I wish I knew where the cheats were stored in the game.... Probably self modifying code.

If I can do it, I'm going to write the OP2Sock with anti cheat technology built in (ie. it will detect the cheat code and either not let it work, or maybe even disconnect the player or something if it's used.)

Edit: I may warn people if they post cheats.

I will enforce a moderator query on you if you continue to post like you have been Luweeg.

Cheats can easily destroy a game. For instance, if you were playing against someone you know you could beat and suddenly you look over and they have a massive army of tigers when you don't even have Rare Ore and they don't even have trucks going to their smelters, wouldn't you say that its a bit out of balance?

1st moderator query.....ok i'm lost again

2nd it may not be fair, but it would be funny, just like in cs when you see a guy flying around and walking through walls and getting a headshot from 50 yrds with a ak

3rd (garrett i told you the democrats were coming) . . . i'm lost again

4th like anyone could read my unusual text anyway

A moderator query is when we have to go thru the work of previewing all of your posts before they can show up in the forums.

selfdestruct · « **Reply #28 on:** February 26, 2004, 05:33:32 PM »

ok im at loss, how do we know if some one is using a cheat and that the other person does not cheat, this is unfair to the people that do not cheat and thoughs have the advantage of knowing the cheats and using them.

Back on topic will this work with all operating systems, and how far has it been to geting it working so far?

Sirbomber · « **Reply #29 on:** April 21, 2004, 04:21:26 PM »

So, any updates? Just wondering since it's been about 3 months since the last post.

Phantom · « **Reply #30 on:** April 21, 2004, 04:26:44 PM »

I've been wondering the same thing. I can't play until I get that update. And believe me, I've tried everything else.

so hacker, how is the winsock rep coming?

BlackBox · « **Reply #32 on:** April 26, 2004, 02:29:48 PM »

It's kinda coming. I had yet another "revelation", and hopefully this time it will work.

Btw.. I know a lot of you are probably sick of waiting, and are probably angry at me..... but this is pretty high level programming, and network programming is not my strong point. But I can do it. It's also going to take longer considering this is a solo project.... I am getting no other help for it.

plymoth45 · « **Reply #33 on:** April 27, 2004, 09:22:22 AM »

I am not tired of waiting, cause i'm waiting to get my computer back. Once i have that back i start waiting for the rep

Kiith what happened to your comp? Hacker why don't you tell people what times your gonna be on so we can test it?

BlackBox · « **Reply #35 on:** April 27, 2004, 02:27:44 PM »

Alright, these are the times that I am on IRC (again, Quakenet channel #outpost2):
All times are Eastern Time (GMT-5).

Mon -- Fri: usually around 4pm - 10pm
Sat: usually not, but sometimes 6pm - 9pm
Sun: usually 3pm - 6pm, then 8:30-9:30pm after that.

Besides that, here are some early op2sock screenshots:

plymoth45 · « **Reply #36 on:** April 28, 2004, 09:22:41 AM »

Prime, do I look like kiith to you, or have you forgoten all about your old OP2 buddy Plymoth? And it is good to hear that the winsock is almost done.

Phantom · « **Reply #37 on:** April 28, 2004, 09:24:05 AM »

I too am glad that it is getting done.
Keep up the good work hacker!

(Yes, it all looks very nice)

Sirbomber · « **Reply #41 on:** May 06, 2004, 02:29:56 PM »

So... Any updates?

BlackBox · « **Reply #42 on:** May 06, 2004, 02:59:45 PM »

Not really..... I've been so busy with other stuff I haven't even touched op2sock.

I'll get back to it within the next few days, tho.

Sirbomber · « **Reply #43 on:** June 06, 2004, 07:28:58 AM »

I don't mean to be a nuisance,

but any progress? Just wondering because the last post was what, May 6th?

Leviathan · « **Reply #44 on:** June 06, 2004, 07:41:13 AM »

Sirbomber if u went on the forum chat room (#outpost2 on QuakeNet IRC) you would know this:

OP2Sock: ~90% done till alpha testing

that is from the topic of the room, a topic is a piece of text users can c and can b set by ops. ppl like me and xfir. it is very usefull for puting info in, like URLs.

Please could all users who read this start using the chat room while there online.
If you are unsure about how to get there go here:
http://www.www.outpostuniverse.net/irc.htm

Next weekend (June 11th - 13th) is our and the forums OP2 Renunion weekend, it will b held at the chat room, so please make sure you are on.

Sirbomber · « **Reply #45 on:** June 10, 2004, 06:38:04 AM »

My computer doesn't seem to want to let IRC to work, and the online version isn't working well either.

Anyways, okay, and I'll try to be on at the reunion thing.

BlackBox · « **Reply #46 on:** June 10, 2004, 07:35:43 AM »

If you can't connect or if it takes a very long time to connect and you have a router or some other NAT (hubs, gateways, etc...), forward port 113 (TCP) thru to the computer that will be using IRC. (This is the identd port - connects should be much faster)
