Latest update ruined functionality of some MMORPG games

[Guest]

Hello Rayster. I uninstalled the latest update and reinstalled the previous version (3.0.21.329) so that my son could play FLYFF and still my computer will have CFP's protection. Anyway, at the start of the semester in June (Philippines), while he will be away studying in college I will reinstall the latest version. . .

Oh! What a coincidence! I also live in Philippines! I am now studying in College 3rd year starting this year.
What server does your son play? I'm in Iblis. 

Right now I'll install the previous version of the Firewall so that I can play Flyff safely.

And I will direct this concerns to GM Charon in FlyffPH so that they can send this to Aeonsoft

He is using bubble server. His IGN is AceVentura196. Below is the explanation of egemen why it happened:

Hi Guys,

GameGuard tries to disable CFP's Defense+ and CFP tries to counterattack. During this fight, if you have another security software installed(For example AVAST!), unexpected BSODs happen. We will be fixing these BSODs with the next update(in a couple of days)...

...However as a side note: The behavior of this game protection software is typical of a rootkit and can never be accepted as a legitimate behavior. There is no such thing as "white rootkit" in terms of CFP. CFP is an anti rootkit tool. Whether it is white, blasck, red, yellow. Unless the rootkit does not attack CFP, it wont attack the rootkit if it is allowed by the user. But this one is unfortunately attacking D+ core. 

Reporting this to your GM is a good move. Basahin mo ang quote below from kail:

OK, the CFP Developers are painfully aware of this issue & are investigating.

I would suggest that it might be prudent for users to contact their Game vendors, advise them of this issue & get their take on it. Ignoring CFP for a moment, this nProtect GameGuard might be disabling firewall protection at will.

Welcome nga pala dito sa Comodo forum. Maliit lang talaga ang mundo...

[Rayster]

Yep, the world is so small ika nga 

Any update from Comdo Team?

[marinius]

Nope. Wala pa...

hi all

after updating cfp to 3.0.22.349 my laptop started rebooting every time i try to start 9Dragons (during the gameguard loading)

can anyone confirm this??? i'll be doing some work for university for 4 days so I won't have time to install/uninstall comodo and 9dragons... but the thing is, a few hours before updating cfp there was no problem running 9D/gameguard


i'm running Windows XP PRO with SP2 + Comodo for about 6 months with no problems until now

please if anyone can replicate this problem please reply...

It's on another Acclaim game forum named 2Moons, but no GM has respond till now...

Hello everyone, glad someone on 2moons forums posted this topic so atleast I know the source of this issue at hand. I will contact acclaim and attempt to get them to contact Inca since I have already emailed them but of course, no respone from them. On my end of this issue however, 2Moons seems to be the ONLY mmo that does this to me. I haven't updated the firewall lately but I guess it did it without me knowing. I can play Silkroad just fine but I compared the GG from Silkroad and the one from 2Moons and 2Moons had more GG protection files than Silkroad. I tried swapping the GG files to see if that would work but GG just updated itself and the problem persists. So I'm stuck in the middle between a conflict with Comodo or with GG. If Silkroad can work why doesn't 2Moons, but then again I am using a modded client but GG still boots up when I play Silkroad. Again I'll try to get Acclaim to push Inca to fix this issue, and hopefully the devs can come up with a workaround other than disabling D+ because it offers some very serious protection in my opinion.

As a mere mortal I feel pestering Gameguard with a complaint would get nowhere. I have a suggestion: could someone at Comodo in their official capacity contact Gameguard and work with them to find a solution such as a less abusive mode for Gameguard to achieve their goal while allowing me to protect my computer with Defense+ (with rootkit protection).  Alternatively could Comodo add a temporary turn on/turn off just for the rootkit defense without the drastic measure of "permanantly disable Defense+" reboot to play a game, then reenable and reboot when finished playing the game?  Re: My problem is with Maplestory; WinXP-SP2. I did the "Deactivate Defense+ permanantly" & reboot work-around and Maplestory works then but I am not happy sacrificing my security for their security.

[razor74]

I don't think anyone from Inca has enough brain to cooperate with COMODO to solve this problem...   

[Goose18]

Any updates? Turning off Defense+ sucks.....

[Vettetech]

Odd thing is that Gamegaurd isnt used on any popular games. I play WOW,BF2,BF2142,HellGate London,COD4,COD2,U2K,Q4,Quake Wars,C&C3,TF2,TimeShift,Sins Of a Solar Empire.  and non of those use Gamegaurd.
