Re: Calling all Imp's! (PvE Empire Info)

January 27 2012
Anytime in the evening or late evening. Since I have hit 50 there is not a lot to do, and I loathe leveling alts. I am pretty much stuck with daily grind, but would love a group for heroic 50s, and the 50s flash points.

We will need practice for coordinating operating runs requiring larger groups of people.

How to take a Screenshots/Get them on the web

January 27 2012
I started this thread in order to help people understand how to take screenshots as well as possibly help with any issues anyone may have. Before taking a screenshot you want to check a few settings in game.

You must be in "Windowed" mode in order for this to work. If you want to play the game in Full Screen you can use "Fullscreen (Windowed)" and it will look the same. To change these settings use the ESC (Escape Key) and choose Preferences. Then select Graphics under graphics there will be a general area at the top (pictured in image below).



Ensure that you are either in Windowed or Fullscreen (Windowed) then proceed to the next step.

While in the game you can press Print Screen key which is typically located in the top right hand area of your keyboard by the "F12" and above the "Home" but may vary depending on your keyboard set up.

There is no visual que in game that a screen shot has been taken. Although you may see the screen jump slightly. If you want to take a screenshot without the UI (User Interface) visable then ALT+Z will toggle this on and off.

Once you have taken your screen shot it is automatically stored on your computer under "Documents" or "My Documents" (depending on Windows version) then in a folder named Star Wars - The Old Republic. Inside of that folder will be one named Screenshots and it should have all the screenshots you have taken in game.

If you want to post your screenshot on the forums there are free solutions you can use to host your files for you.
Once you have your files hosted you will want the url to your image and then click on the icon in the Boardcode section of a new post. Paste in the url and press insert and you are done!

Any questions, comments or anything you want to add feel free to post them and I will make sure to help with anything I can!

I'm ok at PVP. I would like to know what day or days you plan on doing it because most the time I get to sit there and do stuff by myself. I work weekends and most the time things are done on the weekends. It is just a question won't hurt my feelings either way. I can kill on my own! :laugh:


I work second shift on weekends as well. My primary game days are wed to fri. I also have people willing to run pvp on weekends but I will primarily do it during the week

Dakon I'm going to switch gears on you. :) I'll remove myself from the Tuesday low level data hunt and try to get those on Varro solo.

I'll sign up to lead the data Balmorra datacron hunt since I'll know where most of them are and can help guild folks to them.

Van,

Let me know when you are going for it I can help you if you need it. The ones after Balmorra are like a vacation to get. Most of them are lying on the ground with little to no jumping required. Did you by chance get the MPS from vendor on Alderaan? You will need it for two more datacrons in the future.

I may wait for the locked box on Balmorra since once you open it anyone can pick up the datacron, would be nice to get as many guildies as possible the datacron without spending lots of credits.

I agree and love the hunt for datacrons on Balmorra. No jumping around and falling to my death. LOL

I've not been to Alderaan for anything more then my class quest so need to do all those datacrons. Where is the vendor on Alderaan for the item?

I signed up for the low level datacrons with Varro as he needs to get those.

I'm doing the datacrons on Balmorra with Theodin and wanted to give some info. I found out that the datacrons are different for each side. Example: What I thought was the +4 strength datacron turned out to be +4 Presence. I was confused but after searching the web I found out that sometimes the datacrons are different depending if your empire or republic.

Last nite I picked up the eazy pizzy ones: +4 Presence and +4 Will Power.

Tonite before our pvp fun I'm going to try for the +4 endurance (it maybe +3 as different sites have it at different value) and +4 aim (thou I'm not sure I went to spend 5K credits just to get a stat I don't need)

OOh!! for the +4 aim, it's a box that you have to buy a key for. The key costs 5K and once you open the box it stays open for 3 min so folks can get it as long as your there.

Perhaps I just missed a spoiler or article somewhere, but isn't that the unknown ship crashed on LV-246 in the original (and second most awesome sic-fi horror movie of all time) "Alien" movie?

Re: Openly Gay Trek Character

I think what ColoradoMJ meant (BTW, hi from up Boulder way!) is that, in a culture that had fewer prohibitions and prejudices against alternate sexualities, more people would naturally be open about their own genetic tendencies or preferences for something other than mono-racial, mixed-gender pairings.

One need only look at some of our embarrassing and embarrassed political and religious leaders to see there are currently people who, in a more accepting society, might not have felt pressured into a traditional male-female marriage.

Dang, I just realized how pseudo-intellectual that all sounded. Sorry. Hope you understand what I was driving at. Cheers!

Weekly Event: Imperial Invasion

January 27 2012
Knights and Soldiers of Stonewall,

The time has come to learn all we can about the motivations of our enemy. We are going to accomplish this goal by becoming one of them!

Two nights a week (currently Thursday and Sunday) we would like to encourage any players whose primary character(s) are in the Republic to take an opportunity to roll up, or dust off, an Imperial alt in our weekly hhttp://knightsofstonewall.com/events/viewevent/176-weekly-event-imperial-invasion event..

By encouraging KoS/SoS members to log into LoS from time to time, we hope to help build guild interaction across the divide, and help bolster the number of active players online in the Lords of Stonewall to help make it easy to put together groups for simple adventuring, Heroics or experiencing the Imperial Flashpoints.

Participation is purely voluntary and you are free to log in for as long or as little as you like. But if you've had any desire to start exploring the Imperial storylines, this can be as good an excuse as any to take a little time away from your Republic primary characters.

Calling all Imp's! (PvE Empire Info)

January 26 2012
Hey all, thanks for taking the time to read this! So what is this thread about? Well it's about you! As the PvE Officer for the Empire my role is to plan PvE events for the Empire side. So what does PvE actually cover? Pretty much anything that doesn't involve killing another player. This could be things like...

  • Datacron Runs
  • World Bosses
  • Heroics
  • Questing
  • Flash Points
  • and more...

So what I need to know is what you all would like to see planned? What kind of events interest you? What days do you think they'd be the best? Pretty much anything you have to offer as these events are for you and I want everyone to see things they know they will enjoy.

Also anyone who would be willing to lead certain events please feel free to post as the more of us that are leading the events the more we will be able to provide as variety.

I look forward to your ideas and having some fun!

-Jon

Yeah, that would be cool. Seriously, though, if they create a gay character, it would have to be a Bridge Officer (or Engineer, or otherwise main character.) I could see a gay captain, but I could also see a gay counselor, engineer, tactical officer, etc. As long as the character is three-dimentional, I'd be at least mostly happy. However, I think that if the Star Trek Universe were real, more people would be bisexual or pansexual than 20th Century gay-straight dynamics. In fact, I think sleeping with a member of an entirely different species would be seen as more kinky than just someone of the same gender.


Hmmm, I don't think there would be more bi/pansexual people. Just more people comfortable with their own sexuality. Just as it is now, there are people who just prefer the opposite sex. The only difference that would occur is that people won't get weirded out if they are hit on someone of the same sex.

What I have always found interesting that they were okay with promoting interspecies relationships (Worf/Troi, Worf/Dax, Rom/Leeta, Dax/Bashir), but when they did the whole lesbian kiss on DS9 it was a huge deal and shocking. Lol, you would think that people who think that marraige is only to produce children that they would have an issue with Worf and Dax getting married since they could not have children without advanced technology.

Re: Openly Gay Trek Character

My ideal lineup: a Pansexual joined Trill Captain (actually, for how they had to play her on network TV, Jadzia Dax was a pansexual in many ways - remember Captain Boday(sp?) - with the transparent cranium?), a straight or bi female first officer, and a very strong science/ops second officer who's just a little shy and keeps getting caught staring at the Captain's spots! Not that I have a thing for Trill Spots. Why were there never any really hot male Trill in the series? Really? I want to see how far those spots go down!

Kor,

You can count me in for Datacron Tuesdays. I would be happy to be a guide for these nights.

I have posted this before but there are 67 Datacrons throughout the galaxay and they collectively give players +40 to all of their stats. As well as mats to make endgame level relics to boost your stats even higher called matrix cubes.

Event Volunteers Needed

January 26 2012
To my fellow Stonewallers:

If you haven't already seen it, I've posted the first of several weekly events I have planned for the Knights and Soldiers of Stonewall.

I want to develop and maintain a highly active (and predictable) events schedule so that there are activities constantly going on to encourage the guild to come together on a regular basis.

However, I am only one person with only so much free time, and a desire to actually level up my character(s) from time to time. As such, I am seeking volunteers to help serve as guides and leaders to help promote and run these events. Below is a list of the activities that require some form of leadership or guide.

Datacron Tuesdays

Summary: Each week we will visit one or two planets in two separate tiers, in order to obtain all of the Holocrons. We will rotate through the list of planets in a way that will allow us to cycle around to any given planet every 6 weeks.

Volunteers Needed as Guides: The only requirements are patience with other players and the ability to find and follow a guide for obtaining datacrons. It would be great if you have prior experience picking up the datacrons on a planet to help explain and demonstrate tricky jumps, but given how tricky some of these can be, all participants are going to need patience (even with the Guides).


Humpday Heroics

Summary: Similar to Datacron Tuesdays, every Wednesday night we will pick one or two planets (depending on the total number of Heroics) in 2 different tiers, and organize teams to run all of the Heroics on that planet. With enough participants, and someone with a knack for tactics, we can even attempt to take on the World Bosses during our visit.

Volunteer(s) needed as a a Leader: It would be nice to have one person to help organize participants into balanced teams. If there are enough participants, it would be great to find someone good with tactics to lead a battle against the World Bosses during the visit.


Flashpoint Fridays

Summary: Every Friday we will form teams to run one, two, or three Flashpoints (depending on length) and cycle through the list similar to how we are going to handle the planets for the Datacrons and Heroics so that if you miss a day, or missed a specific Flashpoint, you'll get a chance in a few weeks to join their fellow Stonewallers on the next go-round.

Volunteer(s) needed as Organizer(s): This would simply be announcing in the KoS chat channel that we were forming teams, then help organize participants into balanced teams able to tackle the given Flashpoint.

Let me know if you have any interest in helping run and organize these events.
