Splash damage is calculated serverside. Also, the number is before applying any transformations due to different armourtypes. It's the value the CLIENT sends.

Ah sorry, didn't realize we were talking about values compared against the servers own calculations, never mind then.

No need to apologize. I can't expect everyone to know how BIATCH works internally Wink However is the case, it is impossible for a stock client to send 28 damage as far as we know.

If someone thinks it is possible I would like to invite them to prove it under controlled circumstances, with a way for us to reproduce it. Otherwise I will stick to my view that it's impossible without deliberately modifying the client. That's one of the reasons that liquid decided to not ban nacho/forces him to help us out in the development in BIATCH.

The latter part would mean that every serverowner AND player would be better of, but apparently that's not important to Jelly.

Just like it is impossible to make BIATCH show '<player> used an unavailable weapon (Damage: <num>; Warhead: <num>)' for players playing legit thru an oversight by Westwood.

That said i'd like to know what exactly is triggering the messages, as I doubt it's objects.ddb because Jelly can check for it.

I'd like to know the reason it triggered too. Maybe nacho can play with no mods except for that c4 skin and see if it triggers in the shotgunner test? And if not add skins until it does. I would be very interested in seeing exactly what caused this so that I can fix it if there is a problem or explain it if it happens again (to someone else).

According to what liquid stated on the Jelly-Server forums yesterday or the day before it was the C4 model.

People who use those Reborn skins/models, usually do get popped from a few anti-cheats. It's been that way for years, so it's hardly new. Listen

No, that's not what I'm saying, but I guess rideculing me makes it easier to ignore the fact that you're not helping us out improving BIATCH and TT.

@shaitan
What AC messages? Bighead maybe, the rest is as far as we know completely impossible.

So did BlackIntel or the TT team get the C4 model that was apparently causing the issue?

I found the issue (thanks for sending the files Smile ). The problem is that your C4 model uses a bone named "C4", which is not present in the stock model. The C4 bone is configured to have a damage multiplier of 4, hence shooting at it will report 4 times the amount of damage as normal. This is not possible with stock files, because then you can only do 1x (normal), 3x (neck) or 5x (head) the amount of damage. For this reason, BIATCH detects it as a cheat: you are doing more damage than you should.

With stock files this cannot happen, and with the modified model you are indeed cheating, as you do more damage than you should. BIATCH did exactly what it should do: block the cheat. Even though you did likely not do it on purpose, it is good that BIATCH caught it as it stopped you from accidentally cheating. Smile

The issue only happens in this specific case: if a .w3d has a bone named "C4".

The fix is to rename this bone. Then you should be able to use the model again. There are no other bone names that can give the same effect, so this is really the only model that can cause problems (assuming that noone names a bone "C4" in non-C4 models that is). If anyone ever claims that they have the same problem (although it sounds highly unlikely that it would ever occur again), BIATCH must report 4 times the amount of damage a normal weapon would do, and it must be their C4 model, otherwise, they are likely lying as as far as I know BIATCH does not give any false positives I do not think that there is another way to "accidentally cheat" like in this specific scenario.

It's happened before with a custom C4 model Scrinoid made:

Are you implying Scrinoid didn't rip off most of the stuff he "created"? Big Ups

Yeah, but scrinoid was also intentionally cheating, so that doesn't tell us much now does it Wink
