graphics would make parts disappear over time.

I used to have that nightmare all the time before "Jack" left CoH...

[BenshowSly]

Wonderful Work once again from Codewalker. It's a wonderful feature.

Though, I was wondering... Am I the only one that wishes they would all be where they should be originally without me placing them? (Not a critic to Codewalker... Just saying eventually, I hope it is where we are going :) )

But then you took an ED to the knee?

[MisterMagpie]

Why yes, Darkgob, I would like a petite lap Nemesis.


edit: that sounded less filthy when I thought it sounded like a clear reference to a petite lap giraffe.

[Megajoule]

I'm pretty sure I've said this before, but it bears repeating:
Thank you so much, Codewalker.  You are awesome.

I NEED AN ADULT  :gonk:

Neat things I learned that everyone might not know...

Some spawns have effects that remain stationary to where you summoned them even if you move the spawned npc. For instance, Hamidon's membrane stays wherever you summoned him even if you move him (leaving a giant, green jello behind) but if you delete that instance of Hamidon the abandoned membrane will vanish with him. The Nemesis warhorse is entirely a visual effect that remains in the same place even if you move its invisible, collidiable anchor around. The Witch Rift also leaves it's visual appearance behind, however the sound effects will move along with the anchor.

The anti-gravity wells from the shadow shards and the ski slopes can be summoned (ss_launcher_01) and they ACTUALLY WORK. If you summon one without nocoll active it will throw you way up in the air. The gravity well doesn't seem to leave an anchor you can target, so you can't move or delete them.

Not all of the mov commands work on I23 but some of them do!

Some of the mov commands will cause the targeted npc to delete. Transform, for example, makes them turn into... nothing.

The biggest npc that I could spawn appears to be the Rikti Destroyer. It's about the same size as the crashed ship in the Rikti War Zone.

[Bitters]

Has anyone else played around with changing values in your saved costume files? You can now log into the game without some restrictions, like body size, just to let everyone know.

Finally found my password for this site. :p

Anyways, I have a question about the downloadable source code.  Unless I missed it, I have no clue where to put the source code or what good it is for.  I have been enjoying Icon 1.6 without it, but I still need my curiosity satisfied.

So, how do I post a picture here?  This picture is of Ghost Widow and company preparing to attack the Rikti ship in RWZ.  My widow is in the picture as well.

[Blacjac84]

I found it.  Photobucket changed things around. :p
