So let's say you were able to kill Hackshield...

What would you be doing? (:

I really haven't studied much on what Hackshield actually restricts from the game, besides detected memory editors and whatnot.

You would never have to update any programs O_o

[demonangel89]

You could basically Bufu vindictus...really...really...hard

True this. P:

I'm sure CheatEngine hacks would then become pretty popular..

[Dakota]

I don't know how that would work and then they would repair and eventually find a new hack sheild

[kidsizedcoffin]

They'd switch to gameguard, and even more normal windows background tasks would be detected as hacks.

I'd be using Linux to launch Vindictus...

Still better than Punkbuster freezing your computer because windows isn't legit

Naw. Hackshield is supposed to be a "step-up" from gameguard. They're not going to switch to it.

Dank is right. It could bring back old fashion CE trainers.

Should worry more about killing it than what you'd do if it were killed

Killing hackshield, or bypassing it in ANY method is going to be QUITE the task due to the way HS works.
HS isn't like most other "guards" that run on their own. Think of Gameguard as a DLL. It's a program, sure, but it's launched within another masking it's process and performing MANY other tasks that make it almost impossible to stop, and even if you MANAGE to GET it to stop, you'll have to make vindictus run without HS running, so good luck, and keep dreaming.

I'd just try to get item creation to work. I'm uncreative, I know.

Guess you completely missed the point of my post then.

I know. I know.
