To my knowledge the only way this could be prevented without going to a new build would be to have server-based client-side screenshots

Build 21 sounds like itll have some pretty drastic changes and features.
* Flame hopes the ballspeed goes back to normal.

All that needs to be done is when a player joins a server, record the md5 of his mapfile, if anytime during the map the md5 changes, he's cheating and notifies the GBL. Such a change would be very very minimal and would not need a new build.

It would take an hour, maybe two, to add this to the cheat detection. It is still possible to use this cheat, however Jitspoe has known about it for almost a week and a half. Which means that anyone that's used it in that time period has probably already been detected, and anyone who uses it from now on will definitely be detected.

In the very near future there will probably be a mass-ban for anyone who has been using this hack.

I knew Darkness was, but no-one believed me. But he is the one that gave me edited back in the days.

That was years ago.

Have fun Dan.

It's not hard to detect. At all.

Thats never been said, tom is right. Jitspoe simply thought it had already been fixed. There won't be any detection for it, the cheat just won't be possible to do.

Fixed for y00tz ;)

@Smokey:  It took me a moment to filter through all of the its, at first it sounded as if you were saying the cheat couldn't be fixed, i.e. disagreeing with Tom.

Gimmie 3 computers, and I could come up with ~20 different hardware IDs.

ID's are generated from each component of the computer - hard drives, network cards, motherboards, etc.

so the only way would be to switch out components a lot? i mean, it makes sense, but ... just checking.
