MAD_BOY Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 i suggest changing the name, i think Punkbuster is copyrighted (that's why aeron changed it to punkcatcher in mtama) Link to comment
Harry Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 This has been suggested the previous time, but i think Fayte doesnt mind. I can think of better things to do in my life than being sued Link to comment
derhitman Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 i suggest changing the name, i think Punkbuster is copyrighted (that's why aeron changed it to punkcatcher in mtama) think so yes mta isnt in the PB list http://www.punkbuster.org/ Link to comment
Andy_1984 Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 of course its copyright. change or they will more than likely try to sue you, or threaten i know i wouldnt want to come up against pb. and derhitman do you honestly think that punkbuster is going to make it for mta or give mta the right to use it(i dunno how they work that out) ? lol thts funny, i dont mean to sound mean or anything but mta just isnt that big, yes its big but its hard to take it serious maybe if mta was as smooth running as those games on the list they might consider that pb could be used in mta but then where you gonna get the money from, pb are affilated with big companys int he gamin industry just look at that list of games. ea, infinity ward, id, crytek game developers like these guys probably pay huge amounts of cash for the right to use pb in there games, also its the best cheat detection software in the world The use of PunkBuster™ Anti-Cheat software is optional and has always been provided without direct cost to our users. We believe that the cost to provide Anti-Cheat protection should be built into the cost of online games. Therefore, we contract directly with game developers and/or publishers who wish to have our software and services associated with their online gaming products. If your favorite game does not yet have integrated PunkBuster™ Anti-Cheat technology available, let the game's developer and/or publisher know how important this issue is to you. If you are a game developer or publisher and would like information about integrating PunkBuster™ into your online games, please contact us via email at [email protected]. so for mta to use pb they would have to sell the product and pb takes a small percentatge (thats the way i see it anyway Link to comment
Gamefreek Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 For MTA to use PB in the first place they would need the source code of VC, so they could make a punkbuster version for it. I doubt Rockstar will release the source code. Link to comment
Fayte Posted July 12, 2005 Author Share Posted July 12, 2005 sue me, I don't give a shit. MTA is a small public mod for a huge game, and PB is even smaller (I have no idea how many people even use it) blah... I'm not renaming it, I like the name...whatever readme coming soon, when I can be arsed just use the readme for 1.3 (i lost it, if anyone has it please post it here) Link to comment
Harry Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 Ok... that was the end of my support to this quite good idea. If even Aeron changes the name, and you're even more stubborn? Bleh Ah well, it's your own choise ofcourse, but i think it isnt a really smart one. Good luck developing Link to comment
orappa Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 If EvenBalance (I think that's what they're called) find out, they'll send him a "cease and desist" letter asking him to change the name or they'll take further action (i.e. suing him). It's a lot easier for both parties concerned, so he doesn't actually need to change the name unless he receives such a letter. Link to comment
Andy_1984 Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 sue me, I don't give a shit.

I'm not renaming it, I like the name...whatever readme coming soon, when I can be arsed just use the readme for 1.3 (i lost it, if anyone has it please post it here) grow up kid, i hope even balance sue you. seems to me that your trying to ride on pb's tail naming your crap the same as it, very misleading and wrong just for your stupidity im going to tell evenbalance about you.

Fayte Posted July 12, 2005 Author Share Posted July 12, 2005 Trying to ride on their tail? The real PunkBuster is a piece of shit. I just like the name. If they want to send me a cease and desist letter, fine Link to comment

If they want to send me a cease and desist letter, fine hahahaha man your an idiot trying to say your so called "punkbuster" is better and your a liar. you took the name because you know deep down that punkbuster(the only one) is the best why dont i go call my php mta query tool ASE yes thats cool ill call it ASE because ASE is a piece of shit and while im at it ill call my chat client i made ages ago Yahoo Messenger jusdt because i like the name joking about the ase and yahoo thing btw Link to comment
Andy_1984 Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 indeed thats why i dont use it but its a well known name and registered trademark so ill use it on my chat client and maybe people will think its awsome and i will be famous and then get sued btw i use yahelite for chating to people on yahoo, its better and more stable than messenger cause kids cant hack/kick you on it Link to comment
darkdreamingdan Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 andy your flaming unneccessarily. its none of your business about risks that fayte is taking. for god's sake, its just a NAME. like jon said, he can change it when hes obliged to. Link to comment
Andy_1984 Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 well i see it as necessary, kid needs to be taught a lesson, trouble is kids sitting behind there desk like fayte dont seem to realise that you can just as easily be sued on here as in the real world and his mummy wont beable to help much except sell the pc she bought him for xmas to pay for all the trouble he put her through by being stupid Link to comment
orappa Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 If this flaming continues, I will be forced to lock this. P.S. If the year in your name is your year of birth, that would mean that you're a kid as well. Link to comment

Fayte Posted July 13, 2005 Author Share Posted July 13, 2005 Wow, this guy really is a dipshit. does yours catch things like wall hacks and aimbots ? no it doesnt so stfu ^ this here proves my point. Could a mod please delete this thread Link to comment
me>you Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 does yours catch things like wall hacks and aimbots ? no it doesnt so stfu A wallhack or aimbot would be useless in MTA.... Link to comment
=BDC=Kenny Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 does yours catch things like wall hacks and aimbots ? no it doesnt so stfu A wallhack or aimbot would be useless in MTA.... If a person was standing behind a wall trying to shoot back and taking cover from the wall, it will be useful, and for aimbots, if you had a M60 and one guy is sprinting left and right to dodge your bullets, it would be useful.

orappa Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Whatever your criticisms may be, I think it's better that he's trying to create an anti-cheating program rather than a trainer, no matter what degree of success he has had in doing so. Link to comment
