1st thing, sorry for double posting... but FL0rn also did it FYI...
Several days later, with additional relevant information that would have otherwise gone unnoticed.
Secondly, I didn't mean that Nexon has their own hackshield I meant that the hackshield they use, and even if they did own it, they still wouldn't worry about fixing it too much because currently they are working on another project which may be released later this year, or sometime next year, (i believe it might be Mabinogi's replacement)
I hope you realize that companies don't just have one team that does everything, even if they were working on a new game, that wouldn't stop the Mabinogi team from doing Mabinogi things.
3rd, Nexon's games vary in the Hackshield that they use because 1, Alantica Online was bought from another company, a hack prevention was already in place, similar to what's now being used in it (Xigncode). Vindictus is way newer than Mabinogi is so Mabinogi being the older game, was probably not compatible with the Hackshield but Nexon didn't think this would be a problem sense Mabinogi already had a working Hackshield.
Mabinogi never started with Hackshield at all, it was added in at a much later date. So age of the game isn't even coming into play here. But yeah, having different versions of the same thing could explain why it works elsewhere, but not here.
I read the statement wrong, I didn't know it was the notifications that were bugging you, my fault, but crakshield and client.exe both get stuck in a loop to where they won't close and Crakshield will open more than once.Also, I understand you are a "do it yourself" type of guy, that's cool, but the thing about OS is that they hide a lot from you, the same entry could be in many different places without you evening knowing, if you are skilled with computers you'll most likely be able to find them, but it will take you awhile, Like you said in the post before, you weren't really sure about that registry, well a program made to do specifically that task would be superior to your guessing. But, it's just like using pen and graphing paper to a graphing calculator, you're the type to use the graphing paper, I would use the graphing calculator and sure you can get the same answer, but it'll be less accurate and take more time, but hey what do I know i'm still young
I've yet to find an OS that's hidden things from me. All the tools and applications needed to do whatever you want are readily there for you to go screw with.
With only two clicks of my mouse, from anywhere on my PC, I can open an elevated command prompt, with a few keystrokes I'm in my registry editor.
With a quick checkbox, I can replace the command prompt with PowerShell in my start menu for easy access.
There's only two locations the notifications can be, and I found both in a few seconds. The only problem is that I can't read the code written in the registry keys, to be able to figure out which is which. But that's only because I don't know what format it's in.
And, I've yet to see a single program that can be used to "clean" your registry, without damaging your system. The same goes for uninstallers.
Fun story on that actually, I went off for a week, and my girlfriend (at the time) was at home, using my PC, and decided she didn't like what my antivirus was doing, so downloaded her registry "cleaner" and no less than 10 minutes later I had a phone call from her saying my PC was so full of viruses that she couldn't even fix it with her antivirus.
Get home at the end of the week, look at my PC. Not a single virus to be heard, but my registry was so thoroughly destroyed none of my programs would run, and my entire PC would lock up and freeze until it was force restarted, because her program had turned my ULPS back on, and rearranged all my drive paths and directories, to the point the only things that still worked were Windows itself, and Skype, the only two things that were on my C:\ drive.
