Good Afternoon Everyone;

On 28/1/2015 NCSoft AION Clients have become incompatible with our servers. GamezAION Servers support up to version 4.7.0.8, to check which version you are running please go to your AION Default folder and open version.ini.

If it says 4.7.0.8 you are all set, please DO NOT UPDATE your client.
If your client is post 4.7.0.8 you will need to downgrade so that you are able to play on our servers.



Any Installation of the AION Client after 27/1/2015 will be effected and require these following steps to play with out having major impact to your game play experience and or being able to proceed with general game play functions as NCSoft has changed many in-game mechanics that we will support in future server updates (from enchantment & enchantment stones, to manastones, to terrain changes for certain maps).

We have provided to the best of our knowledge the exact files and folders, which NCSoft has modified that will hamper things.

How to Downgrade
Very simple, you will have to download a few file archives which are below and then follow the following instructions.
(Done in segments so that you do not have to download ALL of it at one time.)
Data
L10N
Bin32
Effects
Levels (<-- This gets extracted into AION\Levels)
Version.ini

For people running 64bit clients (rare but happens, you still need bin32 as well):
Bin64

OR

ALTERNATIVE Download Links:
Data
L10N
Bin32
Effects
Levels (<-- This gets extracted into AION\Levels)
Version.ini

For people running 64bit clients (rare but happens, you still need bin32 as well):
Bin64



Once you download these, make a separate folder on your desktop. Move these to there and extract them

Click on Extract Here, this will make a New Folder with the name of the contents (such as Data).
After you have extracted ALL of the downloads.

Navigate to your AION Folder. These are the default install paths.
If you have changed your install path click on the search box and type AION then enter.

For 32 bit systems: c:\program files\NCSoft\AION
For 64 bit systems: c:\program files(x86)\NCSoft\AION

Now, the simple hard part! Copy and Replace ALL duplicate files.

Click Yes; the folder will copy into the directory (this is an example so it will be a different folder name)
Also, make sure you pick Copy and Replace and have the Do so for the next conflicts checked. This will over-write the files, and get you back in the game!

​

GamezAION Launcher will ask you to update your game (click the button there as it will reapply things for our server) this is normal so do not worry.

Also, please open task manager and end the NCUpdateHelper.exe process.

If you experience any issues downgrading or require help. Please PM Any of the Staff Members and we will assist you as much as we possibly can.

By chance, if able to it is a smart idea to make a back-up copy of the AION client if you play retail as well. This will prevent any issues with the Gamez Client and it's applicable modifications from being changed by NCSoft forced update to continue playing Retail servers.

You need to download the Bin32 link above, and reapply that folder.

 

Is it possible that the Downgrade is causing some compatibility issues with the current custom items.pak?​

 

None that I am aware of considering the clinet I am using is fully downgraded with the most recent item pack.
