SERVER ADMINS: XMPSecure1a

[OnYx(DCSB)]

Good job guys.

Scott, can you check the .ini on our server please mate.
XMPS Was causing connection issues for afew people the other night.

Cheers.

 

[XBrotha]

Yep, same here. I made the changes suggested and I still had the same
issue of everyone that's connected gets a bad connection when the map
changes.

Had to remove it again.

Same here... Sorry guys but you need to do a lot more testing.... everyone's server is not set up with the basic mod. There is so many more mods out made by ppl. I think this maybe a major problem. I will be glad when things get resolved. I really want this on our server. Though, i have no idea if it would help catch anyone cheating.

 

[llam0rz]

Has it even caught anyone yet?

 

[fireball]

Well, I don't have an "XMPSecure" log file floating around anywhere..

 

[jordanio]

I don't think it has caught anyone yet, nor will it for a long time (as I don't suspect many people of cheating).

The only person who has ever botted was Sub. I can't believe he used the assualt rifle on an artifact carrier in a match on xmptv. hahah Did he think the assualt rifle wouldnt blow the ranger away in less than 2 seconds or did he think liu wasn't watching an artifact carrier. I cant believe he didnt think that rifle would be noticable lol. anyways the Secure thing would be more useful if more people botted but xmp is a type of game were only few hit over 75% of the time so if u hit someone 100% of the time u dont need xmp secure because people in game can tell if your botting.

The first instance of botting during the XMPTV cast of DCSB vs. [tH] was not with an assault rifle. It was a shotgun shot. The second (and last) instance was a 180-flip sniper headshot in the red garage area.

Seagull's sig goes so well with the above post..

 

[petSHARk]

Smeagizzle i did watch that cast many of times did u see him ahh i think it was 25mins into the cast when Rage was chasing him and he blew him away with assualt rifle then finish him with shotgun. thats what i mean

 

[jordanio]

It's not terribly hard to stay on a ranger with the assault rifle. I use it whenever I face rangers like GHop (when I'm a tech), and it actually works a lot. Now if Sub had alt-fired that assault rifle, THEN I'd be a bit weary of his...tactics.

 

[L0cky]

Make sure you rebuild the Md5 list on your server; if you don't then people will get connection failed on the second map.

Give feedback etc to Se7en, I only compiled it

I'll give it another test later and get it on Jolt for those who play there.

 

[fireball]

One of my clanmates [not Mech, and I'm not saying who] managed to join my server (running XMPSecure) with a pistol that emptied its clip in a tenth of a second on full auto. He showed me the command, I managed to reproduce the effect with a shock lance.
(note: it also fubarred the clip ammo for the SL. That shot was taken just by swining the mouse around for a second or two and then hitting F9)
FIX.

 

[Keasis]

hmmm, fireball relay your info towards se7en or l0cky. Tell them how to reproduce the effect, or how you managed to do it. I guess they'll be able to block it in the next release.

(btw, I'm not really afraid of this kind of cheats, as it would be noticed immediately.)

 

[fireball]

Yeah, setting it THAT high is obvious, but you could, say, boost the RL fire rate by about 20%, and not many would notice. You can theoretically change anything, such as damage, but I couldn't get that working for some reason.
And I couldn't find either of them. Probably asleep when I wrote that.

 

[Zur]

He showed me the command.

Let me guess. Fire adjust ?

 

[fireball]

If you mean firing rate, yeah.

 

[Bleeder]

There was mention of XMPSecure being updated to block set commands months ago, but that hasn't happened, probably because none of the major servers (MYU, Muppetzone, Jolt) bother to run it.

 

[fireball]

And they're not in their IRC channel either.
Well, L0cky, if you read this, "I told you so".
Meantime, I guess we're not playing any matches since this thing even exists.. sorry, but at this point I really don't trust the community that much.

 

[Bleeder]

Well this thread is no longer sticky, so I guess XMPSecure was a failed project
What's more disheartening is that nobody seems to care about informing the general XMP public about the current hax that are being exploited (firing rate set command seems to be the rage now). Somehow I think if all these hax were out in the open, this mutator might have gotten better publicity and implemented set command blocks/etc.

It doesn't protect against the 6 major cheats I know of. (well possibly 2.)
Mainly because they are a problem with U2XMP itself that would DOUBTLESSLY get patched if Legend didn't get shut down.. Honestly, I am not going to post the results of my research. Posting it in public would be like beating a dead horse.
