They are talking about turning off footstep sounds, which many hacks use to pinpoint other players.

No, they're not talking about anything even remotely close to that. Click here for VALVe's upcoming wallhack blocker.

its true hlirc is causing, not gettin banned now yipeeeee!

That's not what I said. I said that there were unconfirmed reports of it happening. When VALVe says that it's causing false positives, it's true. Right now, it's only speculation.

[G|W-DeathScythe]

no i mean it works for me

[DrMagus]

OK... I'm completely confused but I'll nod my head and smile :)

Who's talking about it? VALVe? Considering you work there, you should know.

United Admins offered it as a suggestion to servers admins to help stop hacks, it was unanimously agreed by the CS-Nation comment whores that it was an incredibly stupid idea, and UA are idiots.



Actually the whole idiots part was just my thoughts, but i figured that I'd just toss 'em into the pile.

Um rze, that news post wasn't very informative. There was another one csn a while back.

First off.... Your name scares me.

Secondly, Valve does everything they can to make sure the VACs are bug free and easy to install. Nothing is perfect. If you would like to code a bug free AC, then by all means, do it. But don't diss on hardworking people, please.

Yes, but Serious Sam was idiotically throwing around information that applied to someone else. If I'm not mistaken, UA was going to enable mp_footsteps 0 by default, which means it could be changed to mp_footsteps 1.

sorry



it's just when I see them announce they are testing new beta modules...I get happy..then they release while there are still bugs?



Betas are used to get the bugs OUT



:-)

I don't diss valve but a few things

1. They did make a KICK ASS GAME

2. Isn't it about time SOMETHING NEW came out?

3. Put VAC and other things on low priority and get some CS:CZ and CS2 out by christmas!! (and maybe TF2)



Thats what I think of valve...I am SLOWLY losing respect for them..because of points 2 and 3..

but I will remain Faithful to them :-)



and I have started coding my own AC...and so far it blocks some wallhacks,... :-)



YAY!

... What?



mp_footsteps 0 = disabling footsteps

mp_footsteps 1 = enabling footsteps



What in the name of the Good Lord are you talking about?

Anyway, getting back to reality...

hopefully this will be fixed ASAP.
