From what I have read, the anti-cheat is built directly into your .exe.

The anti cheat will be partially client side, included in an existing or new Renegade file, and partially server side.

Everything which is possible server side has been done. This was limited by the information that the client sends to the server. If i understood correctly, the client will now send more information to the server, so the server can check for more unusual stuff and block it.

It will be harder to bypass but as long as it's the client that calculates damage and so on, it'll never be possible to guarantee that things can't be bypassed. And calculating everything server side is nearly impossible: it causes way too much lag.

With inverse engineering, people will always be able to bypass protection. You just need to make it hard enough and update regulary to discourage bypassers.

Exactly as Gozy said, and I won't go into details about how it works so that I will not make it easier to bypass. It is still possible though and it will probably happen some day.

And hope is not lost again. Because we can provide another update to make the cheat impossible again.

It's like war. All it really ends up in is "I got a better gun, haw haw", then the other side goes "Well I got a better gun than THAT one, haw haw!". Repeat the last line forever until the other side is dead/gives up.

He seems to be less active lately...

Cabal's war analogy is indeed very accurate. I'm just not planning to be the side that gives up. Razz

About the compatibility... BIATCH gives false positives on servers with modified values in the objects file, does this new anti-cheat read the values directly from objects.gm or will we see the same problems for modded servers?

Is there was some way to having it compare to the server's objects file, instead of an ini or something?

The new anticheat will not use the clients damage values at all.

How many times do we need to explain this... BIATCH DOES compare the server damage in objects.aow (or .gm) with the client damage. The whole thing you don't seem to understand is that changing the server damage does not make any changes at the damage done as this is sent by the client. So BIATCH sees the normal client damage entering and sees incorrect values server side, hence bans. It's perfectly logical and it doesn't make any sens to change damage server side as it does not currently work anyway.

*sigh*

How damage works in Renegade

Client --> damage values --> server

exemple: GDI rifle body shot = 7

client --> 7 --> server

BIATCH checks this:

client --> 7 (GDI rifle) --> server: BIATCH incoming 7 (GDI rifle) = 7 (GDI rifle) in objects.aow

if you change GDI rifle to 15 in your objects.aow

client --> 7 (GDI rifle) --> server: BIATCH incoming 7 (GDI rifle) != 15 (GDI rifle) in objects.aow --> !ban

If this doesn't clear it up, then there's no hope for you.

Try changing in on both the client and the server, and it works.

BIATCH works by comparing the damage value send by the client by the damage value in the servers objects file.
Unless you change either of them this works normally. If you change the client one that means usually that you are a cheater. If you change the server one you're a dumb fuck, as that doesn't change ANYTHING EFFECTIVELY. The client still sends the normal damage value, so all damage done will stay the same.

Only way to increase the damage serverside is by changing the armor.ini damagemultiplyer, as that is applied serverside.
