I could, bu if they don't already know how to use it, any or all of these might happen:
- They don't have a "clean" data folder and get some broken mod
- They delete more than they need to in the XML files
- They somehow really screw up something else
- I would be flooded with "IT DIDN'T WORK?!!?" messages
- People with a deadly aversion to modding wouldn't feel comfortable with it
- Nexon would be more likely to ban the packer, due to higher visibility (then again, this may not be a problem)
- You'd have every noob running around with a data packer they don't fully understand
- I'd probably get in trouble with the wiki, cause the policy says: the wiki does not condone the use of mods (though if I were solely making a judgment, this would be a fine, legit use of mods)
In addition, most people aren't going to take the time to read a post about a long, complex method of fixing their client.
It's just easier on everyone if I provide links to the fixed files. :)
"Nexon would be more likely to ban the packer, due to higher visibility"
What do you mean by ban o.o
And if I were making the hotfix, it would be an open source program that automatically patched the package files to remove the offending keyword. I do have a alpha package write API in addition to my public read API... But then again, "3rd party program", unless I hosted it on the wiki itself... :D ~小太郎 TALKCONTRIBS 2011:10:11:05:00 (Tuesday)
