Is the party time safe to use?

There's always a risk to any mod, especially those that can be visually distinguished.
No one can be certain if you can/cannot be banned by using a certain mod.

Dungeon map revealed.  May not be certain that you can't be banned for using, but i'm betting there's a 90%+ chance you're fine, given how long it's been around and used...


As for party mod, it's a bit iffy.  There's a glitch to advertise in party chat without having a party ad over your head, it will advertise indefinitely, till you change channel, till you log, or till you change party settings/leave the party.  Just open party ad up, cc to your current channel, (or if you don't use abyss cc to a different channel then back to the channel you had party ad on) and wait.  Due to that longstanding glitch, if you're not standing in an obvious spot with a party ad over your head, it's hard to determine if you're using a mod to advertise, a person would have to see you to report you without a doubt.

Can't say that GMs are unable to differentiate, but they're so rare...

Does the Item Hook part of Abyss work for anyone atm? I can't seem to get mine to work. I wanna know if these clothes I was given are pure white/black or if I have to dye em over qq #fashionogi

I saw a cheat engine table somewhere on the forums a few days ago which has a section telling you what the colors an item is.

Edit:

That aside, I have a problem.
The [Guild Home] button at the bottom of the friends list crashes my game. Im not sure why.
I have tried removing the data folder (Still crashes).

Updating the game through Nexon Launcher (so no mods active), the button functions normally.
Upon reinstalling abyss, the button causes a crash once again.

I suspect one of the files handles opening a web window in-game? Which reminds me, [Buy nao stones] thing when dead also crashes my game which is why i think its to do with opening a web window.

Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Sorry, I may not good at making things clearly understandable.

I'm using Abyss and it functions fine for me.  Which patches do you have enabled?

I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but I guess you mean the ini?

Heres the ini file if it helps

(ini isnt allowed as a extension here, the actual file does not have .txt)

[Rydian]

Code: [Select]

BugleToSystemMessage=1
CancelLanceCounter=1
CutsceneSkip=1
DeadlyLife=1
DisableAltEnter=1
DisableBarehandMsg=1
DisableChatFilter=1
DisableQuake=1
EnableMultiClient=1
FarAltDisplay=1
HiddenMonsters=1
Price=1
ItemHotkey=1
ResizeLock=1
RightClickSelf=1
ShowItemPrice=1
ShowPing=1
Those are the major patches that you have enabled and I don't, try changing all of those things to 0 and see if it still happens.

Unfortunately, that did not fix the problem. However, after further testing, I narrowed it down to this:

Code: [Select]

;Sets starting position and size of the Client.
; 2 = Enable Maximize button.
; 3 = Enable Maximize button and start maximized.
WindowPosition=1
WindowPositionX=166
WindowPositionY=-24
WindowPositionWidth=1750
WindowPositionHeight=1000

For some reason, this seems to be the cause, setting WindowPositionY to a positive number does not fix it either. Any Ideas what is happening?

Edit:
Changing WindowPosition to 2 or 3 doesn't work either.

When I opened mabi using logues launcher(after patching), a nexon game security thing ran, should I be worried about this?

No. That's just nexon's new gameguard.

It doesnt seem to care that I force close it...

If you're using any other mods such as Tiara or mod_sharker... Please disable the reading of your data folder in the abyss.ini.  This is mentioned on the first page of this thread, and a fairly common troubleshooting step to resolve any issues.

Change:

Code: [Select]

;Forces the Client read from the data folder before the pack files.
DataFolder=1
To:

Code: [Select]

;Forces the Client read from the data folder before the pack files.
DataFolder=0
Then any dlls that are used...
(for example mod_sharker.dll

Change:

Code: [Select]

;Load any DLL you want here. The DLL's you want to load must be in your
; Mabinogi folder. Separate the DLL's with commas.
; Example: LoadDLL=HackSlash.dll,mod_sharker.dll
LoadDLL=mod_sharker.dll
To:

Code: [Select]

;Load any DLL you want here. The DLL's you want to load must be in your
; Mabinogi folder. Separate the DLL's with commas.
; Example: LoadDLL=HackSlash.dll,mod_sharker.dll
LoadDLL=
Try these things first and see if they help.  Also, please make sure you're using the latest Abyss.

[higleaf]

Yes it worked. Draconis, thank you very much.

[Draconis.Pendragon]

Yes it worked. Draconis, thank you very much.

You're welcome.  If you wish to use Tiara or any other data folder mods, be sure to make sure that your data folder mods are current with the client before re-enabling data folder reading via Abyss.  This should prevent any potential issues from happening.

Well my item hooks also don't seem to be working at all, fresh installed Abyss and regardless if I have them set to 1 or 0 they aren't even in the Abyss_patchlog, and also right click self gives me Abyss: Right Click Self patch failed: search (1) as well as Show NPC equipment: Abyss: View NPC Equipment patch failed: search (0). I've been always using the item hooks and right click self. This is a fresh mabi installation btw. Oh one more thing... the red hackshield seems useless now? Since Mabi runs without it fine with mods and using it doesnt seem to affect anything...

Item hooks per Blade3575, haven't worked since Microsoft Visual C++ Update for Mabinogi around 4/15/2015 12:00:00 AM per Nexon's announcement.  This required a re-write/remake of Abyss per the discussions around that time.  The first update around May 11, 2015: Updated to R203, is what occurred after this.  Step29 as well as several others helped make it possible. There were some mods that worked sporadically after this like the color hex mod, but it wasn't consistent enough to be relied upon.  You'll note that the current revision is v204.  That being said, there are many including myself that are still using Abyss without any issues.  You want to be sure that you have the latest version released on June 29, 2015.  Also your files for Mabinogi, the client need to be current as well.  If your files aren't current then you're going to have several issues when Abyss tries to interface with it.  By your files being current I mean, dlls, exes, everything not pack related.  The latest Security side of things is going to cause some issues, but not that which you speak of.  Start from where I mentioned and I'm sure you'll be pleasantly surprised.

The thing is I have a fresh downloaded mabi and fresh downloaded Abyss, and everything works except the mentioned above things. So you're saying these item hooks will just NOT work for now, as well as right click self, while other stuff should, right?

Oh yeah and that one doesnt work for me as well...

This patch per my log also shows as broke for now.  Patches do have a habit of doing that whenever there's any client updates though, rather often the dlls...

Couple of questions,

What patches must be disabled to make Abyss work?
Will Crackshield work with the new Gameguard? (Probably not)
How bored are you on a scale of one to ten.
and,
When i'm using my data folder, which is read first, Packs (from Poison Pack), or Data from the data folder?

1: None. Broken patches won't prevent the game from launching.
2: Crackshield does not affect NGM and NGM does not detect crackshield.
3: 9, assuming 10 is the most bored.
4: Probably packs, considering how data folder works.

You are pretty blunt, I'll reword question 1: What broken patches will absolute faff me out of the game if I try to use them. (Or Abyss actually has safety measures for it? Doubting)
Don't you NEED Crackshield to be on for Abyss to even work (Past Login?)
Well, if you are bored, play some Ben and Ed
Yay.

According to the NEXON(short for incompetent) Mabi forums, Combat doesnt Timeout anymore.
