small update

  • Improved detection for some types of hacks
  • Updated commandline for US Aion 3.1 launch

Note: US 64-bit isn’t working anymore after the 3.1 update. If you know how to fix it please contact me.

False possitive from Avira

Hi,

Last few builds seem to be having trouble with some antivirus, due to using a different exe linker/reloc stripper, specifically bitdefender, g-data, avira and a couple more were triggering as suspicious. I contacted them and sent them samples and most updated their database for the proper recognition as a clean exe, but Avira seems to still be a bit behind.

Rest assured there are no virus or anything suspicious in ARM, you can send the executable to virustotal.com for a check. Here are the results with the latest build:

I submitted the sample also to Avira, but their only response seemed to be an automated “exe is clean and false possitive” email, no information about whether they are updating their DBs to properly check this case.

1.2 build 8200

Added support for European PTS (just launched). You can now launch it with ARM as well, (64-bit too).

Simply use Help/update or relaunch the program to get the new build.

Note: if you wanna make a separate setting for the PTS, so that you dont have to keep changing the log path between retail and pts, do this:

  • Copy AionRainMeter.exe to a new folder
  • Make a shortcut to the exe, and add /portable to the parameters
  • Close previous ARM and run this one

This way ARM will use a subfolder in that folder to read/store the config, and the original one won’t be altered.

1.2 build 8000

  • Updated hacker lists
  • Added a check on whether the user added their char names
  • Added a list of “common people in group”: last 30 people in your group will be remembered so you can easily double-click them from a list to add them, when you are using  “settings/register only my group”

25.000 downloads

Hello :)

It’s been barely 10 months since I published the very first version of ARM, ~7-8 since the first usable version with dps etc, and about a year since I started this project. Last few days we reached 25.000 downloads, and ~400 of the cfg edit tool, must say I didn’t expect the software to become so popular, mostly in the last few months.

I was checking the first few versions.. and omg, it was so ugly -.- I’m more of a code guy so I’m not really very good at designing friendly and good looking UIs, but I’ve tried my best build after build to make it more usable and easier to use for first timers and after new features, trying to think every possible scenario after an install and possible issues with setting up the chat.log etc.

First beta version I published, just as a test/announcement of the development

slightly less ugly version playing with the interface

And today’s version

 

Some users probably don’t use most of the extra features it offers, and I understand it might be a little confusing or complicated understanding what everything’s for, though I’ve tried to keep the basic functionality simple and ready without any extra configuration. I am always welcoming feedback, so be sure to contact me anytime with your ideas or thoughts. I have received tons of feedback from users, here in the comments, through the contact form, in-game, on boards, thank you everyone who one way or another contributed to making this little app so successful :)
