Please read the current update for instructions on downloading the latest update. Players with Mac versions of the game will not be affected, but you will have a slightly longer wait for your version of the new maps. Please make a copy of your character folder before running the new update, just to make sure you don't lose any of your custom work.

It looks like we can give everyone a list of minimum specs for running City of Titans. Please keep in mind that this is 'for now' until we are able to add more graphics and other system refinements. Currently you will need :
Windows 10 or later required; no Intel integrated graphics like UHD, must have AMD or NVIDIA card or discrete chipset with 4Gb or more of VRAM
At least 16GB of main DRAM.
These stats may change as we continue to test.

To purchase your copy of the City of Titans Launcher, visit our store at https://store.missingworldsmedia.com/ A purchase of $50 or more will give you a link to download the Launcher for Windows or Mac based machines.

Welp, I learned something new.

I've seen where Devs have used animation bones to implement breast jiggle in other games. But as far as "strange mental images" go the way those bones are designed (in the animation tools) always vaguely remind me of little T-Rex arms attached to the chests of the female body model. Obviously these little bones don't end up looking like arms once the body models appear in the actual games, but it's still funny to think of these digital females running around with mini arm bones flailing under their rendered chests. ;)

... velociraptor flails at you with her fleshy 'arms', screeching in fury, then bites your head off...

It sounds positively Greek.

It is sometimes a challenge to keep a straight face and read this forum at work. "Yes Boss I'm definitely working very hard on the task that I am working on right now" *eye twitch, snort*

To build a moment on my earlier statement:
By itself, a 3d mesh is a hard object, immovable, unchanging. To get something to change, you have two main avenues available inside of Unreal: vertex morphing (the reshaping of polygons) and bones. Morphs are limited to what you calculate out while creating the model. Bones however can be hard, or soft, and even in between, which is why they are so popular. So, a ball flattens when it bounces off a surface, you need a soft bone. The computer calculates out how the bone inside the ball reacts, then transfers that data to the mesh on the outside. When you have precalculated changes, morphs are easier on the GPU, so you find them used for things such as people's faces in SWTOR when they talk. When you need to calculate it on the fly, like the motion of a cape flapping in a random wind pattern, it is a lot easier to use a bone.
So, on the "jiggle" factor which is the topic here, soft bones would be needed.

Hi Doctor Tyche!

I just wanted to thank you for weighing in on this important topic. It makes me happy that my thread is still motivating interest in this area.

You seem dedicated in making the game more like CoX and not so much like CO!

Well this thread only stayed necro'd for 5 weeks that time...

Sure it was the OP who bumped it this time, but I still have to wonder if this thread will ever die. ;)

Not possible. Jiggle physics ensure that this thread will always bounce back up again.

Oh, come on! It was the second-from-the-top post in the forum when I replied to it. You can't say I am necroing something if I am replying to a thread which is the second most recent thread on the whole forum!

It at least needs to get to the point where it is on the second page of the forum before you can make a plausible claim of necroing...

Edit: Now that I think on it, I might have actually been replying to the most recent post on this forum. Instead of the second most recent... Regardless, accusations of necroing threads are obviously inaccurate!

PS: So let me enjoy the CoX breasts and stop trying to give me saggy CO breasts already! And get off my lawn, you kids!!!

LOL please! You were just the latest in a long line of necromancers. This thread has been brought back from the dead at least 6 or 8 times - the longest it was down was like well over half a year. If you bother to review this thread you'll see there's been a lot of "debate" on this topic and there have been people who have claimed this issue is not "important" enough for the Devs to pay attention to. Clearly the fact that this thread continues to resurface proves that's probably not the case.

Hi Lothic!

I guess I just didn't like the necromancy claims when I was posting on a thread that was one of the top threads of this forum. I am sorry if I offended you.

Long live perky (and not saggy) breasts,
Nennafir

PS to the devs: They don't have to be huge, just not saggy...

It's funny to think that one of the world's most famous bridge engineers spent that much time applying serious physics to figuring out how strapless evening gowns work. I guess that means no matter how smart and well respected you are you're just going to end up day-dreaming about "breastesess" in whatever terms you're most comfortable with.

Hopefully the CoT Devs can apply some of the same "attention to detail" in this area as the author of this article did.

Also his moobs, but we don't talk about that in front of the big guy, he's kinda sensitive.

Summary: "Men prefer shapely, perkier boobs to those that are the largest."

Hopefully some dev somewhere is taking note. Perky breasts are definitely the norm as far as comic books go. Only villains would have CO saggy breasts...

Was Champions Online a success? I hope people are taking note!!! Please, this is issue is very important. It is as important as hunger/malnutrition in third world countries.

Perky New Year. Or at least the rest of the year.

I think that report is a little biased. They only took half the population into account. As has been clearly stated in this thread and another women have very strong opinions about the size shape and jiggle of breasts too.
