Whatever people say, its better then nothing at all!
And you never know when they update it...
So if you cheat... you can be cought off guard!

As it is now... there is nothing at all...

Even if I knew VAC2 would only catch 1/10 of cheaters I will welcome it!

Happy happy joy!

RE: [hlds] Status of VAC2 Beta

They should just make a new anti-cheat altogether.

If you cheat, a VALVe employee is sent to cremate your computer, using a
special VALVe created grinding machine that grinds computers to a fine dust.

The dust is then sold to kitten litter manufacturers.

And it will be in the EULA that you agree to it.

People will stop cheating real fast.

I am interested to know if there will be any client side protection in
VAC2, as this is something I am becoming increasingly concerned with.

Just yesterday one of the servers outside of my management which I
play on quite regularly came to sending me a pile of cvar requests
(normal for some of the hack-check systems) then it sent me a pile
data which I cannot identify - followed by a console clear.

Now forgive me for my paranioa, but IMO this is the start of Adware
financed servers - PLEASE PROTECT THE CLIENTS FROM THE SERVERS TOO!!!

Re: [hlds] Status of VAC2 Beta

2005-06-13 Thread Dagok

What you are describing is from servers running Mani Admin Plugin or
BeetleFarts plugin.
They added a rudimentary detection for the common HLH hack by sending the
client cvar commands that are known to be used to execute the cheat.
So when the cvar is successfull it knows that person has a cheat installed
and then based on the setting it can ban them automatically.

So its really nothing to worry about.

2005-06-13 Thread Steve Dalberg

The VAC2 Beta refers to the servers enabling VAC2.  The servers don't
do the cheat detection, so that testing is completely independant, and I
believe has been going on since march/april.

Jonathan wrote:


Apologies if I've somehow missed this in an earlier message from someone
else (or Alfred, even), but the last I knew of VAC2, it was still in
connectivity testing.  This was several weeks, I believe, before the
recent update that seems to have expanded the beta to 1.6.

So, where exactly are we with the beta test?  Still connectivity, or
have we moved along to cheat detection testing?

Just curious to see how it's progressing.

This never happened on VAC 1



Its a known issue with the VAC 2 BETA.

The figures I've seen bandied about are 1 in 4 players will not be able
to connect to a server that has the beta enabled. Also, as Steve Dalberg
has just posted, it doesn't actually do any cheat detection.

 i have beetlemod on there do you know if bm has the same anticheat as
 mani?

Yes, it does. Mani uses the same method as BM, bm had it first.
Check BM's documentation to see how to set it up. It's enabled by default.

 What you are describing is from servers running Mani Admin Plugin or

Correct.

 They added a rudimentary detection for the common HLH hack by sending the
 client cvar commands that are known to be used to execute the cheat.

correct.

 So when the cvar is successfull it knows that person has a cheat installed
 and then based on the setting it can ban them automatically.

correct.


 So its really nothing to worry about.

The cvars in question were not cheat detection - and the console clear
is not a normal part of this process.

 I am interested to know if there will be any client side protection in
  VAC2, as this is something I am becoming increasingly concerned with.
 
  Just yesterday one of the servers outside of my management which I
  play on quite regularly came to sending me a pile of cvar requests
  (normal for some of the hack-check systems) then it sent me a pile
  data which I cannot identify - followed by a console clear.
 
  Now forgive me for my paranioa, but IMO this is the start of Adware
  financed servers - PLEASE PROTECT THE CLIENTS FROM THE SERVERS TOO!!!

  Whatever people say, its better then nothing at all!
  And you never know when they update it...
  So if you cheat... you can be cought off guard!
 
  As it is now... there is nothing at all...
 
  Even if I knew VAC2 would only catch 1/10 of cheaters I will welcome it!
 
  Happy happy joy!

I hope they're doing full cheat detection, but tell you that they're

Apologies if I've somehow missed this in an earlier message from someone

connectivity testing.  This was several weeks, I believe, before the
recent update that seems to have expanded the beta to 1.6.

Re: [hlds] Status of VAC2 Beta

2005-06-12 Thread artiecs
Well there was an email from Doug Lombardi a couple weeks ago saying release
was 'Imminent'. I'de have to guess from that, that the connectivity issues
are the last major item to sort out. Detection testing must already be
complete, if it wasn't and they were starting it after the connectivity
issues, there's no way that the release could be 'imminent'. But this is all
speculation on my part.

Re: [hlds] Status of VAC2 Beta

2005-06-12 Thread Jonathan

So would I, honestly, but after Alfred's comment from awhile back, I was
just a bit confused since the wording of that March announcement is kind
of contradictory to something I read on this list.

Dagok wrote:


The Steam News update back in March specifically said...
we will be logging cheating violations into our database to make sure
it's
ready for general release. 

http://www.steampowered.com/Steam/Marketing/Mar25.2005/

Since they updated HL1 code last week to prepare for the release of VAC2,
I'd expect to see VAC2 released by the end of the month.

Yeah, that'd be what I thought after the Imminently line, but that
seems to not be the case these days.

That, and I'm fairly sure I remember seeing Alfred comment that cheat
detection was coming up, not already completed - which is why I'm asking
so that I can find out what's going on. =]
