JakeXP 4 Posted August 4, 2012 Basically I'd like some input from other server admins and anyone who has had to deal with similar situations.There is a clan that frequents our server who we, as well as others on the server, have suspected of cheating / foul play for a while now. Their ability to find our vehicle locations almost instantly after relocating them is second to none, as well as seeming to know where we are. Twice they've waited for us to leave different camp locations to kill us. Both locations were opposite ends of the map. One of the times they had parked their ATV (which was ours, hidden in a completely different place that they managed finding before making their way to us) about 500 metres or so away whilst scoping out our camp with an AS50. Bearing in mind our camp was located beyond the peak of a hill meaning they had no sight of it from where they were, yet they knew we were there.Anyway, each time they've raided our camp and vehicles we've managed to find them again due to them hiding them in obvious places (along the top of the map) and us having a good amount of man power. Their very first camp we raided must have been there a while with 15 tents or so full of what appeared to be duped guns, ammo, supplies and coyote backpacks. Amongst these duped guns were 7 holographic suppressed M4s, which are not in the game as far as we're aware.So today after all of the suspicion I decided to take a look at the logs to see if there was anything else they were guilty of. I wouldn't say I was surprised when I saw 2 of their members both had the thermal AS50s as well as silenced PDWs. Fair enough if one of them had killed someone who had scripted them in, but both of them having the same loadout leads me to believe they actually do it themselves.I realise the first points I've mentioned are purely hearsay and don't really have any concrete evidence but I believe the scripted and duplicate weapons are surely solid enough to give me a reason to get rid of them.

Dev (DayZ) 113 Posted August 4, 2012 If someone decides to use a hacked weapon, they should expect a server ban if the admin finds out. Everyone is just going to assume they spawned it so it is stupid to use them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BabylonDK 7 Posted August 4, 2012 If someone plays on my server with hacked weapons they are getting a ban.In serverrules i wrote "Do not break the DayZ rules" and "Playing with hacked items / weapons equals ban"..The ban is only fair due to the gameplay.. No admins can see if thats the hacker, or just someone whom killed the hacker.I have killed alot of players with hacked items, and I just leaved the weapon and hided the body..

blake_synel 11 Posted August 4, 2012 Really funny.....You ban people with hacked weapons.....and same time admitting to have killed several players yourself with hacked weapons.......you misquote him. What he said is he killed people using hacked weapons and then hid the bodies of those individuals to remove them from the game... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JakeXP 4 Posted August 4, 2012 @ Drogur: I think he meant he killed players who possessed hacked weapons, not that he had them himself.And thanks all, I took the advice and went ahead and banned them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
de444 7 Posted August 4, 2012 You have an interesting story. ( no trolling ( (no scarasm))Hacks and Scripts have disturbed 2/3 servers. So am not surprised.To answer your question: Not without proof. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I2ejected 25 Posted August 4, 2012 Really funny.....You ban people with hacked weapons.....and same time admitting to have killed several players yourself with hacked weapons....You're taking it wrong, and he said it wrong.

tardis609 8 Posted August 4, 2012 It seems, that since weapons are eventually saved to the server, that Rocket could inspect everything saved in backpacks, tents and vehicles, and eliminate non-Dayz weapons, whatever.But - no; that seems to easy - plus, I'm sure he's too busy shuttling back and forth to the bank.

Tatakt 50 Posted August 4, 2012 the thing is, some hackers WARPS hacked weapons to your hand. i tried this before i was teleported up ontop of a silo, and lost all my gear, and i suddenly had a g36c in my hand, which i never picked up. there were no way down, and all the other players was ported up aswell.. i got banned like 2 minutes after for using a hacked weapon, which THE HACKER warped into my hands.. BANNED FOR NOTHING... that just a thing to think of next time banning someone with a hacked weapon.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
