stuff like this happens now and then.

can you manually put them in the cr chamber?

looks like its still happening. I can join missions, but they have no logs.

Not even losing to unknowns, just no mission log exists.

by **_Anshin_** » Fri Aug 13, 2010 12:18 pm

I can now put them into the CR chamber but before they would show up in the ready section as dead, but wouldn't show up in the CR section when I went there. I had to wipe an entire squad 6 slowly before they started showing up in the CR chamber area.

Did Ryan or the HMW staff do A log dump? As in Mission Logs?

News Credits: 226 · by **Burn** » Fri Aug 13, 2010 2:17 pm

There's been an on-going server issue for the last week or so that Ryan's been trying to work out to no avail.

Next time it happens expect the site to be down for a little longer than normal as he trys to pinpoint the exact problem and get it fixed.

Is there anyway to make the life bars smaller manually? I keep trying to get back into this game, but the life bars are so hideously huge and I just can't do it.

If there's a code for greasemonkey or something, that would be awesome. I really want to play again because I miss HMW a lot, but I just can't take the life bars like this.

You're kiddin' me, right? Out of all of HMW's issues, the life bars have, basically, stopped you from playing?

their smaller in ie7 compatability mode than in the old version. If yo toggle the compatability mode, you can see the difference.

By the way, the old refresh issue is gone on my end, so Kudos to Ryan for ironing it out, or whomever. Or maybe I just got a good update in IE that fixed it, but we'll credit the sitepwner, he likes praise.

Anyone else getting game error notices when upgrading? it will give you the upgrade, but also says doesn't have enough xp to upgrade

Sounds like someone's clicking too fast ...

Normally i'd agree, but I've only been clicking 1 time. i'm about to reset one of my cons anyway, I'll see if the problem pops back up

News Credits: 226 · by **Burn** » Wed Sep 01, 2010 7:37 pm

You may think you're only clicking once but you could have a faulty mouse. I've experienced it before.

And people ... remember ... what your system when you're reporting.

I get this a lot too and believe me it is not "clicking the mouse too fast". I would think that if it didn't happen 80% of the time. Besides I'm too slow to click that fast

I've noticed this as well, it usually happens when you upgrade a tactic first.

This bug doesn't appear when you first upgrade a regular stat and later a tactic.

by **Neo Crusader** » Tue Sep 07, 2010 7:09 am

I just reset a character stats first, but then when I did the tactics it added them 2 at a time rather than having to click twice.

Not a problem in this particular instance, but it could make things difficult on other/future occassions.
using the lastest firefox

I have just notice, while updating [url=http://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwar/character.php?character_id=99906]Big Grim's[/b] bio and whatnot that not all the info is showing up when I am completed.

I have in his bio a Datatracks entry as well as accomplishments he has done; ie...reached level 1, 2 and over 100k xp and such. Now when I go to edit it all the info is there but it isn't viewable when you just look at his screen.

The kicker is that it doesn't seem to be happening to any of the others on my team.

yesterday i fixed up the name on 12 AMnesia,and ever since then, the pic of the tank isn't there unless I'm looking at mission logs or the profile (i dont see a pic out of missions or when being repaired)

and in case it matters, i'm usin firefox

nothin major, but it is annoying

edit: i can get it to show up if i change the color, but if i put it back to the same shade of green i had it on it wont display

Been gone a while, but could have sworn missions lasted longer than this.

I didn't even know there was a retreat mechanic... so anyway, is this as it should be?
