I'm talking about the "Ninja's" in EO? Early reports are that they don't show up on radar and that they plugins don't detect them. Which baits the question ... Did the Decal Devs finally change it so that certain monsters can't be detected by plugins, and thus help to get rid of UCMing via "gimping" Decal?


I really don't mind it, but you know people are gonna be asking it. May as well put the question out there now.


[Edit]


I tend to think so, because Drak had the memlocks up 90 minutes before the worlds even came up, so that sort of hints that had access to the worlds BEFORE they were released to the General Population.

Drakier and the Decal Devs have had the memlocs up early in the past.

You would think that ACVault staff would adhere to the rules here, but I guess not. This is pretty clearly a trolling thread. Way to go, Arch-Magi!


Also, you at least should know that all we need is the client to get the memlocs. We don't need the worlds to be up, since memloc generation is mostly automated.

Who is trolling? I'm just asking a question that relates directly to Decal.


I wasn't the first person to speculate on this, I was just the first person to ask on this board.

I logged into the Tubine Launcher (ACLauncher) and downloaded the acclient.exe exactly as you could have done if you attempted to at the same time. Anyone could have just as easily logged into the launcher and downloaded the acclient.exe the same way I did.


I also happen to have written a lot of killer tools that make most of the monthly memloc stuff pretty much fully automated. Only once in a while do I actually have to disassemble the acclient to get any memlocs anymore. And usually that is only with significant changes.


way to troll Arch_Magi.

Listen, all you had to do is answer the question with a simple "No, we did not conspire with Turbine to nerf Decal, the rumors aren't true."


If you want to keep on with the "baiting" and "personal attacks", then you will only make yourselves too look like paranoid fools.


I came here, to the source, to either confirm or dispel a rumor, and you jump down my throat. Classy.

Seriously, we would have had to have a new version of Decal to do what you're describing. Who's paranoid now?

The new critters are simply a monster with a different flag (I think). Nothing special, just one that plugins are not configured to recognize.
