Anybody having trouble using a controller now since v.120 So whenever I use my controller, either via using the controller feature in-game or via using joy2key maple crashes giving some error message about detecting auto-macro activity. Anybody experiencing the same thing / know how to fix this? I sent a thing in to nexon after the game crashed a few times describing the problem, but yeah that may never see a response, so any help? I've been playing maple so long with a controller, I'm not actually sure if I want to play it anymore if I can't use the controller, just not my style to sit down and game at the keyboard, plus, about 75% of the time I'm playing on my netbook, so yeah no desire at all to give myself carpal tunnel.

Does new pvp gear mix with old pvp gear? So I have almost the whole set of warrior pvp armor (Agares mail, cape, 1h BW, and boots) on my paladin since i got the recipes a long time ago during some event ... now this is my main question: If I get the helm and gloves from Larson now ... who sells "GRAND Agares Gear" and "GRAND Agares Gauntlet" ... will that complete my set? or do I need to find the recipes for the old pvp gear and forge them? Like all the stuff that Larson sells now has a different name than the old stuff ... basically GRAND whatever gear, so is it the same just renamed? or will I end up not being able to complete my set and just adding two random pieces on without getting the rest of the set bonus? Anybod

Advice on giving a Prismacolor pencil set as a gift Ok, so I'm not an artist (well I'm a musician, but you know what I mean) so any advice would be helpful. I would like to get my fiancee a "nice" set of colored pencils for drawing and have decided to go with a Prismacolor set. Here is some background info that will help with your response: We're both adults so money isn't THAT big of an issue, but if I can save some money on this (ie. 72 color set), I might budget in a DS game for her too. She is a user interface designer (has a masters degree in Comp. Sci. and HCI), dabbles in photography, and she likes to draw as a hobby. She minored in art during college and took art classes in high school, so she has a bit of formal training,

Turning my first character into an Hp Paladin So with the AP reset scrolls available for 50 coins during this event ... I have been thinking about converting my old lvl 155 paladin into an HP warrior. I never play the thing since it's on Bera (all the characters I play and all my fiancee's characters are Yellonde so I don't care at all about my old Bera Pally) and I figured it might be a blast to do this. I'm not sure if the community knows the answers to any of these questions, but before I do it: will HH still do up to 1,999,999 damage still even if my range is only 500-520 since he'll have 4 all stats (i assume with the AP reset everything will be 4)? if so, that will make training pretty easy ... every 20 seconds i can HH and rush a mob

unable to get MS up plus website won't load since march 31 *EDIT* after a few days i did manage to fix this. i had to reset my router MAC IP and then the site worked again, then i had to reinstall the game, and it patched itself after that, so i'm back up and running without having to do something like system restore. i'll keep what i did in mind if i see anybody else having the same issues later on. thanks for any and all help :-) ok so every site EXCEPT anything nexon loads for me. like i can go to google and wiki, facebook, school sites, nonprofit websites, ebay, etc... like look up recipes online, EVERYTHING works EXCEPT when i try to load nexon or maplestory. ALSO when i try to use game launcher for maplestory the launcher thing comes

black crystal and magic attack on shoes with maker ok, i'm just wondering if anybody has actually done this / can confirm if it works or not ... so i used adv diamond and adv black crystal and adv power crystal on my alchupiz with a stimulator and it ended up +8att above normal with +5str the adv black crystal must have acted as a +3att altering gem (which i know it acts on stuff like def/Mdef, jump, spd, attack, Mattack, etc...) while the dark crystal works on stats like str, dex, int, luk ... my question is this: if you use an advanced black crystal (and say an advanced wisdom crystal) on any of the mage shoes that have base magic attack (neli, elemental, mystic) ... can that give you like 4+ mAtt clean on these things just like adv black

Magician shoes after big bang Since mages will be a lot better as far as damage dealing 1v1 after BB and will be getting a damage range just like all other classes that is based on (4x main stat + secondary stat) multiplied by magic attack ... my main query is this: will the lvl 90 Neli shoe be the new facestomper? As far as I know, it is the only shoe that comes with magic attack and also is in the 71+ potential tier ... So I was just wondering if any rich mages out there have started to maker a lot of these, get 3 lines potential, and then chaos them for a really high magic attack. This would, in theory, be A LOT better than using some other shoe in the same tier (assuming they were cubed to the same potential stats) wouldn't it, because

Question about Rush storybook I have been searching for the indecipherable book for well over a week now, killed at least 20,000 taurospears just by myself (probably over 100,000 counting all the ones my friends have killed), had two buff circles and split up channels with my real life friends who play Yellonde, and put in over 45 total man-hours trying to get the drop ... most of my friends or I have been on 4x drop trying to get it. So basically I was wondering if anybody knew of a glitch since the last patch or something where it doesn't drop from them or how rare this thing actually is. We've found several chaos scrolls through the cold eyes that are on the maps but yeah no book for all 6 of us looking for it for me ... I've stopped maj
