Silent Kane (via BHS) will be releasing a HOT pack of fixes very soon!
We just figured out a key piece of information we needed in order to get the serial hash of ANY PLAYER CONNECTED TO YOUR SERVER. What the means is bots can now have a TRUE serial-based ban, completely independent of whether or not the player is running RenGuard, and completely independent of whether the player is using GSA or WOL to connect!
The fix creates a console command that bot creators will have to request for each player when they connect for comparison purposes. All bot creators should PM me to find out what to expect in the response.
The other fixes are related to the ladder. Any of you who have been watching the ladder stats may have noticed that players with nicknames over 10 characters in length are truncated (except on the n00bstories server which is already running/testing the fix) and the map name sent in the results is actually the map AFTER the one the results are for. Both of these problems will be fixed when you use the fix that we will be releasing.
A round of applause for Silent Kane's leet talents!
I'm the bawss.

Crimson, will the console command to find out a players serial hash be put in bandtest.dll? And if so, will the source code for the modified bandtest.dll be released?

Is this the same serial hash we can find in the registry? If not: GG! If yes: oh-oh.
Nice work anyway, Silent kane. Jonwil and you could make a great team if only there wasn't this vendetta...
You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

I think this is great. I don't know what else to say about it. I really can't worry about serial theft if the hash is encrypted.

Sure, if jonwil didn't have a huge ego and wasn't such a worthless fuck.
Remember, bugs that jonwil can't figure out how to fix are unable to be fixed, because if they could be, he would have fixed them already. He's just that leet. Jonwil counted to infinity - twice.
whoa.

Am I the only one who sees this ending in serial theft?
|
Only if you are able to reverse the hash, and from what I've seen thats hard, very hard.
We where also exprimenting with this, though we didnt really finished it (yet), for now we can just get the serialhash of the first player(id). 
|
If it is a one way hash, lol, good luck with that. One way hash code is nearly impossible to reverse unless by brute force.

A hash is a random set of numbers generated from a string of text. The function uses a math equation which is literally quite random.
