[September 3, 2023]Abyss Patcher

[vb286]

Not sure. That's what I did and still have the unresponsive problem.

could just get something else and leave abyss alone till we get a proper patcher?

[Wolvers]

Used hInjector when i finally found a reliable download. Worked great with the right timing. A lot less frustrating than trying to figure out the problem. Thanks

Proper patcher? What's not proper about Abyss? What else could he get that does the same thing as Abyss?

Should have mentioned I have PerX on my site.. lol my bad. That has problems with Anti-Virus though >.>

I'm really sorry man, I'll just try moving some things around, and see if they work. If not I'll send you the Tiara I used~

Lol thanks for the support. I'm likely going to just say uncle and wait until it gets figured out by someone smarter than myself and just be modless again for now.

I think he's simply referring to the fact that no patcher can do search functions for the patches anymore because of Nexon encrypting the client, and having to hardcode them instead (making it so it needs to be updated frequently). Unfortunately I don't see the return of that kind of functionality for quite some time.

Gasp, your antivirus doesn't like PerX? I wonder why...lol

[Blade3575]

I made a function to do wildcard searching like Fantasia had (obviously actual function searching is gone because there are no useful exports), but I haven't implemented it since I want to move to an IJL proxy. Only problem I'm getting is it says IJL is missing when I do. Been busy with other things, I should really try and get that fixed so I can convert to a new patching system made from scratch..

[GiratinaAltered]

This may sound weird but I'll give it a go.
I just recently reformat my pc to Windows 7 x64 from Windows XP x64. I have all my files and Tiara with Abyss downloaded. Tiara works fine but for some reason Abyss isn't. Abyss mutes out all my sounds and no Abyss log was shown when after launch of game. It still requires me to launch crackshield even though no mods from Abyss was working at first. What can I do to solve this situation?
Edit: Tried to use injector doesn't actually work, sound is muted and Abyss isn't working. I tried PerX and Valkyrie injectors. It's only dsound.dll that seem to mute and cause problems for me.

That and you have a problem that some pcs cant handle abyss with no known cause or solution to help.  It really was just slapped together.

Huh? :S The entire client is decrypted in memory by the time the bad graphics card screen shows up, searching works just fine and is what Abyss is currently doing (though as Blade mentioned it does not currently have wildcard searching.) There may be no symbols, but addresses are not hardcoded.

Software comes with issues that must be addressed postfact. Sadly, no one with the ability to debug the issue has had this issue yet. I would accept a preferably small harddrive image to debug this myself, though.

I knowwhat debugging is and how it works with pre-publishing and what not.  What I don't get is why there has been no future de-bug and no work towards this unknown issue.  Grateful for you wanting to do it.

Hey blade. Mind adding this to your patcher?
It's one of my favorite mods. After dicking around with ASM on old patch files. I managed to recreate this old mod.

Renaming it to something other than dsound.dll should avoid the sound issue, why it's not working is beyond me though. CrackShield is dinput8.dll and HSLaunch.exe, which enable dsound.dll (Abyss) to work; so if CrackShield isn't a problem then it's just with dsound.dll.

Sure. Reminds me I keep forgetting to look into enabling bank tab and bag viewing without VIP.. (no functionality of course)

It is only dsound.dll. Rename only lets the sounds work. If try injected it detects it but doesn't make anything work, regular the same.
It's either the software I'm using or the soundcard that blocks it. But it worked fine when I was still using Windows XP *64 before update. Could possibly changing the soundcard would make the game run normal with Abyss again? Suggetion on soundcards anyone?

Future debug?

We have no way to really work toward a solution, though. Someone could post their crash log but I can't say it would actually help. Maybe I should look up how people might dump the crashed process and how to debug from that? I have never done so before...

Injecting it does the same thing as the dsound.dll proxy would do. I don't know why it's not working for you though.. The proxy works, or at least has for everyone else, up until now. With the except of the proxy not attaching to begin with, but never the sound problem.

I'm just going to throw in a idea, Isnt it possible to make a d3d9.dll?

[Blade3575]

I suppose so, there aren't many exports so it should be easy enough. How would I transition? Have the new dll delete dsound.dll from the current folder or tell people on the forums?

I'm not sure either unless I can find a solution to this I'm pretty clueless myself. I have everything in order, only having dsound.dll not functioning to use any mods.

I'd go with the auto-delete, would be simpler for noobs

I really, really love what you've done, but the top of the font is cut off in the temporary chat log.
Here's an example



It might be hard to see in this picture, but is anyone else having the same problem? Is it just normal? Thanks.

That issue has been address before. Haven't had a fix yet. XD

Well, this may come across as stupid but........ My font is small i can find the file but i don't know how to change my Bitmap=1 to Bitmap=0 i guess i am just not seeing this part

[samwise]

Thanks :3
I just didn't want to look through all 49 pages for something that could probably be answered quickly (seeing as this has been out for a while).
I juuuuuuust downloaded this so, yeah.

After downloading and extracting the files to your Mabinogi folder, open dsound (configuration setting file) that should've come with it.  It should be 31~32 lines down from the very top.  Just replace the 1 with a 0, then save the file
