    THIS IS NOT FOR PEOPLE DCING (also with black screen) IF YOU CHANGE CHANNEL, BUT FOR BOSSING
    PROTOTYPE CLIENT FEEDBACK: CLICK
    Public version now available: Click


    Title.

    About a year ago I had a project with a friend to make MapleStory run from .img files instead of .wz files. This supposedly permanently fixes any kind of GFX errors in-game.

    Sadly we got stuck and I had to dust the prototype client for about a year. Coming back now, LiliLili who has helped us a lot find out the cause of GFX by debugging all over place make me remember about the client. She looked into it and find out why it no longer did boot (where we got stuck) and fixes it.

    So now we got a working client that runs MapleStory from .img files directly instead of .wz's. This was used back in the day by Neckson but they disabled all the functions in the client since it was never meant to be used by the public. But as we know by now Neckson is very great at disabling things, which is why we got it running now.

    With the story aside I need testers to see if the following is true by my other friend that re-enabled all the functions in the client:
    For Windows so far for our testers (and myself) we couldn't trigger GFX yet for a single time whatsoever. This includes using the heavy April 1st files that made it much worse (which is also the files I use in this test client on purpose).

    For MAC users while we got this method also working for MAC, we are not 100% sure yet if it works. We had a really hard time crash for MAC as well, but eventually after spawning over 3500 zakums it did happen, but I see this as not the best way to test, so have hopes up still.

    Cool story Kim, so what do you want from us?

    I need testers that blackscreen crash a lot, and are ready to give feedback if they still with these new files.
    I need testers that are willing to sacrifice a run by doing a Zakum or Horntail run without GFXing at all
    I need both Windows and MAC testers. For MAC I need a tester that Zak run a lot, since as far I've heard MAC users instant crash at Zakum

    The download will be 1.82 GB so it will be a full download. If you have slow internet, I recommend to let other test it
    The MAC one will be as usual a bit bigger.

    If you are interested, PM me and tell me what you want to test and where you crash a lot (ex: Cake, Horntail, Zakum) and let me know which part you will be testing.

    Thanks.
