Applications packed with a very old Themida/WinLicense used to work in early Windows 10 builds (think 98xx). After that, they changed something (one of the features added later on was 'system compression', which hooks into file I/O routines) that causes old Themida to enter an infinite loop.

 

All L2 chronicles without WinLicense are not affected, and can be run on Windows 10: KR internal builds, 2002 Alpha, Prelude Beta, …, C5.

All L2 chronicles using an even moderately recent WinLicense version are not affected: Epilogue, Freya, …, IO.

 

If you want to play anything between IL and GF (inclusive), you must unpack the client build or do not use Windows 10.

 

How about that, IL and GF lovers? Microsoft decided it's time for you to move on.

As far as IL (and only IL, not Kamael and later chronicles which are also affected), infinite loop is entered shortly before attempting to load imm32.dll and msctf.dll.

 

The issue will be some incorrect assumption in Themida VM generated code, which was actually noticed and fixed by its own developers years before Win 10 even reached public attention (that's why GE and later L2 clients have no issues).

Whats so nice in W10? Bah :D

Lower Windows folder size for us SSD owners. (and lower memory footprint on startup)

You know how giant it gets after a few years with countless windows updates pass :D

 

Oh, and should I mention DX12 support? Eagerly awaiting for some engine to be updated to use the new API so that someone can finally rebuild a real game and check out the performance.

Well, how about trying to give this post as much attention as possible and hope that microsoft will find a fix/patch for us? :D

Just installed W10 Pro in a VM and verified the issue.

 

@Zeeyo, Is this something you're going to work on or release a fix for?

 

I will GLADLY donate to the "Fix IL on W10" fund if you give me info. Or OFC anything else i can do to help :P.

 

[ My Testings ]

- It seems like W10 fucks with any EXE / DLL you place on the drive where the OS is running. I copied a known working system folder to W10, ran it, ( failed ofc ) then copied it back to W7 and it no longer works. Get all sorts of entry point errors.

The real fix has been already made @ Themida side. Of course, it's not retroactive :D

I will try playing around with the compatibility toolkit, for I still have some ideas what may be functioning differently. Don't get your hopes up just yet.

    • Introducing: Daily & Weekly Missions!   I've released a major panel update with a new Missions system and expanded language support.   Players can now complete daily and weekly missions directly through the panel and claim rewards such as balance or items. Mission progress is tied to in-game activity and supported panel actions, and the update also adds a dedicated Missions page, dashboard mission previews, claimable mission indicators, and full admin tools for creating and managing missions.   The Roll page now shows the potential reward drops below the roll container.   Alongside this, I’ve expanded the panel’s language support with new locale options, including Bulgarian, Czech, Georgian, Lithuanian, Polish, Romanian, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese.     The Demo is now updated with the new features for you to try out!
    • I sell complete packs. If you want to add an item, NPC, etc., you have to do that yourselves. Your friend bought the pack; he's the one who needs to configure his server type. He received what he bought as agreed, and I'm saying this without knowing who you're talking about, because anyone who buys something receives what was agreed upon.   Regards. mmmmm L2Velmore ????   If that's the one, I see everything went well... if I remember correctly you were crying over $100, I gave you a better price, and I suppose you made thousands with that... And you're still coming back to complain? :=)
    • I know many people have struggled with this specific issue and had trouble setting up the correct behavior for Toggle skills in aCis. By default, toggles interrupt the player's movement (retail-like), which often feels clunky to players who prefer a smoother, more modern experience. I've prepared a clean solution that eliminates this "freeze" and allows for fluid movement while toggling your auras. Below is the code on how to achieve this. Hope it helps! Changes in PlayerAI.java: Modified doActiveIntention to properly update the active state without stalling. Removed the forced stop() during toggle casting. Added a MoveToLocation broadcast to ensure other players see your movement correctly (prevents visual "teleporting" or desync).
