Speed Hack Detection Help..

[mdavis93]

To broadcast to certain AccessLevel mobile, the code is:

Located in Server.Scripts.Commands under CommandHandlers
-----

BroadcastMessage( AccessLevel.Counselor, e.Mobile.SpeechHue, String.Format( "[{0}] {1}", e.Mobile.Name, e.ArgString ) );

Since there are no speedhacks, what are you talking about? Just disable the broadcast.

The only thing it is detecting is people with very fast internet connections.

A logical approach to it would be to extend onto it with a collection and a couple of timers.

First you would have to do some local testing on a RunUO server to get a basis on the amount of detections are reported to the console. Then find some speed hacking programs and use them locally. Turn their control slider up one notch st see how many warnings are sent to the console. Use this number as your basis to determine if a player is speed hacking.

Now create a timer that ticks every 50 milliseconds with a static Hashtable property. Each time a new fast walk is detected add the mobile to the Hashtable if the mobile isn't already contained in it and a new ArrayList as the value. Add a timer to the ArrayList that removes it's self from the ArrayList for that mobile after about a second. Do this for every fast walk that is detected. If the ArrayList Count exceeds number you determined early in the above paragraph within the 50 millisecond tick send a alert to every online staff (GM and higher) and dump the Mobile's name and serial to a log.

Actually it would probably be better to write a new object containing the ArrayList and a bool (Reported) and adding it as the value in the Hashtable because if the ArrayList count does exceed the the determined value online staff would probably get spammed with the message and so would the log.

 

[php-junkie]

If you haven't noticed I'm sitting here dwelling on this.

Anyway, if you have a large player base I can see the collection for this piling up rather quickly and the dumped timers taking up resources. It would probably be best to recycle the dumped timers using a Queue.

Again, I am highly doubtful of this. If there had ever been a working speed hack there would have been more posts regarding this in the past. As it is there have been a total of 5 posts (WOW, count them), including this one.

Your saying theres no speed hacks? is so read below if not nm it


Your a fucking retard get ur fat head out ur gay ass there is speed hacks are you retarded?? fuckin hell

Tavu's Velocity is broke with the latest client.

I can speed hack fine with new client. I dont do it often just because my pc is old and im affraid of burning it up lol but if you want proof I'll log on your server and race you across green acres, and you can watch and I skip off your screen within a 2 screen space and wait for you at the end for 3 minutes

Using AOS client or UOSE client? I'm using the AOS client 4.0.7a.

Happy indeed...

First off I'd like to say this...if you're going to bash someone for being a

fucking retard

please take the time to get you punctuation correct.

Second, if you're going to be bitching people out on here for offering their opinion, then don't expect help from them in the future. I for one will not be helping you on any of your post from here on out.

UOSE Didnt have a problem with AoS Either

Tavu moved programs from uo.gotlag.net or whatever it was. Wow I havnt seen that stuff in ages. It seems his new host for his hacking projects got well, hacked. (oh the irony) http://www.phazm.net/ also I noticed his forum was outdated and assume thats how they got his database username and password.

[edit] i must have been under a rock the last month because apparently this net worm was a hot topic the past while.

is there a reason ahappyadmin or whatever his name is, isnt banned?

 

[sirens song]

wow, I didnt even see his name.

Even with rubberbanding, speedhacks still get through. The throttling doesn't take effect until AFTER they have gone fast, which is kind of useless.... I have tested this, and even with rubberbanding on my local server, someone else can go faster than me with a speedhack.

 

[Tidous]

I know of a few working speedhacks. Adrenaline and Velocity.

 

[Dracolique]

I guess the real question is: If players can speedhack using client/packet modifying programs, the why the hell cant I modify the walk/run speeds of players for my race modifications, when I have access to the server source code? Can you tell Im bitter?

 

[RoninGT]

There are a few speed hacks out there.. Not sure if they work however with RunO one of my staff has been testing one called Adrenaline. However it seems to just speed up the client for that player cause when he runs next to me he does not move any faster and on his screen ( He lives close by ) it seems that all npcs and players run faster... Not sure if this helps you guys any but thought i would throw it out there

I don't appreciate the type of language that you are directing at me. I would tell you to read the rules, but I'm afraid that someone with your limited skill with the English language would find nothing but frustration in even figuring out what rules are. Your post has been reported.

BTW: When you actually know what you are talking about, and have the ability to convey that concept with any rational form of discourse, then the rest of the community may afford you with some measure of respect. In the mean time I hope that you enjoy living in a world that is devoid of any form of support.

Now, if you would be so kind as to crawl off into the corner and die?

Please lets not turn this into a flame war.

 

[Ingvarr]

Try this. This will make throttling activate almost immediately after suspicious packet, so speed boost achieved with speedhack will be so low that it will be totally negligible.
Can raise CPU utilization somewhat though.
