Mids' Hero Designer v1.940

[Diellan]

Sorry it took so long, but between figuring out how to get Interface to work properly in Mids and running the new trials... But here you go!

Mids' Hero/Villain Designer v1.940

Mids' Hero/Villain Designer 1.94 - May 2011

New features:

• Incarnate slots for Issue 20 fully supported!

Fixes & changes

• Vigilance should work properly.
• Mastermind summon powers now respect endurance reduction.
• Build import and load has been altered to have a greater tolerance for corrupted save files. In many case that previously caused an error message, it will now simply try and drop the bad powers and load the rest of the build. This should help with issues resulting from save files created using the bad Epic Powers update in 1.91 and the Unofficial Fitness patch.

Known Issues

• Windows Vista and Windows 7 have issues with the updater due to UAC interfering with writing to the Program Files folder. Many of these problems can be resolved by (a) installing as Administrator, (b) running Mids as Administrator, or (c) installing Mids to a different location than the Program Files folder.
• Diminishing Returns for PvP mode have not yet been added, all buffs currently show their full, unmodified values.
• The Power Graphs for the current build do not display effects for pseudo-pet powers like Ice Storm. This does not affect the Powerset Comparison, which is now fully aware of pseudo-pets.
• 60 Month Vet reward button not added.  This means taking a Tier 3 travel pool power at level 6 or higher is automatic for everyone.  You need to know whether or not you are eligible for this reward or you must take your travel power at level 14 or higher.
• Power Boost affects some powers that should ignore its buffs, such as Ice Shields.
• Temporary and Accolade powers are not being affected by buffs such as recharge rate.
• Alignment and, consequentially, Accolade powers will not load from saved builds.

Thanks for this! Alas (by pure unluck) the very first build I tried to open in 1.940 failed (all other builds I've tried to load work normally). It's a Bane Spider VEAT and when I try to load the file I get:

Unable to read data - Unable to read beyond the end of the stream.

Ideas? I'll be happy to send the file in question if that helps.

[Diellan]

Yes, please either send us the file or simply open the file in Notepad and post it here inside a CODE block. The changes I made to error handling should be preventing the Unable to read data message, but you might have some specific case that I missed.

[Gibbering]

File sent to your gmail, let me know if there are any problems receiving it.

Thanks!

EDIT: here's the Notepad version

OK, either I'm an idiot or I missed patch note (or both), but how do I access the Incarnate stuff?  I turned on the button at the top so it says "Incarnate (On)".  Now what?

Thanks

[LKN-351]

is there any perticular reason that this new mids vers didnt make it in the headlines?

[Aggelakis]

OK, either I'm an idiot or I missed patch note (or both), but how do I access the Incarnate stuff?  I turned on the button at the top so it says "Incarnate (On)".  Now what?

Double-click the Incarnate button.

[Iridar]

Double-click the Incarnate button.

D'oh!  Thanks.

[Diellan]

is there any perticular reason that this new mids vers didnt make it in the headlines?

Yes. And that reason is that I forgot to put it there.

>.>

[DeProgrammer]

Oops. I would have reminded you, but I assumed you were just taking forever to post it like last time.  ;D

[Diellan]

Thanks for this! Alas (by pure unluck) the very first build I tried to open in 1.940 failed (all other builds I've tried to load work normally). It's a Bane Spider VEAT and when I try to load the file I get:

Unable to read data - Unable to read beyond the end of the stream.

Ideas? I'll be happy to send the file in question if that helps.

I found this, and the problem is a bug I introduced that happens on any build with Single Shot. I'll publish a new version of Mids later this week to fix it.

[CoffeeChicago]

Hi everybody, this is my first post here so don't bash me if this has already been brought up please  ;D
I got a question about the incarnate and accolade section.
I know you can toggle them on and off in the Mid's designer, but is there a way to separate the toggle for accolades and incarnate that are on automatically and ones that are a power button? For example the Atlas Medallion is and accolade that is on all the time, and Geas of the Kind Ones is a power button, and same with the incarnates.
So if I want to see the states for the auto ones without the power button accolades I can do this. ???
BTW I love the Hero/Villain designer and have been using it for a long time, so thanks for all your hard work here at Titan network  ;D

[CoffeeChicago]

Don't feel bad, I was beating my head on the desk trying to find the accolades till I came here to read the form lol
