  1. I was wondering what happened there, lol. Only person I attacked on that server was some idiot who tried to jack me. There was no specification in the server name or in the motd of what was specifically allowed. Give vague details as to the rules and other people you arent looking forward to will join.
  2. I dont mind, lol, yer retarded is all
  3. Well, at the current moment, you cant even run trainers, as soon as you try and use one the game shuts down. Also, when I say a cheat server I don't mean everyone being godlike, I mean car mods at most... Modding cars is the funnest part of GTA VC or GTA 3. EDIT: Although, it would be nice to have god mode (or a LOT more health) in stunt with undamageable vehicles. Doing one damn jump and my car rolling over is not fun, then ya gotta run all the way back and wait for your car to respawn, that is if someone hasnt taken it.
  4. It would be excellent if they increase the reliability of the CRC checking, but allow the game to be started even with mods. With that setup the MTAClient could send out, maybe every 1 or 2 minutes, or even more often, a packet with the crc information. This way a server could be configured to allow or block modded clients. Everyone wins. Cheaters can have cheat servers, and Official servers can block modded clients.
  5. I run a server on my own comp to test my mods sometimes... Run Server Open Client connect to 127.0.0.1 whatever port you have server set to (default is 2003) click start game and there ya go, connected to your own server
  6. there is only dedicated servers for MTA... this isnt like Unreal Tournament or other games, where you run the server in game. In your MTA folder there will be a server folder, just the server.exe in there and have your friends connect to you. If you're on a LAN then have them connect to the IP of your machine on that lan, like I have 2 comps on LAN here, so if I have a server running, the other computer would connect to me on 192.168.0.1... hope that clears some things up
  7. I dont cheat to kill, I cheat to thrash around on stunt, which is a majority of what I play, trying to play DM sux. Cheating or not its next to impossible to kill someone who is moving. Someone standing still is still most often not even in the exact position they appear in. I've seen people in cars, who were supposedly stopped, keep drifting along. the people I do kill are the ones who steal my cars in stunt. If you crash yer bike, dont come running to me or I'll be running you over. I just want to drive around. Don't give me the whole line about "stealing is a part of the game". I know that, But Im sure you're more than happy to drive cars all the way across the map and have them jacked by someone who refuses to walk 10 feet for another. Some people steal your car when there is like 5 of them right behind them, why, cuz they want to steal something, or piss someone off, which is what they get. Anyways, like "gah" said, compress the exe, its the simplest way to stop modding the file. When I first got MTA 0.2 and learned about cheating, and that people were using trainers, i wanted to find out how, figured out it was searching the titles of the trainers, so, i first tried to change the title name of Lith joe's trainer, and I still cant edit it because the stupid exe is compressed and I havent found anything that can undo it. I came to make a few suggestions and try to help, despite being a cheater I know what the right thing to do is. but, whatever, piss in my face you bad ass. try and enjoy the new years or something. Edit: and if were on the whole name calling bit Lil Mr KungPooGrip, i have backups of all my clean files, wanna play sometime, just say it. but for now, I'm going to bed, see you next year.
  8. Not sure whats worse, me cheating or your attitude problem KFG. You can flame me all you want cuz Im an admitted cheater. Im 1 out of however many hundred or so. Why cheat now? you can't go on a server without someone or even many people cheating. I usually play late night, so there's no one around monitoring servers, which more often than not ends up in a server of mild chaos. Its not fun to play fair in that situation. I'd like to see you try. MTA is a great mod but right now is as insecure as a convertable top down. If they do a good job with it and keep the servers clean i'll cheat on my own servers and respect the rules. Right now its every man for himself. The usuall case I've seen lately is some n00b gets killed by a cheater, complains and whines for a few minutes and then asks how to cheat. they just want a level playing field, which is how I came about all of this. Make MTA secure and force a clean game, then I'm damn sure people would respect that. A lot less crashing would help as well. So add me to a ban list for keeping up with the level of chaos. Whatever. I'm not out to try and be some angel "oh I never cheat, im perfect, blah blah blah". Just doing what I can to keep up with the pace and keep having fun. Although running a clean install and trying to dodge the "demi gods" isnt boring either. i'd just rather not. EDIT: You said no one plays gtat and that justifies its anti cheating. have you tried it? I have, and trainers did not seem to work at all. I'll have to install and run again to make sure. But, looks like they have a one up on MTA.
  9. Master ban list, good idea, but... that debate has been done... 1: Vote Kick / Ban (server optional) Players would be able to moderate a server themselves when admins are asleep and not at the wheel of the server. Sure, this can be abused. I play Unreal Tournament 2003, and there are many servers with vote kick mods and these servers run very cleanly for getting rid of abusive people. 2: Client Side Damage Monitoring this would detect if the player had been hit. If the player is hit, and health does not drop, Vice City is forced to shut down, much like gtat. Gtat has very good cheat protection. Also, monitoring health at all times as well, if health increases without use of a health pickup, then Vice City crashes. 3: Maybe somehow blocking or detecting the functions of trainers, such as writing to memory. Monitor read / write actions to Vice City memory data. the current method of detection trainer window names is ok, but, an infinate number of trainers can be made. if someone were so inclined a trainer could be made to run with no windows, residing in the task bar, or even as a system service. 4: Use exe compression on MTAClient.exe, hex editing would be eliminated. If you want to run the exe as it is now, plain text, uncompressed, then use variables to call on files for checking. For example, in the current setup, one part of MTAClient refers to mta.scm, as well the crc check searches for mta.scm. MTAClient can be modded to search for an alternate crc file, such as atm.scm. While the First variable still reads mta.scm. (I assume this is to tell Vice City to load mta.scm instead of main.scm) Anyways, var deathmatch = mta.scm MTAClient would use the variable for CRC checking and telling vice city what file to load. To sum it up, if I mod what the variable is to say var deathmatch = atm.scm (atm.scm = hacked file) then the crc would still catch it, now way around this without some serious decompiling and rewriting the code. .... Anyways, just ideas, I dont know what exactally can be done. I myself love to play any game modded after its been beaten. how about some mod modes, or maybe an insecure client that will NOT connect to secure servers. I play on a friends server occasionally and we all run modded cars, and its the most fun ever. And Im sure your ignorant enough to disagree with me, or maybe not. I would at least hope for health monitoring, vote kicking for people who really abuse the game / servers, as well, maybe an open handling.cfg mode. Thanx, just another cheater, NaMaNaX P.S. 95% of the time, I cheat to drive fast and have fun, the other times, Im assaulting someone who stole my car. Fix cheating, Im all for that, but at least give us an option. thank You, and happy new years.
  10. What they need to do is use some kind of exe compression tool to compress and obfuscate the data in the exe. This would prevent editing of the client.exe, making it much harder to reverse engineer or hex edit. For compressing the client.exe something like WWPack32 or a similar program. With this kind of program compression the data still is hard to manipulate in memory. Doing a memory dump on a compressed file to make it modable still is unreliable. These simple tricks would thwart a lot of cheats.
