Updates

Blade & Soul client updates are typically released around Wednesday 7:00 AM (KST), although there may be exceptions (e.g. Korean holiday, unscheduled updates, etc.). If you believe the unpacked clients for any region are out-of-date, please feel free to let me know.

Instructions


Blade & Soul + Blade & Soul NEO


  1. Delete or rename the existing [install folder]\BNSR\Binaries\Win64\BNSR.exe.
  2. Extract the latest unpacked client executable for your version into the same folder, then rename it to BNSR.exe if it isn't already.
  3. If you're using Purple to launch the game, download PurpleHook and follow the instructions in readme.txt.

To fully disable NC Guard, you need to make sure aegisty64.bin and bb64.dll aren't getting loaded by the client. You can accomplish this by renaming or deleting the copies of them located at these locations:

  • [install folder]\BNSR\Binaries\Win64\aegisty64.bin
  • [install folder]\BNSR\Binaries\Win64\bb64.dll
  • [install folder]\BNSR\Plugins\NCGuardSDK\Libraries\Win64\bb64.dll

Remarks

Alternatively, you can use pilao's loader3 & bnspatch.dll plugin to block aegisty64.bin, along with Tonic's antibb.dll plugin to block bb64.dll. I can't provide support for these plugins; they should work fine, but you'll have to figure them out yourself.


Blade & Soul 2


  1. Delete or rename the existing [install folder]\B2\Binaries\Win64\B2.exe.
  2. Extract the latest unpacked client executable for your version into the same folder, then rename it to B2.exe if it isn't already.
  3. If you're using Purple to launch the game, download PurpleHook and follow the instructions in readme.txt.

To fully disable NC Guard, you need to make sure bb64.dll isn't getting loaded by the client. You can accomplish this by renaming or deleting the copy located at this location:

  • [install folder]\B2\Plugins\NCGuardSDK\Libraries\Win64\bb64.dll

Blade & Soul Heroes + 호연


  1. Delete or rename the existing [install folder]\WIN64\BSH.exe (or HOYEON.exe for Hoyeon).
  2. Extract the latest unpacked client files for your version into the same folder.
  3. If you're using Purple to launch the game, download PurpleHook and follow the instructions in readme.txt.

To fully disable NC Guard, you need to make sure bb64.dll isn't getting loaded by the client. You can accomplish this by renaming or deleting the copy located at one of these locations:

  • [install folder]\WIN64\BSH_Data\Plugins\x86_64\bb64.dll for B&S Heroes
  • [install folder]\WIN64\HOYEON_Data\Plugins\x86_64\bb64.dll for Hoyeon
