[September 3, 2023]Abyss Patcher

[Draconis.Pendragon]

I will live without abyss for now until there's actual way to clean this problem. Thanks for spending your time for my annoying trouble though Have a nice day~!

Hello, I took a look over your posts to confirm a few things when I saw where your image was hosted.  I was concerned you were using KR instead of NA, so I ruled that out.
When I use the injector ever since Abyss switched to that I put the Abyss Injector and in your case kiwi.dll in another directory other than the Mabinogi one.  The idea here is that the injector accesses the Mabinogi directory to inject Client.exe while it loads and this accessing it may be tripping things and causing some of your issues.  So you may want to migrate that dll out of there.

The other thing is I noticed that some of your security files are out of whack.  You'll want to update those if you can ideally.  An easy way... depending on what you're using is to repair your install if using the Nexon Launcher or if you're using the Steam version.  It looks like you're using the Steam version based on what I can see in your screenshot.  If this doesn't work, we can look at other options then.  Once your security is setup good then Abyss should work.

Please do bear in mind that lately on Tuesdays they update the files server side before they patch the client and/or restarts of the server lately.  So shortly we'd go through this and it may not work anyways.  So we may need to wait for the next Abyss update after maintenance.

Thanks for listening and all these big help ^^!

dll file was actually in other folder before I took the screenshot. So just abyss.ini was the only file that's copied to Mabinogi folder right now. And operating system is in ENG, just installed KR IME that is all. So what is this security file are you asking? Oh and I'm using Nexon Launcher but Injector runs Mabinogi right away. Not sure if this is right way tor run Client.

It appears that NGS was just updated. I'm also getting the NGS disconnect by not injecting, but just merely having abyss in my folder.

[scott]

Yea, I am also getting NGS detected.

Yup. Can confirm. Logged in and got kicked within 5 minutes of just standing still. Had Injected too.

Time to wait patiently for an update. 

[mabinogiplayers]

Comfirming me and wife getting ngs error too!

[i486Princess]

Appearantly I'm getting kicked too? gonna double check with renamed DLL and see if that helps
after renaming the DLL abyss injector still detected the DLL but for some reason upon reloading client the hooks seemed to also be blocked tried renaming back and still same thing.
Perhaps Nexon is going another step further by blocking all future attempts from detected mods?

[mabinogiplayers]

It doesnt matter wht you do princess nexonguard been updated, happens every week, we need to wait on blade to update the injector again.

[Kaizen]

At this point, guys and gals, it's just a ritual. Every week Nexon updates their security and every week the amazing Blade puts out another counteraction. You should start expecting that every week, around or on Tuesday, Nexon will be updating their security (however pointless that obviously may be). Blade KNOWS that this is the case. So please, just give it a day or few until they pop out something updated. 8D

[ciaxel]

Are we going to have to do this every update until Nexon stops being such a prick? :\

[Fl0rn]

NGS seems to typically detect withing 2-5 mins of you logging in, in my experience.

Much as people may like abyss, i'd like to toss out a friendly warning on language.  No reason to get in trouble here over nexon's insistence on rather meaningless actions.

[NovaDracon28]

This is why Nexon should really stop trying to stop modders, there gonna eventually dig themselves a grave. Cause all the modders who don't actively try to break the game are just gonna angry and leave the game. I've done it many times and it's really no big deal to me anymore.

I've been saying that i think blade should just drop abyss for a few weeks to be honest.  It'd suck for those who need it, but after a few weeks of poor performance with nexon's servers, on top of how little content they give with each update, (the dungeon one has had more than the main content in terms of repeatability) quite a few players will quit i bet.  I think that's the slap nexon needs, is to lose a huge amount of new and veteran players, and all the associated alt accounts that go with them.

Nexon is not honestly taking great strides to prevent modding from the sounds of it.  I get the impression, and this is actually rather baseless too, that they're just breaking abyss like once a week to either meet a quota or impress a higher up.  If abyss isn't around to break, and players get fed up with this tomfoolery of theirs on breaking optimization mods while never fixing the client, then i really wonder what will happen to the game and mabi branch of nexon.  It'd certainly be a huge backfire if nothing else.

I could ramble on about reasons, but i think that covers my primary interests.

edit; quote =/= quota

Unfortunately can't speak for whether this has been happening in prior updates, as I only just reinstalled abyss today having played clean for a year or so.

Having a problem with the game CTDing with no error message when advancing from floor 1 to floor 2 alban, the moment I click the next floor button, doesnt happen going from floor 2 to 3 or 3 to 4. I initially had abyss and poison pack installed, but have since disabled poison pack for testing, still occuring. I've also tried disabling skip cutscene which was suggested as a sometimes problematic mod but still having the issue. Data folder is completely clean save for mabinovel content, was just about to try disabling ExtraThreads when this unscheduled maintenance hit.
Both Log and Debug have been enabled since I first noticed the issue, just unsure where this particular log file generates.

My abyss.ini is mostly stock, with a few of the features I don't care about disabled. Any suggestions for rectifying this issue would be appreciated. I'm trying to figure it out myself but with Alban being 3 entries a day, a little direction would be of use. Running latest version ofcourse. Thanks. Can provide my ini if needed to see my configuration also.

Oki, so when I downloaded the new updated abyss and try to open it, it'll open up in notepad, and not a 7z file. And it would just show this https://gyazo.com/644977c7217dbd629beb690b358bc387. Helpppp pleaseee Dx

[Drakelegion]

Have you tried (installing 7zip and using that or) opening the 7zip file manager, and then opening the file through that instead of through windows explorer?

[kozakoza]

Well im not really sure if this helps but im pretty much having the same issues as skylaar727
with  the alban knights crashing moving floors.  And yes my data folder is clean.

[CrowHiroki]

@Drake, the thing is i dont know how to do that xD...

edit; quote =/= quota

I totally agree Fl0rn, even though it would hurt them, Nexon needs to realize that pake is the bigger threat than abyss. Nexon North America's stance on mods is kinda stupid if you ask me

[geosun]

Not sure if this is related but I've suddenly gotten some random client crashes after the recent maintenance while using abyss/poison pack. Once right after wd died and entering the dressing room, and another logging back on and entering the dressing room.

Ooh so it wasn't just me then.
