Tequila will still kind of work at Homecoming, but, if I remember correctly, it is a huge hassle to use because it no longer updates the manifest number that allows both client and server to match and function together.
Apologies if this isn't posted in the proper forum. As the title suggests, I wish to use the Homecoming Launcher from now on (I currently use Tequila). Under the Installation Guide in the Getting Started forum, it says this: Quote Note that if you have an existing City of Heroes (from Tequila or ...
Tequila wasn't signed and hasn't been updated in years, so triggering false positives is not surprising, especially if its used with manifests from multiple servers; that looks very sketchy to antiviruses.
The ZIP contains the files Tequila downloads on top of the game data you already have (score.exe and the piggs in score subdirectory). Unpack to COH directory, run SCORE.BAT to start the game (score.exe needs several parameters that SCORE.BAT will provide in the same way Tequila would have).
Might I recommend downloading the Homecoming Launcher instead of Tequila? It works better in my experience and downloads patches/updates pretty intuitively. @WanderingAries wrote a great post on how to transition to the HC launcher from Tequila, but the installation would be the same even if you hadn't downloaded Tequila.
I have downloaded the HC Launcher and I'm just wonder whether or not the Tequila Launcher is needed. Does the HC Launcher have included all the files necessary to run CoH or would getting rid of Tequila essentially uninstall CoH?
Tequila launcher crashing at loading banner and other similar crashes This is more than likely caused by your anti virus detecting one of the .exe as a virus which is likely a false postive OR your firewall blocking the game. Windows 10 users note that windows defender can cause this too even if you think it is off. Files deleting themselves is also caused by this. You need to make an ...
Installing City of Heroes on Windows Download the Homecoming Launcher. Follow the setup instructions and choose an installation directory. Note: If you have an existing City of Heroes installation (from Tequila or another legacy launcher), you must install the game to a new directory. The launcher will copy over most files (both game data and saved settings, costumes, etc) from an existing ...
