What's the current hacking status like in DayZ:SA?
$able replied to RadikulRAM's topic in General Discussion
I'm currently awaiting a response from them. In the meantime, I'm banned from DayZ and Arma 3. In the past when I've scoffed at people who were "banned for no reason", I now fully rescind said scoffs. Worst anti-cheat ever. If I was going to cheat, it sure as fuck wouldn't be on the Steam account in which I have 150 or so games. If they don't reply, that's it for me and BI. <3 EDIT: It was a good run: I just double-checked your ban and found it to be valid. Hence it won't be lifted. Note that it doesn't matter if you only tried to use a cheat once or if someone else cheated on your account. For obvious reasons I won't comment any further on this. -

BE always banned for such exploits as they are also considered cheating. Remember that this is different from the game's own kicks ("Session lost") which didn't/don't fully work. -

Why are you posting outright untruths? I suggest you do some research first and ask the majority of cheat users about their experience. -

Note that BE cannot actually fix such hacks, only the engine can. Anyway, the devs are aware of this problem, so hopefully this will be fixed soon. -

I don't expect any praise, I simply expect no ungrounded hate, that's all. If you are going to post nonsense about BE on these forums I might step in once in a while. -

Well, you will probably be surprised when I tell you that I work on weekends as well (no, no one forces me to do that - rather because my work is so abysmal I really don't deserve any weekend). -

Did you do some research (other than watching YouTube videos) before making these claims? No excuses or anything, but it's funny no one ever attacks the almighty VAC in here. Oh yes, contrary to popular belief/knowledge (again) that one is being used in DayZ as well. -

FYI, I am the person that responded to you. Again, I can only assure that we are doing everything we can and what I told you is the truth. Contrary to popular belief we (BE) care a lot. Rest assured that BE is constantly evolving as well. -

Did you try this as well: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/201238-help-112555-beta-failed-to-install-battleye/#entry2024489? What exact error do you get? -

Please delete the following folder and then try again: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\BattlEye". -

$able replied to RadikulRAM's topic in General Discussion
Apparently this is an engine issue (maybe related to duping?) as the devs fixed ammo hacks a while ago. They even removed all hacked magazines during maintenance, so I'm not sure how something like that is even possible at this point. -

$able replied to RadikulRAM's topic in General Discussion
Oh believe me, I have 100-200 whine emails from those "idiots" in my inbox every single day. Only a few are bold enough to post about their "innocence" on forums. -
Correction: Normally updating the BEClient.dll in the BE install folder ("Expansion\BattlEye") should be enough, as the game will automatically update an old version in the appdata folder. Most likely there was an issue with his file permissions if that didn't work for him.

Damn, you got me! :blush: You couldn't be more wrong. I guess outside of your conspiracy world it has never occurred to you that over time many more games would want to use BE if it completely stopped hacking? This will always be the ultimate goal, call me crazy all you want. -

I don't know of any popular site that generates a massive income with DayZ hacks these days - correct me if I'm wrong. (No, I won't mention the reason again. ;)) -

You should see something like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Windows_7_UAC.png. If you don't please right-click on ArmA2OA_BE.exe, choose "Properties", go to the "Compatibility" tab and select the "Run this program as an administrator" checkbox. Then try to launch the game again. -

There are so many things wrong with this I won't even comment on it. But rest assured everything you just said is 100% false. -

Per Hicks: BattleEye now issuing bans for those who delete/alter PBO files
$able replied to haknslash's topic in General Discussion
Right, I still cannot actually "fix" (i.e. prevent) it. Are you seriously attacking me for actually detecting something now? And yes, intentionally manipulating your game to get an advantage is considered cheating/hacking, regardless of how exactly it's achieved. -

$able replied to haknslash's topic in General Discussion
He's actually right, BE has been banning PBO exploiters for quite a while (and yes, "GameHack #140" is related to that), although there have been several different detections over time. Brian referred to the most recent one, but actually it was already old news when he announced it. ;) Other than that, of course it's best for BI to properly fix this in the game, but BE can surely assist along the way. -

$able replied to RadikulRAM's topic in General Discussion
Actually he didn't talk about BE back then. The long-term goal is still to make the game's signature check work properly and faster. Also, what he mentioned is somewhat old news: ;) -

It's no longer possible to manipulate ammo values on the client. But yes, this fix obviously doesn't prevent duping. -

$able replied to RadikulRAM's topic in General Discussion
FYI, we (BE and DayZ devs) are aware of the new item-stealing hack and hopefully a fix will be provided ASAP. Please note that while BE can detect known hacks, it cannot fix underlying issues in the engine that allow such exploits/hacks. I'm really sorry guys, I know how frustrating the situation is. :( Infinite ammo was actually fixed with the last stable update, so what you see is hacked magazines from before the update that haven't been removed from the database yet. Hopefully those can be completely removed at some point. -
