Cheater

[NANI]

Well we all hope that TM2 have bigger security ways off anti-cheats

but i got my doubts

I think Mr. Smith is going to reply with some info and a video about this cheater, but I'll just chime in too...

I noticed this guy got 9.75 seconds for the 1st CP on A13 so I switched to spec mode and noticed that he was able to bypass the 1,2,3 countdown and just drive as soon as he respawned giving him a 3 second advantage over everyone else.

The thing that surprised me was that this fooled dedimania and he got a lot of dedimania records as you can see from the following screenshot:



Bear in mind that this is in a single session.

Don't know who you're talking about, but videos are unnecessary. This is too well-known enough already.

You forgot to include his login, but with that track name I could locate him in the database: marci0544. Quite likely related to marci054, which was already banned back in July. Both United accounts too.

Not anymore: he's banned and his 13 cheated records (as well as his 140+ other records) are gone now.

Does that mean he can't play online at all anymore? If so, good.

There are a lot of hackers who have local records on the server I saw this guy (Nadeo Zero), and one of them with the name Speedy Gonzalez is still online and playing :/

edit: oh i guess they get banned until they make a new account. Funny that he cheats with the united game though when forever is free.

Nation is demo, United is full game = not free. Both are Forever = same Nations servers.

No, just that he's banned from Dedimania, as has been mentioned dozens of times during this thread.

Then unban/unblacklist him again, it's your choice.

Nope, nor an idea. Without the challenge UID or TMX ID it's impossible to check it.

Here it is

TMX id: 2118194

[Xymph]

Here it is
TMX id: 2118194

Nope, that's the ID for "» Looking To The Future", but the track changed to "-[CRaZy]-" before the cheat messages.

[dago]

oops sorry

i think this the one

TMX id: 2120458

But seems weard cause it is not the same author

That has the same number and distribution of CPs. Hard to say what caused the cheat warning though. It's up to you to decide how to handle it.

[Xymph]

I noticed a new kind of cheat warning in my dedicated server's Console log:

Code: Select all

[2009/12/26 19:26:57] Connection of a new player: (elite)-japek/92.37.86.44:2350(92.37.86.44:2350)
[2009/12/26 19:26:57] Ban : internal checks (3) failed for 'godisanigga'.
[2009/12/26 19:26:57] Disconnection of (92.37.86.44:2350)

The strange things are that the connect message shows a login containing '(' and ')' which is normally impossible AFAIK, and of course it's different from the login that's banned. Even more, the ban entry in my GetBanList contains no login at all:

Code: Select all

    Login =
    ClientName = winxp
    IPAddress = 92.37.86.44:60422

The Dedimania nickname confirms the '(elite)' part though. I blacklisted this (offensive) login on my server, but it didn't create any cheated records on Dedimania as far as I can tell.

So what do people think, should the login be banned from Dedimania too?
