How to identify cheaters?

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I've recently become a server owner and just 5 minutes ago someone teleported everybody (27 people) to one spot to kill them. How can i find out who that was? I figured it would be in the scripts.log but i cannot find it anywhere.

Please assist me, so i can get rid of these fucking hackers so they cannot grief any others.

Thanks

Provider ?

Looked in \cfgdayz\BattlEye\ ?

U may or maynot have the following logfiles in there scripts.log / createvehicle.log / remoteexec.log

Look @ the remoteexec.log file if u got one.

Depending on your provider your scripts.txt etc may be outof date. I would recommend u ftp the following files into your \cfgdayz\BattlEye\ folder

And then restart your server

Provider is Zap-Hosting

In the remoteexec.log there is only this:

22.08.2012 23:00:34: _TheRED_[RUS] (217.118.90.26:14092) d6172da6f98a551583729c253f3409da - #0 "if (name vehicle player == TTT5NamePl) then {_xcompiled = compile TTT5derCode;call _xcompiled;};"

22.08.2012 23:00:34: _TheRED_[RUS] (217.118.90.26:14092) d6172da6f98a551583729c253f3409da - #2 "if (name vehicle player == TTT5NamePl) then {_xcompiled = compile TTT5derCode;call _xcompiled;};"

Thanks for you help, i really appreciate it. Could you elaborate some more on what my following actions should be?

Only update the scripts.txt?

I still don't have a clue who the hacker was. I could provide those logs if you want.

Update all 3 files in the link i.e scripts.txt remoteexec.txt creatvehicle.txt

Remoteexec.log = remote execution logging... <99% of the time anything here is a hacker>

Createvehicle.log = logs with spawning weapons / vehicles etc... <there will be alot of normal entries in here i.e player skins & backpacks>

Scripts.log == pretty much everything else

Anyway yep he/she is your hacker _TheRED_[RUS] (217.118.90.26:14092) d6172da6f98a551583729c253f3409da

So edit your bans.txt, format of line is the following

GUID TIMEFRAME REASON

-1 for timeframe = forever

d6172da6f98a551583729c253f3409da -1 TheRed -- Teleporting 26/08/12 

Log in via rcon after altering the file & use the command loadbans, or u can just restart the server.

Dont forget to backup logs & make a post about the ban. Incase someone complains u have logs as proof & according to admin server rules u need to make post about the ban.

Pretty sure not everyone bothers to make a post but only takes a minute or 2.

I keep it all in 1 thread i.e US819 + LU195 Banned List - Cheat Reporting - Day Z Forums theres afew other examples of hackers i caught in the logs there if u want to have a look
