CoH Offline Character Generator

Tue, 2006-01-17 07:45 — loki77
Man, if we had an awesome tag this story would get it. NCSoft, the makers of City of Heroes, released a tool to generate characters outside of the game in Korea. Someone figured out how to hack it so that it's text is in english. You can grab [the program itself here.](http://drives.daboyz.org/mike/CCC_Setup.exe "Wooot") . Once it's installed, follow these docs: * Open the Registry Editor -- Start, Run, regedit (for XP, I think W2K users want regedt32 instead) * Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER, Software, Cryptic, KRCOH * In the right-hand pane, double-click and change the Locale value to 0 * In the left-hand pane, right-click on KRCOH and select Permissions * Click Advanced, then Add * Type 'Everyone' (no quotes) and hit OK * Tick Set Value for "Full Access" - Deny * Click OK, Yes, OK, and close the editor. Woot woot!

When you run it, is it

When you run it, is it supposed to be all crazy moon languagey? If not, maybe you have a link to the Korean one becuase when I try and instal it nothing looks like english. And I am dumb. "If you can't be a good example then you'll just have to be a terrible warning." -Catherine Aird

Dumb

I'm gonna go with the dumb. Try following the directions. I'm guessing that part where you set LOCALE to 0, in your registry is important.

No. Before that when you are

No. Before that when you are instaling it. "If you can't be a good example then you'll just have to be a terrible warning." -Catherine Aird

When you’re installing it

When you're installing it it's all crazy moon language. You just have to go by 'feel' to get in installed. It's pretty easy- every program on windows tends to ask the same questions when it installs.

After that's done, I've found that you need to actually one the program once for it to install the registry keys- THEN you can follow the instructions above on how to get it into english.

I just wish they had all the CoV options in it. There's so many cool ones in CoV. I don't understand why they have seperate character generators. Ho's.
