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.
Black Falcon has always been my Main. She went from Scrapper to Brute (I love brutes, jump in the middle of the mob and take en all out--half with just your damage shield)
lets see if this link works

Paladin has 2 different theme songs depending on my mood
This first one is from a commercial for the second edition of my Game. Hasn't seen the light of day in years
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7YndawLZwQ
This one is a song I found on youtube and fell in love with.
it doesn't have nearly enough likes so if you like it give it a click
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=We1_yDGGT8U&feature=related
If I could make a Paladin movie I'd want to use both of these songs.

My Brute listened to "Right Round" by Flo Rida. The beat worked well for Energy Melee.

Dread (Lucien Lockwood): my cyberpunk vigilante OC with terror inducing powers and a creepy alien form https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ktlm--6cJ_0 (I just plain love this song and I think it would fit him) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KprhbblarHU (This song is the best anti-hero/vigilante song you can find out there)
Gravemire (Sebastian Greene): My necromancer hero/anti-hero https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gub1OfAPeyc (this song fits him quite well considering his backstory)
Deluder (Alexander Dietz): my genetically spliced vigilante whom was broken by sadistic scientists and was going to be remolded into a weapon https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qj8d1bIu3kw

For Brand X, while I think there's quite a few that work, right now I go with...
[url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Gcrx2Ab0FM]Keep Holding On[/url] by Avril Lavigne Not quite the action song for the living weapon of war turned masked crime fighter of justice...but I just think it fits her :)
Although I never really thought of Redlynne as having a themesong ... in retrospect, if I had to pick one ... to properly honor the [b]Vow of Violence[/b] in her bio I'd probably have to go with something like this as being [i]highly appropriate[/i] ...

It would be hard to choose but my Main Kiyori Anoyui's theme song would either be
Jibun Rock by One Ok Rock
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTkXe60AP8M
Or
Departure! by Masatoshi Ono
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1YHr_CUiJ8
Not sure how to put a youtube video in the post but one of my toons Lightning Shok, a regen/claw scrapper theme song would be
Duality Remix by Bayside
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FkebYb9jgOI
One of my alts Green Thumb's theme song would be
Yatta! Yatta! by the Green Leaves

True ... but the Emily Browning cover of it for Sucker Punch is filled with such sadness and sorrow that it's a much more heartbreaking rendition. Depends on whether you want to get your blood pumping and rock out ... or whether you want to cry and mourn I guess. Redlynne was more of a tragic hero than a shining example of one, so the Emily Browning version gets the nod in this case of being a better fit for a personal soundtrack.

One of my mains, Stellar Flair, has the theme song of I Want Out by Helloween ( https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=FjV8SHjHvHk )
Gaining powers and becoming a superhero let her get out from under the thumb of her rather domineering mother and her unrealistic expectations and to live her own life.
never really thought about it...but I suppose I would go with just about it all for the series. :p good stuff maynard and perfect for background music too...hits just about all the "notes" I would be looking for.
I also would tend to stay away from music with lyrics as it can become dated.

I have a LOT of theme songs, depending on my mood at the time.
Right now (for some reason), this is the current one.

Something about the sound of Juke Box Hero always made me want to get dressed in my costume and run across the rooftops to it. But I'd want something else to play once the fight started.

You're welcome, Nina! That group has become a favorite of mine and I just loved the message.
I mean, it's super-dramatic when the hero shows up and says, "Come with me, if you want to live!" and a bit silly-dramatic if he says, "Here I come to save the day!" But it's just really nice when he says, "Everything will be okay."
That doesn't even require a 'super' hero.
And I was tempted to nominate "Flash! ah-ahh! He'll save everyone of us!" too.
Be Well!

[i]Has anyone seen my mind? It was right here...[/i]
Not sure which of my characters is right for this song. Maybe all of them. This is not an "I'm more badass than Batman" or "Monster Death-Killer" song. This is more of a 'Transcendent Hero' song, so maybe it's 'Perfect Perry' or 'Starlight Saint'.

I actually find this song a better fit for my necromancer hero/anti-hero then the previous one I put up.
Here's a little summary to explain how this song would fit Gravemire quite well.
Gravemire (Sebastian Greene) was a former apprentice of a sadistic necromancer who wanted to mold him into his image. He tortured him routinely for a lengthy amount of time, one of the torture sessions involved forcing him to sharpen his own teeth crudely with a rock and another involved a huge amount of blood magic (which ended up giving Sebastian PTSD, when it's triggered he starts seeing blood everywhere...leaking out multiple things.)
The only thing that kept him from loosing his sanity was his determination to escape even if it killed him. Eventually he did escape of course but it did irrevocably change him. His parents were murdered so he had to live on streets for some time. He kept himself alive by stealing from some criminals before one of my older heroes found him (mind you he was 13 when he was kidnapped and in the James Duncan Highschool RP thread he is 16, by the time City of Titans takes place he would be 20).
One of his flaws/boons is the determination he has for helping others at the extent of his own health. He does not want anyone else to suffer like he did
Dammit, now I kind wish I could of gone back and handled his participation in that thread better since I have more experience and acquired some knowledge on a more proper way to do his dialogue.
Aw well...he was my first character concept after all.

I never really thought of having a theme song, but after reading this thread, the first one that comes to mind is "Going Out West" by Tom Waits.
"I know Karate. Voodoo too
I'm going to make myself available to you.
I don't need no make up
I got real scars
I got hair on my chest
I look good without a shirt"
...
"I don't lose my composure
in a high-speed chase
My friends say I'm ugly
I got a masculine face.
I got some dragstrip courage
I can really drive a bed
I'm gonna change my name to Hannibal
Or maybe just Rex"

This is the theme of my hero gone bad, Captain Kaboom. He is far more noble than you would think.
I found his old write up and posted in in Backstory. With picture goodness.
