unreb Posted March 15, 2004 Posted March 15, 2004 Dont know if this is feasable or not, but in order to help in the war against cheaters why not have the MTA client send an id packet to the server containg the machines SID or a files GUID, thus ppl could then be banned via this unique number rather than ever changing ip's and nicks. Of course there are SID walking programs etc out there but i doubt ppl will be changing SID's all the time. Just make sure no one spoofs your SID --Unreb
unreb Posted March 15, 2004 Author Posted March 15, 2004 I suppose though someone could quite easily write a program to inject that packet with a random SID.....then again maybe the code could have some sort of checksum generator for a sort of 3 way handshake?? ?? --Unreb
eAi Posted March 16, 2004 Posted March 16, 2004 If you look at the other forum (which one? - can't be bothered to look) I'm supposedly making an anti-cheat - whether i'll get around to finishing it is another matter entirely. eAi
