[September 3, 2023]Abyss Patcher

[Aka.]

Apologize for that. I thought the src would have the .exe

Well, anyways, When HSLaunch.exe is excuteted it touches Client.exe, EhSvc.dll, and HSUpdate.env, I believe beside Client.exe, one of those files got updated and messed up Crackshield's main tasks. Looking at the .exe it might be easy to update, but where would it be to update it? Does the code 6F5F530FCDD4E32B4C83F987 mean something?

Also, remember that the 206 error means "Another Hackshield Service is already running" The 206 error was a common error for attempting to muiliclient. Altho I highly doubt that the .exe has to do with the muiliclient feature. But if there is, another option is to remove that old coded MC function as well.

The .exe also has a IP address, localhost (127.0.0.1). That's all I know about the .exe, I hope you might find something useful about this

btw...blade, if you get abyss up and running again...Fix the log in screen change :u One of my most favorite mods and it never worked for me qq

You have to have the EXE because it sort of acts like the driver I do believe.
There are other routes to take besides updating crackshield anyways, though you will have to update it nearly every hackshield update, making a logger to keep track of the addy's or possibly even adding that to the bypass itself to auto check for them and do it itself(This would require a INI/ect and would crash mabi the first time), but even so you will still have to update the search patterns from time to time.

I remember a looooong time ago it was possible to disable hackshield completely via EagleNT in the registry or something, did they patch this or is the method just way too inconvenient?

[LtGeneral Andrew]

Wait you guys get an error 206? I get an error 5.

Unfortunately CrackShield isn't something I coded or know how to code. At this point in time Abyss cannot work unless Lays can and will update CrackShield.

For now everyone must just go without this patcher. I'm sorry, but I cannot do anything about this at this time except hope that Lays can fix this issue. If you need to delete this, then delete Abyss_patchlog.txt, dinput8.dll, dsound.dll, dsound.ini, and HSLaunch.exe.

However, if Lays cannot update for this then I don't know how long it will be before another bypass is made.

im jsut giving you a heads up blade,it seems yiting as updated a crackshield for R180

That was pointed out already. It's not public and Yiting won't be releasing any public CrackShield updates to my knowledge. He took down all his CrackShield uploads that were public a while ago. He posted that on February 6th, 2013; it's still not public and there's no link to download it.

[Naxokta]

Any idea why he stopped uploading it publicly? Were people stealing his work/being , or did he start getting legal threats from Nexon?

[Blade3575]

Someone leaked his private CrackShield without knowing it was his work (the file was passed around without info so it was an accident), and then he stopped. So I'm guessing that's why.

[Naxokta]

Only takes one idiot to screw the world, eh? It's like we re-elected Bush.

Edit: Again, I mean.

Edit: Not that we COULD do that, two-term limit and all.

Edit: I'M NOT STUPID

I'm almost certain that was... I don't even remember what it was called anymore, Gamegaurd? it was whatever they used before hackshield.
When they switched to hackshield you had to remove the bypass or hacksield wouldn't run. Never looked into why, I'm not THAT computer smart, just smarter than the average bear...noob..

[Blade3575]

EagleNT is the driver for HackShield, nothing to do with GameGuard. that method was patched a long time.

[LtGeneral Andrew]

Ok so its an error code 5. Am I correct in assuming we do NOT have the source code of Crackshield?

Not for the .exe (HSLaunch)

[LtGeneral Andrew]

Meh... I hate trying to modify things through olly. Its such a pain looking through straight ASM.

I hope he didn't simply start hiding because it was stolen. I hate that reasoning. I can respect withdrawal due to his users disrespecting his wishes, though.

It has its own sense of wonderment.

It has its own sense of wonderment.

If you mean how high-level languages are converted into assembly I can what you mean.
If you are talking about using olly to edit the assembly code then I can't see where you are coming from. I've always disliked programming in full ASM mode. ASM inserts in HLL code are ok to work with though, sometimes they make your job much easier.

[Plonecakes]

Yes, I meant working in Olly.

Now that we have a working crackshield from Lays i tried puting it with the updated Abyass and it crashes right after you enter the world, it works fine with Tiara

[Blade3575]

Does your log say Themida failed? I got on fine so you might have to redownload.

[[Bloodhound]]

All it says was Bug Trap Dynamic link liberary has stoped working
EDIT NMV it finaly works

[Blade3575]

That's an error that a few people have and I can't replicate it, if I can't replicate it I can't debug it. It's actually Client.exe stops responding but Nexon is using BugTrap's resource file for some reason.

[Crusader4JC]

So is this updated to work now? On any computer? Or just the 32 bit..

Well in the topic with the fix itself, there were people saying it wouldn't work on 64 bit right now.
