    I just ran past everything in the thread, from the SFC scan to checking and downloading several Microsoft Visual C++ versions (I already had most of them like those on the screenshot in the topic) I restarted and tried to launch again, yet I am still getting the error.

    Anything else I am missing Nikos?

  2. As the title says.. game keeps crashing after the launcher. Happens on several servers.. must be something running in the background but I have no idea what it is.

    SOACS logs is the following:

    -- 2021/06/23 14:19:31 [SOACS Info] Game closed (by system)

    Would really appreciate any sort of help with this!

  3. There's a few things that needs to be looked at I think:

    1. The new players need to have a way to be competitive, being started as a farm server you cannot expect people to farm for 3-4 months and hope they stay and end up being competitive. A rental service with competitive items (Shios/Imirs/FRs +0.. Armors +7 and solid uniques +0 for example) but at a steep price. Reason why is because the market is spinning out of control. Items being sold for 400-500+ Gold Bars is just straight up insane.

    2. This brings me to my 2nd point. The economical market. There's way too much money flowing into the market and not enough money flowing out. There has to be a system of some sort that drains the market of these tens of thousands of gold bars. Prices being so ridiculously high for high end items is a big let down for new players and anyone else with not enough time on their hands. Something has to be put in place, something like creating steep repair prices, or betting gold bars on items? Tons of ideas that could be put in place or could be voted on in my opinion.

    3. An NP reset to allow everyone a chance at being at the top of the ladder. Why? Every game that has some sort of competitive element has ladder resets, this server should do it too for the sake of competitive play. Maybe add a reward to this aswell. Perhaps a hard reset every 2 months with the current top holders gaining a substantial reward and the monthly users getting a seperate reward aswell.

    4. Farming needs to be made attractive again in some form. Not money wise, but item wise. Which has to do with the 2nd point. Coins have to be made less important so the market stabilizes when it comes to gold bars. It would be nice to see items being traded for items instead of the one with all the gold bars and the most time to farm coins get to buy the big items.

    5. A total change of events, the current events aren't interesting for most players anymore and you can tell by the number of people that register. But that probably has to do with the market aswell, loads of people have loads of gold bars and just end up buying their stuff in farming it.

    Just a few points I think might have a positive influence on the playerbase and return this server to the glory it deserves.


    I also saw some people talking about a total server reset, items included, but I think that would have a major negative effect, as a lot of people have been here since day 1, farming their butts of trying to get where they are right now with their items. I think with a total server reset you would lose most of the players currently playing...

    I also saw some people talking about using NPs for items, I think perhaps if they were rental items for a week or two weeks that could be a pretty good idea for new players.


    Other than that, I think these are some points that should be looked at, however this is just my opinion alone.

  4. All this talk about racism yet ZERO proofs so far... I am really curious who that player happens to be... because the way it looks right now you guys are just trying to find an excuse to quit the server... and by the looks of it its one hell of a pathetic excuse...

    If there's racism, you report them and let the GMs handle with it, all you guys do is talk big about issues that aren't there, grow up, play the game, report those that are cheating/flaming or whatever and have fun...
