Check Br File For Cheats

Re: Check Br File For Cheats

Yah, I think it is a bug or unrecognized characters (to the BR format) that cause this, and not hacking.

Nametag hacks exist on the client side, the client basically gets spoofed to thinking that certain things are supposed to happen and the server is not enforcing some of those things. In not so technical terms.

BR files are created with just vector information and some data things (like nametags) and when you dl the file and play it back, your not actually replaying a movie, your game is basically reading a movie script and acting it out to you on your game, if that makes any sense. Every move you make has it's position recorded X amount of times per second, when you replay it, it takes that info and moves your model to all the appropriate positions that you made. So it would never know that you changed something on the client side, as it only records what actually got sent to the server (where you were, when you shot, where the bullets went) etc.

I'd like to have the ability to download from the server, a screenshot, of anyone on the server. That would be cool. And end alot of stuff.
Course the hacks would just hack that, and you'd get a blank screenshot...................................oh wait. They all ready can do that.

Re: Check Br File For Cheats

Here is the BIG ONE... I put my foot in my mouth. I made a BIG MISTAKE by calling some PDX crew cheaters. After further review of BR FILES which I jumped the gun at. I found another player with the same problem. It wasn't a HACK but a BIG BUG in which letters follow certain KEYS Like {pdX)pyrosee or {pdX} pyrosee

The bug makes a mistake after {pdX}pyrosee

There is no bug bug with {pdX} pyrosee

If you leave a SPACE after } you will not get the NO NAME BR FILE BUG,which I thought was a TAG HACK.

I'm going to be eating alot of crow on this on.

MY sincere APOLOGIES to TEAM PDX AND R2

{pdX}
Mystery solved.
FYI, this went down on the R2 server. pdX is a clan that plays with us R2s quite a lot and they're damned good. Easy to mistake their skills for cheats, but I've personally don't believe they cheat. Other than the occasional rule breach that we had to sort out, they've been good competitors and constantly force me to ramp up my level of gameplay.

Yea, thats why today one of them was on the Essex tking everyone, he was a 3 star Gen.

If this it true, noobs would overload the servers downloading BR files and checking their killer for hacks . Which would result in no servers using BR ...
