a new Q1 Developer update is live. Take a moment, and check it out.
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.
I can only imagine how many other fellow backers are staring at their e-mails like a dog watching a mail slot like me right now!
Look foreward to break... I mean thoughrally testing the stuffing out of the Avatar builder and more!
So break out the magnifying glasses and tweezers people, its bug hunting season >:3
I know you said emails would start going out within n two weeks, and obviously from others' subsequent posts they have. I understand why you won't be doing them all at once, to ease download and connection strain. Do you have a timeframe that you anticipate all original KS backers will have received emails (subject to change based on ongoing testing of course)?
This looks backwards, to me, but I'm not a programmer. If the folder is named "C:\Windows\System32" why am I replacing the mfc140u.dll that's already there with the 64=bit file, and why is the 32-bit file going into the WOW64 folder, presumably replacing the file that should already be there?
Also, I just looked, and the System 32 Folder DOES have a file named mfc140u.dll (no caps) and the WOW64 folder does not.

SysWow64 is the 32 bit folder.

WoW64 is short for “Windows 32 bit on Windows 64 bit”. It’s where 32 bit files go in a 64 bit operating system so that Windows has what it needs to be backward compatible with 32 bit applications. Yes the acronym sucks, you’d think it should be W32oW64 but what are you gonna do, it’s Microsoft.
System32 meanwhile is basically the core part of the Windows OS. If Windows was a car, System32 would be the powertrain. The reason why it’s called System32 is also for backwards compatibility; programs were written to look there for core components and if Microsoft renamed it then it would cause problems. Since leaving it alone did no harm that’s what they did.
So that’s why the names seem to be the opposite of what they should be.
The issue is that the data could be intercepted, the better version is hardware multi-factor authentication but that's not gonna happen in a business to customer application. I know a lot of banks are still using SMS MFA and I haven't seen any signs of them changing their methods so if it's good enough for banks ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Windows Defender is as usefull as other antivirus, if not even more ;) Just activate and customize it, it will be enought.

I've never found that to be the case. I usually recommend AVG and Malwarebytes. McAfee is kinda crummy and Norton is a PITA.

What Homecoming server are you playing on?
I'm mainly on TB.
After following the advice of Dr. Tyche and Warcabbit, I can now happily report that I got the launcher to install, load, run, and patch last night, Yay!. I had to check on it after patching at like 1:45am, but it worked. Actually, after downloading the 4-hour long patch, I clicked "start" or whatever to run it and it then immediately told me it had to download the U4-necessary "Redistriutable for Visual C++ 2017" files. Sheesh. But it ran, ultimately, after much installing, patching, and rebooting. So thanks for that.

Have fun.

Congratulations guys! Good to see this finally coming together after so many years.
*continues checking email several times a day*
Until after now...
Glad I checked back in to see all the new news. Good work and, particularly, good perseverance.
Gimme' that email.
Puny Heroes.
YES! That redestributiable was the key thing.

Whoa, anyone notice the ominous "Seven..." up top?
Noticed it when I was editing a character bio. Brought it up in the fan Discord, looks like the AB might be releasing soon? We'll have to wait and see.

Hey can I get a link to this Discord?

Thanks man.
This is exciting. I can't wait to become a second chancer. I didn't even know this existed back then, and even then I'd be too broke to support it, so this is really good for me.
It's not big and red. Hmm...
Only SEVEN more years...

Which would not even put us in the top 5 for longest game development.

Yup.
I'm wondering if they have some Halloween themed thing happening or if it's completely unrelated to the fact that "Mischief Night" is in 7 days.
Until after now...
I'm not sure when your Mischief Night is, but mine is traditionally October 30.
Several times a day? Lucky you.
I'm home on vacation and had planned to spend the whole week playing Xenoverse2.
Now I'm checking my emails every 5-10 minutes.
This is neither fun or relaxing.

or 7 weeks till they put combat in the game, or war cabbit ate 7 donuts and seven cinnamon rolls and is zooming around his back yard like a nascar racer. the cryptic meme gets old real fast, and is very easy to go places you had no intention of going.
Quess we'll have to wait and see if it says SIX by tomorrow.

I recommend interrupting your refresh cycle occasionally (at least once) to check that Kickstarter has your correct email address and that MWM is permitted to pass your spam filter. ^_^

tbh I'm kinda worried that I already got and accidentally deleted it when I cleaned up the 200+ new emails that had accumulated over time.

In that case, I'd recommend watching your email until next Thursday, and if it doesn't show up send a dev a pm asking for a resend.

YEP, this about captures it!

So, here's the deal...
I was embarrassingly wrong.
I have no idea how I looked at a calendar and arrived at that faulty conclusion.
Thanks!
Until after now...
Out of curiosity, is your Kickstarter page still open for donations?

Compulsively clicking the refresh button until the next update.
Thankfully, we got Second Chance coming up.
in Six days !' or five , depending on where you are :D )

I'm refreshing my email! 🤭
Got a feeling I'm gonna be on the last wave getting into this heh.
Puny Heroes.
Same think I am going to be on the last wave as well, just bit worried cause I had some issues with email before cause I switch it from one email to another... really hope that's not it.
I am super excited to start playing with the creator seeing what characters I can make :)
Don't feel bad guys. I have to join the 2nd chance and only then can I get in line...
[img]https://s15.postimg.cc/z9bk1znkb/Black_Falcon_Sig_in_Progess.jpg[/img]
Hmmm. I don't even remember what level I donated at. I have no idea if I am in line or not.
In you shoes, I'd sign in on KS and find out. ^_^
Actually, I'm not in your shoes, and I still do that every so often. ^_^

Once you are signed in, how can you tell what level you donated at?
EDIT: Apparently my current Kickstarter account has no way to know that I backed this project. Hopefully Missing Worlds Media knows who I am and how to get ahold of me, but I am not 100% sure that is true.
So, step one: Find out what email you used on the account you used for CoT. Since you have a K-badge, I have hope that MWM can help you with that. Or maybe in step four.
Step two: Open the KS webpage at https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/missingworldsmedia/the-phoenix-project-city-of-titans/description This should have "Campaign" highlighted on the bar that says
"[u]Campaign[/u] FAQ Updates Comments Community" This line should be visible at the bottom of your screen if you're scrolled all the way up; if you are scrolled all the way up and you don't see it, scroll down a bit.
Right below that line, to the far right, should be a column labeled "Support" with a box below that that says: "You Selected". Based on what you've said, it won't be there, so scroll up to the top right, click your account icon and sign out.
Step three: Click the Login Button where your account icon was, and then the "forgot your password" button. Enter the right email address, and good luck!
Step four: If this didn't work, then hopefully MWM has their own records, from when the KS payments were collected.

First: Thanks for the detailed and excellent advice. I greatly appreciate it.
Second: Unfortunately Step 3 can't work for me. The reason I have a new email address, different from the one I used when we all first kickstarted this was that the small company that provided my email address stopped providing that service. That email address literally doesn't exist anymore, so I can't go to that spot and retrieve information from a password reset.
Third: I believe I worked this out with MWM at some point, hence my current badge status, but I cannot remember any details. I suppose it is time for me to check that.
Ugh I sympathize. That happened to me twice. My first email address I ever had (almost 30 years ago) was through my local library. They stopped offering that, so I scrambled to get a new one, and found a free service from Apple. Apple then decided to make that a (not cheap) paid service so I had to switch again. Luckily I’ve managed to keep the same email account for 20 years now (knock on wood).
I'm not sure if I got the email or not. At this time it seems like I have not, any ETA? I know it is a slow roll out I just hope I didn't miss it since I pledged for two copies. >-<;
Have a nice day!
You haven't missed anything yet. Keep an eye on the announcements.

Thank you! Have a nice day! <3
Have a nice day!
I did not receive an email..thought I contributed enough..will all backers get access to the code drop coming up?
CoH addict for 8+ years...and counting
They said they would start sending out codes. They didn't say when they would be done. I haven't gotten one either. I presume they are sending them in waves, in part to load test the servers. And let's see what their big reveal today is.
To borrow a phrase from Oprah...
Wait until you see the... nope, that would ruin the surprise.
which one?
