Per Hicks: BattleEye now issuing bans for those who delete/alter PBO files

Recommended Posts

I saw heaps of Players getting the bannhammer yesterday upon joining some reg. Servers. Most had clantags wich was really amusing.

Tried it a couple of months ago (when I was getting bored of DayZ) before I quit and deleting PBOs worked. I thought there's no point playing when people can still do this shit.... No I didn't play with "no trees, buildings and rocks" I logged into a server, saw it worked and logged.

 

Haven't gotten banned btw, so I doubt that many people will get caught for this, especially if they haven't done it for a while. 

 

Glad it's finally in place, to be honest I'm not sure why the PBO check wasn't there from the get go - since they knew about it from the mod.

 

 

EDIT: Also in the mod I had a clan buddy who had their PBO files corrupted when checking game integrity. How do I know he wasn't lying? Because this was way before anyone was talking about this. None of us had any idea wtf was going on. If he was the driver he could drive through trees and everyone in the car including the car would be fine. We never found a solution online (before this PBO deleting thing became popular) so he reinstalled the game and that fixed it.

It was for both the RAMDISK (which you weren't banned for) and this.

 

And - how do you know?

Lol Be-Sable asked the same thing,i will say this the only thing it was for was the RAMDISK,the pbo files if they where altered where only kicks nothing more...

Ask Sable she will tell you the very same thing..

The files are now included in the scam process to see if there been altered and now gets a ban for it..

There are specific vales...if changed you get a ban..

Pretty simple if you ask me,that's why i said before that VAC and BattleEye needed to lift there game..

Simple detection methods tbh...

Corrupted files wont get you banned either just saying....

So players cant use this either..

Wall glitching and PBO modification isnt the same thing mate.

You can wall glitch with a perfectly legal copy of the game.

Which we should always try to remember is a glitch/exploit in a piece of alpha software that is being worked on.

Bit funny when zombie can punch you so hard, that you fly through wall and land at ground floor.

Happened to my buddy just yesterday in police station (1st floor).

If you want to be banned yer you can..

You misunderstand who its being picked up or how there doing it in the first place...

I just hope the devs take another approach and add some other files that have more damage than glitching in walls....

Btw, PBOfile banning is not new. BE bans for PBO file manipulation for atleast 2 months now. How do I know? I once got so mad at wallglitchers that i manipulated the PBO files to teach them a lesson. I knew I was yelding to the dark side by doing this, and got promply banned for it. Well deserved for letting madness take hold on me.

I shouldve known, as back then, i have experienced very few to no PBO file cheaters roaming around.

So... my friend got kicked yesterday for a faulty gear_cookingpot.pbo or something but he never changed his gamefiles. can you replace missing or corrupted .pbo files by checking the game content in steam or what? Also I hope you see by the filename alone that it would be pretty pointless to be able to see through cooking pots :lol:

If he only got kicked then I would say it is WAD.

No Sir. the message from Beye definitely said .pbo

Yes, but it kicks and bans if you modify crucial pbos. So if he was only kicked then it makes a distinction and thus WAD. Your friend should ofcourse verify integrity of files and/or reinstall to fix the corrupted files, but I see nothing problematic about the kick.

No they haven't and any misleading info like you just posted is utter bs.....

It was a kick and nothing more..

Trust me because players would have been banned left right and centre..and they haven't...

Maybe you could ask Sable to verify it..because its only just new..

There has been a massive increase in them over the last 2months because they knew they could get away with it,just like the ammo counts but i suspect now that file may come under closer inspection....

Is RamDisk safe to use with DayZ?

I got the discount for the app after buying an AMD card and was going to let my son use it on his PC

Well why did I have to make a new steamaccount then? I was globally banned and once the server shows up I can prove it. You have no clue. They do the PBO file banning for a long time now, I suspect you haven't played as much. Did you never notice the sudden end of genuine shooting through walls and people who can walk through walls but being unable to walk stairs? Also PBO file glitchers with Mosins tend to have measy rates of fire, since the legitimate players in buildings are floating up and down, sometimes rapidly, in their point of view.

 

Do some research on youtube. There is a scumbag out there called  <SNIP>. Showing the PBO file shit in effect. I suspect its okay to hint to that glitch now, since BE detects and bans it successfully. Mods, please don't hide my entire post if I'm wrong, just delete the related sentences.

Please post true info regarding this,because go to the last post.....

 

http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/199181-please-can-you-see-your-way-to-eliminating-the-wall-glitch/

 

Now tell me you where pbo glitching....

Or this.....

  1. please fix the jailvbuilding glitch so many people are exploiting it :(

already resolved. Will see it in 0.45
 

 

So to say you got globally banned for it,is utter nonsense tbh...

You where doing something else and not pbo file changing..

Want a longer rope?People like you make me laugh tbh...

Ofc I was PBO file abusing. and how do I prove it? there is no log whatsoever, all i can do is post the number I get from being banned which is #4f84b6. When I was banned the reason was statet as "Gamehack" and I remember being midly upset then thinking "what? Gamehack? Mh, maybe one could call PBO-file-cheating a hack...okay, I kinda deserved that...fucking wallglitchers made me do this shit..."

 

What do you think is more likley? Me deliberatly lying for no damned reason whatsoever (what would be my intend, srsly?), or brian hicks being informed about this by BE very late OR Brian Hicks telling us this info very late because it slipped his mind or something.

 

And now think again. When was the last time you got shot through a wall from a distance? Not by wall glitchers, but you are in a building, you hear gunshots from afar and they hit you when there is no wallglitcher around, and you never hear an impactsound against stone or anything. And they hit you with low rate of fire.  <--Thats the symptoms of PBO file abusing. And I haven't had that in 2 months or atleast 6 weeks.

 

I screenshotted the bancode-message back then and found the screenshot. It was the 5th of May, want me to post it? But what would that prove? I dunno if you can acess the fileinfo and it being displayed correctly that it was created on the 5th of May. Also I have no screenshot of the PBO file abuse attempt, as it failed spectacurlarly. (I was killed by a sniper before I could fire a shot at the wallglitchers).

Just like i said lol,it never had a thing to do with pbo files trust me...

So the dev Brian Hicks is lying now..are you saying that?

The last time was 2days before Hicks posted that..and it was at top airfield....

There was 6 guys inside the jail cell i was talking to them,trying to get them to talk so i could get there names come up on screen..

Do you want a bigger shovel?

It was told by Sable that this issue wasn't there problem but the Devs teams,because of the lack of file integrity on there side...

And i was saying to them its not a hard fix to stop this issue...

And now they have 1...

All it needed was to be added to a scan from them nothing more...

Its like the damage mod that was in bf3,editing certain files allowed you to get away with heaps till that file is added to the scan process...

Babypuncher, you're geniunly stupid. Read my freaking post. Borom, how many hours of playtime do you have? Maybe you attributed the events to the wrong cause. Are you SURE no one was inside the wall?

 

Okay now last attempt to put babypuncher in the right place:

 

"So the dev Brian Hicks is lying now..are you saying that?"

-No, you I said that either it slipped his mind or BEdevs didnt communicate it to Brian sooner. Thats what I fucking said

 

"The last time was 2days before Hicks posted that..and it was at top airfield....

There was 6 guys inside the jail cell i was talking to them,trying to get them to talk so i could get there names come up on screen.."

-See below:

Not by wall glitchers, but you are in a building, you hear gunshots from afar and they hit you when there is no wallglitcher around, and you never hear an impactsound against stone or anything.

I stated clearly FROM A DISTANCE, and NO WALL GLITCHERS. What do you not understand?  A genuine PBO file glitcher doesn't mess with you, he just kills you because UNLIKE wallglitchers, PBO filecheaters CAN SHOOT THROUGH WALLS. At ANY DISTANCE and they can NOT walk up stairs.

I was on the top of one of the unenterable factories in Svet, near the dock.  I saw the guy, we'd been fighting him for a bit.  He was below me very near the building.  He started shooting at me when I was near the edge, so I backed up.  He was pretty much directly under the building, so there was no possible way for him to see me as I moved towards the center of the roof and crouched/went prone.  The entire time he continued to shoot, up through the building/roof at me, eventually killing me.

 

I've got 360 hours.  I know the guy was a least duping because I knocked him out prior to that event and he had an infinite ammo mag.  Not saying all people with duped mags are necessarily doing other cheats, but all evidenced pointed to this guy being some sort of hacking scumbag.

Never had some one shoot me through a building before that point.  Had people pop out of walls to shoot me etc, but not through like that.
