VMware vs. HackShield: Error 66307

works fine for me, i use vmware to set up hs mule/xfer/store

Would you care to post your .VMX so I can compare? Also, what is your host operating system?

I've heard the VMWare Tools can help keep the clock working properly but since you're running a D3D game I'd assume you already have those installed. Anyway... might help.

Yeah, I pretty much have to have those, otherwise several things don't work very well.

I'm going to try changing the "nice" value of the process to run it at a much higher priority than usual, and see if that helps.

@GameMX: Yeah, sadly I realize that only a handful of the—what's Nexon claiming this week, 100 million?—many MapleStory players even know what VMware is, much less use it, and that Nexon support for this is going to be zero. That's why I'm asking for ideas on a forum like this, where the signal-to-noise ratio is rather higher. (I also know of the somewhat less-than-legit uses for it, but I'll take help from any quarter here.) Still, I don't see any harm in trying to alert as many people as possible to the problem. Who knows, even somebody on the Nexon forum might have a clue. :f6:
