This cheater subject has perked my interest and was hoping if ppl might shed some light on this related issue. I'm definitely no expert and I can only rely on my experience, understanding what I think of game mechanics, and available net info (you guys and other). I do think there are more aimbots around and we had some cases a couple months back. We perform server side demos, which I know will show differently for client side demos, I just don't know exactly the extent. In any case, I believe I nailed this sniper aimbot pretty well, but I'd like to know your guys' input, if possible. This occurred early March and the account is remains VAC good standing. I made the following post on Steam Forums to get similar feedback and its hard to judge considering the "community" there. No offense. Thus, you mightier than thou people here, I am more optimistic of the responses, like you nailed it right, or you need more lessons on identifying aimbots.
Here is the post http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showpost.php?p=9368328&postcount=64 In a later post I explain why I did it in 3rd person and at least what I picked up on to make my final conclusion. To speak to Demo-to-Avi process, I use what is free. FRAPS is a resource hog, imo. Don't mean any offense: 1. I take the Demo file, load it. Windowed mode, 800x600. 2. I use Xvid, and a number of binds to start making a AVI, and a bind to stop the AVI generation. 3. Take teh AVI, use as-is, and upload to WeGame (used to use GameVee but they plopped). 4. Sometimes I'll use Windows Movie Maker to put a series of generated AVIs together. 5. I'm not an animator, I just do what I think is necessary. Thanks for input on the aimbot though, you'll find 4 vids.
