Can anyone verify that the precious Xingcode is gone?

Sad that I didn't know about this earlier but haven't been on at all lately. Just looking for an update to see if it really is gone.

If it is, thanks a bunch EME. I lost my names, but at least I can go on again.

  • It's been gone since Elin Brawler release last month. Yes, it really is gone.

    Are you sure? LOL I guess I will start the download. At least I can see what names I can get.

    I guess no-one looks in the News and Announcement section on the forums for updates
    We are going to remove Xigncode. The custom version of Xigncode that we were using for TERA was not functioning as completely and consistently as we had hoped. That limited effectiveness along with your feedback made it a relatively easy choice to discontinue our trial with Xigncode. This is one of the issues that we did not directly identify in our initial post-takedown communications but it HAS been a focus of much debate and feedback, so it seems worthwhile to officially highlight its removal from TERA. Xigncode will be removed as part of the v76 update scheduled for November 13th.

    LOL So you just trust whatever is posted then? Well, not all of us do.

    Either you play or you don't but if you think they may have hidden it in there the nothing no one says will be able to convince you
    You'll end up either believing its removed or the very well hidden conspiracy while you chase looking for it

    I mean, if you had a 60 page thread of people petitioning to remove it, say you're going to remove and then don't, I don't think the game would be standing at this point and the forums would be very noise from the outrage of being lied to...again
  • It is gone. If you have an existing install, you can delete the folder. The patch notes had the instructions to do so.

    It's gone because normally you can see the icon on your taskbar while tera is running, and its not there anymore.

    Please get over yourself already. You're just beyond rude.

    OK, thanks. I never downloaded the update that included it, so just double checking. I thought there would have been a few celebratory threads about the removal. Anyways, thanks again.

    Good to know. Thanks for the info.

    Uh...ok then? Guess that is something EME brought to themselves at this point.

    It's actually gone. I believe that they are actually required by law to let you know if they are running such a thing on your computer. All games using Xigncode use a loader image that shows up with the Xigncode game and Weblia's copyright info on the bottom right of the screen. Also, if you have an existing Xigncode folder among the game's files, you can delete it and it won't be created again. Most importantly, the game loads faster now.

    So IF they are hiding it somewhere, they would be exposing themselves to a lawsuit. They MUST always let you know what kind of software they are adding to their games. And this goes for pretty much all games. That's why all games using Denuvo must have a notice in their store page stating they have it.

    Thanks. I am downloading it off of Steam now. Only a day and a half left to go. :D

    To be fair, didnt KTC say she wouldnt post news about events in the news forum and said to rely on the in-game calendar?
    Although that prob backfired during rootstock.

    I also heard my friends seeing little fat santas wandering around but I see nothing about that in the news forum. (I have not confirmed this myself ingame so they could be trolling me for all I know)

    Although Ive gone off topic, just trying to point out that some news can be overlooked or not posted at all.

    Small Events like Santas aren't really "News" and are perfectly suited for calenders, since we know they're going to be there and just a case of when really since they so them every year

    NEWS about ACTUAL updates and what's going on is what that section is for. New events for things that require explaining (IE see The Punchup event since its new and needed explaining) are also suited cause, you know..its NEW you can't spells News without New

    Posting that someone will do something and actually doing it are two different things. With the state of things around here, I don't think it was totally out of line to seek verification that Xingcode had actually been removed from the game. I don't want to install Xingcode onto my system at all, so I was just trying to confirm that they removed Xingcode completely from the base file as well as the updates.

    To me, it's all news. Why post information of some stuff, but ignore the rest? I think the santas are important along with any other events that go on in Tera. It takes just minutes to make updates, so asking to be informed isn't really too much to ask.
