have anyone found a way to use that along with Xfire?? i really want xfire to record vids and automaticaly compress them and upload them at youtube… i always getting a crash of gw2 if i dont close xfire first.. any solution?
Mine works with XFire, fwiw.
LOL, messing with my dads and his does crash with XFire, I’ll check to see what the dif is, we have almost identical systems.

My 2:
Do not enable HDR in the settings file. It totally negates SMAA, which it the main reason the injector exits.
Turn off FXAA in game.
Turn off Post Processing in game. (More pop and brightness doing so)
Attached is my settings file. (Copy/Paste it over-top current settings, also this could fix people having issues running this if you have DX9 HW only)

So, I’m in Singapore and when I saw the time that they picked for the Special Event, I guess that Anet hates Asian.
I guess Asian MMO’s hate North America. Lots of hate these days.
How about… they are from N.A. and they have to pick a time and they picked one from their home country and that’s how them cookies crumble?
I’ve noticed a large drop off of bots this past week, fwiw. Small sample.
This is a great tool in the pc-gamer tool-box, some games it adds amazing quality.
This game not as much, if you turn HDR off in GW2, it is very similar to what this injector does. There is a strong argument that the detail is much better in GW2 with HDR set off in the menu.
LEVEL OR ELSE!!!
Did that work?
XCom is an option for the PD player.
Personally this was always a major concern for me. In every other mmo, over time if you aren’t at the end, the game is very barren and very non-mmo like, really a curse. Games typically add new functionality to power-level or just let you start high level characters to get around this big issue.
With GW2 you have/had these options:
1. Play the game right at the start, but that was as I understand it, a kittenized zergfest and couldn’t possibly be the directors vision on how to play the game.
2. Wait and then face possible isolation. Right now it seems you best play a Human if you have concerns like this, as from what I read they are the most requested race.
3. There is still plenty to solo.
4. Remember it’s a mmo and group up.
I’m glad to hear the minimum is 3, that is the number I’ll be playing GW 2 with from start to finish. The places I have been just testing the waters solo, have had enough people around to do the DE’s 80%+ of the time. This only two short months after release. Sounds like an issue for those that aren’t bringing group members with them to play a mmo.
I honestly am I player that doesn’t care much about color or looks. So dye’s and things that look different but have the same stats, almost worthless. I have to surrender if something looks stupid vs something else that looks majestic, yes I prefer the later. Something with a terrible color palette combo vs a cool one, I’ll take the later to.
But if all look reasonably cool and their palettes were properly balanced. These are the least things I care for in character progression. I do believe I’m in the minority, but I never ever get the love for dye’s and paying for them or paying for armor sets. I’m just as happy out-playing you with a $50 guitar vs your $1500 neck through Jackson. I’m an older gamer, and boringly practical.
Personally I liked balanced PvP and PvE to me didn’t matter if it’s balanced or not, so I do like loot progression in PvE, it’s a reward. That said, I wasn’t mistaken what GW’s was doing, that’s been transparent. It’s not my first choice, but I understand, it’s the game they made.
PvP more like a FPS. PvE more like a ARPG. Both in the same game, even better.

^Right, you should be treated as a soldier. Thanked for your hard work and dedication, nearly anomalously.
Isn’t GW2 endgame:
WvWvW
or
Start another alt
or
Wait for content to be released, perhaps an expansion
???
This is my feeling on MMORPGs (Not RPGs, specifically MMORPGs) making You, the Player Character, The Hero: It doesn’t work. The very concept is immersion breaking. Being A Hero works, but not The Hero.
I’ve felt for a while now a suitable MMO story is simple, there is a massive world war going on. There are multiple fronts, so multiple areas you may encounter, there’s your zones and variations, but all part of the same overall war. Use WW2 theater history for inspiration, but fit your lore/theme.
Every quest revolves something around forwarding the war effort for your side. No quests of “can you get me apples for a pie?” or “bandits over there being jerks”. It would be “go get these supplies so we can take them to the front line”," take these supplies to the front", “get this intel to the frontline”, “find the spies amongst us”, fight at the front, “return this from the front back home”. Play that scene out.
Then on to the next front, with it’s own story and characters, each growing in size and scope.
But all quest there is an urgency to support the war, because this is serious and we have to do it pronto or we lose everything. You don’t have to be the one, your just one moving the cause forward until success.
I believe it’s a simple formula, but a believable one of what would really happen in an epic story. No major off-shoots that make you lose focus of the grand story, constant direction of forwarding the war effort until the end.
We should not have to “compromise” and go into windowed mode. The game’s camera should be calibrated correctly for fullscreen.
Yes you should, yes you should. Or you can wait for eternity. Your choice.
Run in window mode, use all the width and make the window height about 2/3’s the screen or whatever you like. There ya go.
To be honest, I do agree to a certain extend that the Combat feels boring.
In its essence, GW2 is just another ‘’Hit Tab’’ and press ‘’1,2,3,4,5 +’’ and watch your charackter perform an auto-attack.Unlike for example TERA, where the combat styles is unique
Here are three games that nearly no one mentions when talking “action based combat styles”:
Dragons Nest
C9
Vindictus
In those games you still get skills but also how you move towards/away using a skill, if you jump and use a skill, if you hold a MB down while using a skill, if you stand and use a skill. The same skill works differently, coupled with the secondary action you are doing with your mouse. They are much more advanced, they give a lot more options and are much more exciting, it feels like a real-time fighting game.
These games are all hub based grouping running instanced quests, they also feel like a 3d Diablo game. Very fast paced. The combat model is great, each of the games have their own flaws of not being very well balanced vs PvE.
I prefer these models over anything else I’ve played in the MMO genre, funny my next favorite model is a pure turn-based. So you can see I like the ends of the combat model spectrums. Almost all mmo’s fall in-between and to me those are tainted a bit, not being pure action or turn. But I can still find enjoyment.
I believe the deal is, you pay no monthly but if you want the expansion you will need to pay for it. I believe this is something exactly like GW1.
I want to add there are strong benefits w/ or w/o carrots. Good arguments in here for both sides. To those liking carrots and continual end game grind, the answer to that seems to be leveling a character to 80 in each profession.
To the OP, the skills you list to me are like that because they make much more sense in small group PvP environment then vs PvE content. In GW1, the skills and PvE were there to prepare you for PvP (the first couple years anyway). This part of GW1 carried over to GW2, in small group PvP those small things actually matter. But I do agree for a pure PvE person, those aren’t all that exciting. Add to that, for a pure PvE player, not being a loot based game has to be very boring as well, looking the same when changing armor, boring, drops, boring etc.
I have a new pc, I don’t have the freeze, but with all the games I’ve thrown at it, GW’s 2 makes the pc run the hottest of all. It could be over-heating your cpu, thus freezing. Can you download a cpu monitoring app w/overlay so you can see the temp of the pc as you play and when it crashes?
Yes, this one is more heavily moderated vs the avg., so I reckon in your perspective it could have been worse yet.
Surely you have any evidence for your claim.. oh wait you don´t
On the other hand just name one MMO, one Game or even one pirece of software that
has been produced in the last 15 years taht didn´t have any bugs.
See? You can´tGuild Wars 1
Do you mean bugs on release? None. But what are the nature of the bugs? D2 bugs, for example, were mostly issues relating to bnet connectivity, not content (infrastructure vs. programming).
Guild Wars came out complete and virtually bug free, yes there are always a some little one’s, I don’t think those that complain about buggy releases are after perfection, they know that won’t happen. But there is a point where it’s a bit more then something should be.
Those that defend the game will throw down the “No game is perfect” card every time, they know that isn’t what is being alluded to, but they just always have to be defensive about things and seemingly just can’t talk straight. There isn’t a person that paid $60 for GW’s that wanted it to be bad.
GW1 was pristine for a release, Rift probably 2nd. And there have been other fairly clean releases, things have improved for the genre and releasing overall. I thought it was quite obvious that at release time, the game didn’t live up to their own release words.
If you bring in D2, then someone else could bring in TL2 or BL2 as well, both solid launches.
This game unfortunately is becoming nothing more than a glorified version of Diablo 3, when they hyped it up to be a full featured MMO on par with Wow/SWTOR/RIFT etc.
Glorified D3? D3 still has sold 2 to 3x more and GW’s doesn’t really have loot hunting and a total different perspective. And RMAH is a defining feature that GW’s doesn’t have.

CPU replacement solution: Check the I5 or I7 section, depends on your budget. But for Mid/Low $200’s you can get an i5 that will solve your issue.
Yeah this game takes a strong CPU. I’m looking at upping my low-end system so it can play well. Figuring $250 for MB/Cpu that will do the job well.
1 patch per week is glorious compared to GW1. I’ll take it!
I don’t recall anything having to be fixed pronto in GW1. And what was all those “please restart your client” messages in GW1, back in it’s release days? GW1 was a technical beauty.
So your name is Hype, you talk about others whining and then exaggerate yourself saying “you’ve played every game launch that’s happened in the last 11 years”. You want others to be straight shooters and you have to dramatize yourself.
I mean if we can say from our keyboards the OP has flaws in his system. I mean really how do we know there isn’t one in GW’s? Because they are a corp, they must know better? Like how many times do we fall for that one? I can link 25 articles of major corps being hacked and mined. So it’s not anywhere near a certainty where these problems exist.
Before formatting this is what I would recommend:
“Verify your process threads”
Verify all processes running on your system.
Goto Task Manager Processes
List Alphabetically
If you know most of them and they are ok, skip those.
But simply grab each name, google it, learn about it.
Also you can run “msconfig”, go into StartUp and Services-Hide MS Services.
Verify each one is needed.
You may also simply clean up your system some doing this.
All the above, any computer user should become aware of. It’s really not that hard at all.
Yeah that is good for a chuckle.
I will say I do have a hard time deciding what I like least between under-water combat and Panda’s. Whichever losses then goes up against the Shark Fonzy jumped for Supreme OOOPS try again!
If they made speed runs illegal in DDO that would leave about 50 people in the game. But I get why the OP asks, we can see they may react first and deal with the issue later getting you reinstated. Personally I would say no, if they don’t like it the dungeon needs to be designed where you cannot speed run it.
For my own education. How or what are they doing to record randomly placed mouse clicks? You mouse click randomly placed numbers on the screen. Those apps should not know what those numbers are in those positions. Thanks in advance.
The Pin is stored only on the game developers servers (which aren’t being breached). It also it’s effective against key loggers. Other sites would never have the pin.
That is what should be used. Dragon’s Nest does that, all that is needed.
I’m not a fan in the year 2012 of Authenticators. I think it’s on most peoples minds because of WoW. But there are things that are just as good, that don’t require HW or a Mobile Device.
See Steam authentication or see Dragon Nest authentication (which I like best).
Dragon Nest you have a User/Password and you have a pin # you create. You sign in User/Pass. In Game (and that is important) you enter your pin, but you do not type it. A 9-digit numpad is displayed on-screen. The numbers are in random order each time.
You click in your pin. It is virtually hack free. If a hacker got your user password, they would have to in 3-5 tried guess your pin #. Not gonna happen.
