Tutorial: How to disable Nexon's ad
Maple story Forums : Maple Story Tech Help & Patches : Talk about problems with Maple Story and Patches Thread starter
What? This topic explains you how to disable the ad, which you get to see when you Alt + Tab or use windowed mode. The topic explains how to disable the ad NOT how to remove it. Why? The ad is annoying; The ad is distracting; And some people lagg due the ad. How? #Note: I use a dutch version of Internet Explorer and dont know the exact words. if you cant find the word try to look for something that is almost simulair to the word i used Its nice to know that the ad uses Flash and Internet Explorer to start the ad. 1. Start Internet explorer 2. Go to "Tools" you can find this either on the right hand side of the screen or by pressing left Alt on your keyboard(There will apear a menu) 3. Click on "Internet options" 4. Now go to the tab called "Security" 5. Click on the button "Custom Level" 6. Scroll down until you get to the scripting options link If you use Internet explorer frequently follow the next step otherwise go to 7b 7a. When you have arrived click on "Prompt" belonging to the item "Active scripting"This will ask you everytime when a website uses Javascript if you want to allow it or deny it 7b. When you have arrived click on "Disable" belonging to the item "Active scripting" 8. press "Ok", a window will pop up asking you if you really want to change it click "Yes" 9. Press "Ok" again to save the changes. 10. Start maple and enjoy mapling (as you can see the ad turned white and has been disabled) Incase you already have maple running, restart it Who? Special thanks: SatsuJin said: "People, you can also follow this way: Control Panel - Internet Options. then do it as the tutorial says, starting at step 4. PS:I don't recommend this solution for those who use Internet Explorer as standaard browser" goombapatrol, For correcting me on "Add" which should be "Ad" lumchan said: "Thanks =D Maybe you should explain up there what is actually does (disabling scripts on IE and so) cause people keep asking "does it work for firefox?" or "now youtube isn't working" and etc." Thanks for making it sticky and correct the "Add" to "Ad" in the title Replies
I don't really see the point in the ad."Let's advertise to people already playing our game!" I understand they advertise NX, which is completely understandable; but why advertise the word "MapleStory" in a pink background. That just doesn't tell me anything I should to have to know.
mine is different from urs O.oso im not gonna try it, mayb i mess everything up =P

You know, i've never seen the ads, not once ever since they were released. But then again, my IE settings are already set to Maximum Security since i don't use it as my browser ever.
I'm glad the ad is gone after Patch v.057. New Pic: Barack Obama!
With the ad gone thanks to Patch v0.57, this thread is no longer necessary for now. I'll leave it open so that the topic starter may bump this thread up again should Nexon ever re-implement the ad. Thanks for helping out.  ~Topic closed for now~ Register / login
