Cabal Online – Enhanced Stability Update: Fixes, Features, and Improved Client

Greetings, Cabal Online community! We’ve been hard at work since the release of our latest update, addressing various issues that affected both our players and our team. Testing updates on our server is a complex task, and sometimes bugs slip through, especially when the volume of players on the production server exceeds our testing environment. In this update, we encountered a bug caused by a combination of new functions and the game itself. While delving into the technical details, we’ll strive to explain it in a way that’s accessible to non-technical users.

Technical Overview:

The game operates as a 32-bit application, ideally supporting a maximum of 4GB of memory. However, due to the game’s memory allocation, this limit fills up quickly, especially without using optimized files. Once the game hits this limit, it cannot allocate or read any more data, resulting in a crash. This issue wasn’t replicated in our test environment, where fewer players were loading fewer resources, and we weren’t reaching the memory limit.

What We Did:

File Optimization:
    Reduced the client size from 8.39GB to 6.21GB through file optimization.
    This optimization contributes to more efficient memory usage, enhancing overall stability.

Memory Handling Enhancement:
    Implemented improved memory allocation and deallocation for custom functions.
    Significantly reduced memory usage, contributing to enhanced client stability.

Reactivated Features:

BM3 Macro:
    Reactivated BM3 Macro, now functioning properly.
    Users with Premium Service Gold can access BM3 Macro.
    Encouraging users to report any issues encountered for further refinement.

AA/DA Extension:
    Enabled AA/DA extension, addressing conflicting issues.
    Extension is now expected to work as intended.

Character Creation Screen:
    Fine-tuned the character creation screen for improved clarity.
    Now properly displays class descriptions.

Legend Arena:

Improved UI and New Features:
    Better UI display in Legend Arena.
    Introduced a score system and a damage bonus system.
    UI now includes:
        Remaining time
        Minimum score
        Current score
        Bonus damage

Scores and Bonus Damage:
    Scores will determine rewards once fully configured and stable.
    Bonus damage is a random % damage buff applied upon entering Legend Arena.
    Legend Arena is in the testing phase, with ongoing tweaks expected to the scoring and bonus damage rates.

Other Updates:

Mission War Ban System:
    Reactivated the new Mission War ban system, ensuring proper functionality.

Channel Adjustments:
    All channels now accept 100 players.
    Vikalitan of Golden Sunset was moved to channel 6.

Multi-Client Limitation:
    Multiple clients can be opened, up to a maximum of 3 at the same time.
    Stability is not guaranteed with more than three clients.

New Installer:
    Created a brand new installer featuring the optimized client.
    Available for download on the website downloads page.
    Patch also accessible through the launcher for user convenience.
