    Default Evil Gameguard Update

    PSO2's gameguard updated.

    It now prevents some applications from working properly. They "stop working" and close while PSO2 is running. This is happening to me and two other friends at the very least.

    If your application has a 32 bit version, use that version and hopefully it will help. Common cases include Ventrilo, Media Player Classic, etc.

    No official statement from SEGA, affecting both JP and US.

    Spoiler!

    It does more than just that.
    It actually manages to get a driver loaded in without actually prompting the user (named dump_wmimmc) and this has actually been causing bug checks.
    Honestly, playing around with kernel mode is always dangerous, especially for something as unimportant as a game.

    Oh wow. Turns out that update is why Volume Mixer crashes every time I try to open it while in game amongst other stupidity :/

    How is this legal

    As long as game companies are too lazy to make proper security code, this is going to keep happening.

    God I think fucking gameguard like locked my system or some shit like 2 minutes ago. Couldn't even shut down through the OS after PSO2 crashed. Why the fuck is Sega still using this piece of shit

    The dark force Gameguard returns. I received an email from tech support yesterday for something that I submitted over a month ago. They really need to step up customer support at the very least.
