The Pre-patcher Thread

I guess in this patch file was some buggy things/unwanted thing that got removed.
Grr, im stuck now, i Pre-Patched already.

Mmm, for all we know the old patch files could work f3

Maybe it has critical bugs?
Go 2 know.
We just have to wait and see what'll happen

Exactly lol, or wait for Fiel to update the patcher in which case I would re-patch.

I can compare patchers, uh, gimme a sec so I'll be able to download the other one from Fiel.

Alright cool, thanks for the help. I wonder where Fiel is right now lol

You need to repatch, it seems like. The new patcher contains less info than the other.

(Fyi, the FileComparer checks byte x in file 1 up against byte x in file 2 until one of the files ends. If something was removed from the patcher, the bytes afterwards are getting "pushed" forwards in the file. E.g. if you have an imaginary patcher, make a copy of it, and then remove the first byte in that patcher, my FileComparer will not recognize that only 1 out of [total number of bytes] were in fact changed. The Comparer will actually consider the patchers as two files with "no similarity" (Assuming that the patcher have no bytes that are similar, which will never happen))

Wahoo, time to wait for Fiel to update then?

So something near the middle of the patch file was changed. Not too useful to know, but it does mean I'll have to patch again...

They corrected the patch time to 3 hour extension and 5pm GMT ..
Guessing its over ? o-o

Yes it's over hell yes.

hmm, yup, the servers are up, but you got to repatch it seems. At least the new patch info and stuff worked for me.

I'll post the new pre-patcher soon. I'm uploading now.

Next time I'll post the time it was updated on the FTP so people can download the newest one. That's my fault. I'll correct it for next time.

Also, if someone notices an update on the FTP patch files, can you notify me through PM? Nobody notified me so I couldn't update it as soon as possible. I was really busy last night, but I'll make myself available to update the pre-patcher.

The new Pre-patcher is uploaded.

Ah, figured you woulda noticed this thread and didn't like people PMing you lol. Nice work again on the Pre-Patcher, too bad I didn't get to use it this time around.

Lol, I prepatched using the old one and the game worked for me.

There's more likely than not a reason why they reuploaded it though, so I don't recommend it.

Chances are that the next time you'll have to patch that you won't be able to. Make sure to use the most updated patcher.

Also, using Python with your code works as wonder as well. Just download minutes before patch's supposed to be done and run the prog.

Yeah, I specifically made it easy to use. If you run into any problems, the PatchLog.txt file should tell you what's wrong.

Speaking of the python program, I just updated it again. Turns out I got a few reports of people using the wrong manualpatch.base file. Now the script checks to make sure you have the right version.

Anyone mind reuploading the 58->59? Rapidshare is being a little screwy for me :x.

Yeah, I already did. I was using Nexon's patcher on my backup folder, and it was about halfway done when it occured to me to try the outdated version. It worked, and I was able to get on, so I just used it until the server went down. And now the Nexon patcher is done, so it's all good.
