Vague in every way.
What troubleshooting have you done, what is it doing.
Is the game launching, and closing.
Is it just not launching after hitting Game Start.
Have you went into TaskManager and looked to see if client.exe is there and just not showing up.
Have you updated HSLaunch.exe and ran autoup.exe to update HackShield to its most recent update so they bypass can work correctly.
Have you checked your firewall to see if crackshield is being detected.
Have you tried running without mods, if so, do you have both Tiara and Abyss. If so have you tried one, but not the other.
Have you looked into the abyss logs and the mabinogi logs to see if there is a fail somewhere while trying to start?
Thanks, I went through all the steps you asked about:
1. All I've done so far is install Tiara, and did a restart, then I launched CS and tried to open client
2. Client did not show up on task manager (the cursor was loading the game, but won't launch the client)
3. Nope game doesn't start after hitting Game Start.
4. Nope, the client.exe didn't show up
5. Yes, Hackshield is updated
6. I checked my firewall and cs has permission to run
7. I was able to run the game with an old ijl15.dll file I downloaded from the forum
8. I checked the logs but I didn't see any notes on fail anywhere

At the moment I can only run the client with the old ijl15.dll with cs and with mods in the mabi folder, just that mods wouldn't run.
