Will it finally be able to be detected and blocked?

The server sets the radar mode but the client calculates and renders the radar itself. Unless we modify the netcode to make the server transmit its own radar blips this isn't possible server-side.

It will have to be client-side.

Well since there is a client side to this patch 'I can' definitely see this being blocked.

So you are saying that it is impossible for the new patch coming out to block radar hack because it is client-side?

If thats true then they would be unable to block *cheat name removed*since it is client side. Huh

yeah, but there's ways to detect it, unlike radar.

I'm not saying it's not possible, but I am saying is that seeing as it's a client-side fix then clients simply don't download the patch if they want to use their radar hacks.

Radar hacks aren't even testable as far as I know.

There must surely be a way to check this. The hard part is to avoid it getting bypassed.

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

Yes it is, just hope the idiot takes a screenshot of himself cheating in action. (Check noobstories.com, there's a couple dumbasses who did that.)

Blocking radar hack is quite tricky, I guess we somehow need to keep comparing the mode to the one of the server or something.

I know blocking radar is exactly a high priorty when people use *cheat name removed*and rate of fire, but I was just curious since this will be stopping cheaters. Thumbs Up

in clan games, radar hack is quite possibly the most insidious and problematic cheat.

It can be blocked and it probably will be, but even if we block it, sooner or later it will be recreated. It can not be made impossible unfortunately.

Its extremely rare for a screenshot to do that, and they are saved to your renegade/data folder when you take them!

No... you're not reading. TT will do their best to assure known methods are being rendered useless. If someone with the skill and the time to do so can figure out new methods, they could get around it, but then it could be fixed again. This is just like any other software in the history of time.

Besides, the anti-cheat is only one of the many components of "1.038". If the cheaters don't patch, they don't play with the rest of us, nor do they get all the nifty features.

Hopefully it will get forced on everyone(imo would be good) if the patch works alright.

Can't you just detect what the server's mode is every few seconds, then have a ::Think action to remove all non-friendly units? oO
