Please fix Xigncode

[Arikania]

I'm trying to enter the game on my linux computer, but whatever I try, i keep getting XignCode Fails to Load. Even disabling my firewall doesn't help a bit

There is something about Xigncode in the FAQ subforum, it's in chinese, this is a google translation of it.

I believe that this is not the problem. The gameforge version worked for linux users using the proton layer

Now, the lion games version uses xigncode3 which is not possible to run on linux even if you use proton

Then don't use linux, don't tell me you install linux and don't know how to install and boot another OS on other disk

Linux was around before windows XP. Windows XP is a copy cat of Linux. Please know the difference.

gameforge removed it

XIGNCODE scan your whole computer for files that modified/created in last 48 hours, i think It's against the gdpr so illegal in europe that's why they removed the XIGNCODE when they released in west

[Arikania]

A game should not desire me to disable my firewall. That's like 'if you don't like what's going on, then don't look'

It's a design flaw, up to the game's devs to fix.

@KawaiiSoul
I abandoned Windows for a reason. LG has their terms of service, but so do I.

Anti-cheat: okay.
Disabling my OS's security layer: not okay.

[e6life]

If I were to install this game, is it possible (despite the difficulty) to completely uninstall Xigncode3 from my computer and still be able to play, does anyone know?

I'm trying to look for technical advice before installing the game.

been interested to play but no thank you i wont install a chinese rootkit.


@devs theres a reason games like BDO removed xign.... it doesn't work and no1 wants to install a rootkit to play.

Every anticheat tool needs deep access to stop hackers - that's the whole point, otherwise the war against cheaters would have been lost 10 years ago.
.

lol you act like the fight against hacks was not lost 10 years ago. Have you every played any fps? or any mmorpg that didnt have somekind of bot. Yeah didnt think so.

[Arikania]

An anti-cheat can well be programmed so, that it doesn't need deep access. An online game that demands us to disable our firewalls is suspicious as heck. As I stated: they simply need to design their anti-cheat so, that it doesn't have such requirements.

Actually, the fact that the company never fixes the XignCode issue implies that they only want players with vulnerable computers, which in itself is very shady.

Programs like World of Warcraft have professional anti-cheats, but run just as smoothly on a computer with full-fledged security as on a totally open one. Ergo: it's all about designing it right.

[aaargh]

it's crashing because most people don't have 32b ASLR. Disable in windows protection if you trust this ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ of a program. I don't recommend it.

[Shaun]

Not having any issues with Xigncode running Windows 10, I have never had to turn off my firewall or stop my antivirus program to run it. Most Anti-Cheat software don't support Linux to begin with.

Also the game doesn't even support Linux to begin with, don't know why you are even attempting to get it to run on it.

[Arikania]

@aaaargh:
Idk what 32b ASLR is, but I'll see if I can install it with winetricks.

@Shaun
The previous server of SW worked just fine, so we expected the same from the new server. I play another Soulworker on a private server, and that one too works like a charm.

The Windows emulators (and WINE, since they hate being called an emulator :D) are getting ever better, and Windows games become ever more playable on Linux as well.

You should never compare a legal version of this game to an illegal one, private servers are illegal and no one should play or support them.

You where just lucky the previous release of the game worked with Linux.

I've tried Linux a very long time ago and hated it, Windows will always be better than Linux, also you won't get any support from the developers of this game if you continue to use an unsupported OS to play this game.
