russin 0 Posted July 19, 2005 O..M..G!!!!SIcilian.......anyone please make an good filechecker, its imposible to play this game now. 9 games outa 10 will get destroyed and thats not joke. i havent read all this posts , but can someone tell me if theres ANY hope at all to make a good filechecker??? stop over our forums and ban the IP's from our logs we have a nice list of the losers IP's havn't seen much of any cheating scums as of late on our server <Link removed> i strongly advise on taking down there IP's for banning Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 28 Posted July 19, 2005 How many times must we say that IP's and ID's must not be posted on these forums? Quite obviously that includes links to such things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
russin 0 Posted July 19, 2005 i didn't post any ip or id in this topic at all i posted a link to my foums... that have them posted geee protecting them won't help the matter on the MP servers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RN Malboeuf 12 Posted July 20, 2005 And most of the cheaters have ID changers so you can't ban em. That's a big problem... Cheating has got so bad now that some server admins kick the peeps they don't know to solve the problem but it's obviously not the best solution. with our Preset IP bans we dont have to worry about 90% of the TKC cheators Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 28 Posted July 20, 2005 geee protecting them won't help the matter on the MP servers I'm not protecting them I'm protecting BIS, as we live in a society of litigation and the ease at which a companies reputation can be harmed we must be cautious, if it's incorrectly posted on the official forums of a game that Fred Jr. is a cheater he might decide to hold us responsible for so damaging an attack on his character.

hoot 0 Posted July 20, 2005 aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand thats why i love these guys! so, is there any chance to get a modified linuxserver as well?! we don't wanna switch to bills' closed os. hey staff, thanx anyway edit: i have icq'ed sicilian a few mins ago and he told me, that ondrej had coded the patch in his spare time, and it sounds like it was the definitive final work for patching ofp1. he added, that there will be no linuxserver so far, whats makes me a bit sad about the whole good news. no linuxserver means for us, wrapping vmware around windoze what costs performance or going back to closing the server/kicking strangers/on invite only! im just a bit pissed, but whish to thanx bis anyway, just in the name of those running windows to host a ofpserver...

I hope you'll improve on this front for the future. Nearly 45% (105 vs 127 now) of all servers are running Linux. Currently we have to do lots of unnecessary work to catch the cheaters, like reverse engineering the network protocol to log who created that A10 etc. Continuing support for only one platform will cause lots of unhappiness and distrust. Especially when it's something so simple like compiling for another platform, atleast it's simple if the code base is good. Please do it right for ArmA.

hoot 0 Posted July 20, 2005 ofp is mabye not that simple client server model you have in mind dude, so 'just compiling' on linux possibly needs more time and is harder to perform. maybe the whole code differs from os to os, so the different logfilestyles could be an evidence for this. however, lets just hope and those who pray shall pray i guess that this patch is no "support", its just cheerfulness to the community!

I'm working on decoding more packet types than just chat. But it's proving to be not easy. BIS are tricky bastards Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hoot 0 Posted July 20, 2005 we do not read the chat, it seems to be encrypted (maybe i'm wrong here). we do just read and use those packets, which are definetely not encrypted, to protect ourselves from breaking the copyrights (re-engineering the packetencoding techniques in that case) we would need an official permission from the copyright owners to be safe and this of course is impossible during a time ofp1 is still being sold... ehm btw: whats about id faking?! im interested in the way the hecklers' have coded this tool. doens't need this, some kind of re-engineering too?! tkc always says, they just mod the game with their cheats, but coding an id faker, needs to re-engineer the code in some parts in my humble opinion... editË›: does anyone have tried to run the new windoze server under linux using WINE?! would be intresting to know, cause vmware needs lot of performance...

Sophion-Black 0 Posted July 25, 2005 I just ahd an unexplainable event, no one cheated (at least not to my knowlage) but there was a message and crazy things happend 1) Messages apeared as sideChat saying: Quote[/b] ]IM A CHEATER HAH HAH HAHNO ONE CAN CATCH ME!!! problem was... IT WAS UNDER MY NAME! 2) A hint apeared with info on getting cheat stuff, didn't think to get the web adress to track the person down untill i was kicked 3) A black screan appeared with more info on getting cheating stuff 4) i was kicked as the cheater I'm really ticked off at what happened, it just happend not to long ago. I tried to reconect but i got this "Connection lost" message. then later i went back and there was the same people there. i was kicked again. so i tried again and got my slot and stuff (MFCTI 1.16 US Blue something-or-ruther, it comes up Delta). i argued for a few minutes with Assasin and homicide. homicide was the admin, and said if it happens again i will be kicked again. BUT I DIDN'T DO IT. Then i lost connection, wich was very suyspicious since i have Broadband. AND I GOT IT TODAY!!! Notice: 1) the message was in all caps 2) The two people i can only remember was assasin and homicide 3) homicide was the admin and also logged in automaticly without voting 4) homicide's name was differant at the end in the player slots with a tag of some sort so if there is any way i can prove who the cheater was or make it so i can protect my comp from cheaters that use my name please tell me!

.kju 3239 Posted July 26, 2005 no u cant ... unless the server would log a lot stuff, you could do it with ips and such ... i think the new windows server fixed this issue .. though this info wont help ya much too its a known cheat ! get the admin here to read it, thats all you can do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hoot 0 Posted July 28, 2005 the new ofpserver is working fine with WINE, so idfaking seems to be stopped on linux as well as on native windows based servers by the release of ofpserver 1.96b!!!!! just setup a XSERVER, route the signals to the VNC and startup the ofpserver1.96b by using WINE - the win32 "emulator". ...was tested successfully on SuSE8.2 by 1stG.U.N.S.! we didn't have tested the performance with 30 players, yet, so i'll report more to complete this post! wine: http://www.winehq.com/ vnc : http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/VNC.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
