Ways to protect yourself from getting busted?

[schuldig]

So I am thinking about buying the APB hack but recently RTW stated that they have been monitoring the cheaters and there will be a banwave coming soon. Is there any way to protect yourself against it? Like don´t cheat after an update or something similar? Or is it totally out of our hands?
I would not want to get my new acc busted immediatly.

Just dont use the aimbot since they "monitor" you, like you said, dont look at them when they are behind walls Shoot when you see them, like a legit player should do, or just dont use the cheat lol, you cheat so you choose for yourself if you wanna get banned or not.

[schuldig]

Well all I would do is using triggerbot or aimbot but with a very small angle and breastshots only, the monitoring does not worry me but its the time when the banwave comes, is there a way to protect yourself against or is it the hack like some kind of signature and everybody who was caught using it in the past 2 months (for example) will be banned?

Actually it's protected by punkbuster, right?

So, the publisher cant do anything. Punkbuster doesnt ban in waves. Its signature related. If the signature is cracked, the hack will be detected.

Thanks for helping me out (:
Yes the game is protected by PB. So when does PB actually start recognizing the hack signature? After an update? If thats the case I wouldn´t play the game with the hack immediatly after an update. Or is it a stealth update?
Or doesn´t PB need an update and it will just start recognizing the signature immediatly at some point?

[soulstar]

Hmm, a game update is different from a PB update.

But still, PB has obivous updates and silent signature updates, so it's always hard to know when you can play or not.

I made a tool to monitor all signatures so we know when a new signature is added ;)!

I am still kind of sceptical about buying an APB hack. Of course looking at your competitors but x22 seems like the most serious/save one. If this tech talking is already too much for a non-customer just tell me.
How will I be warned if a new signature will be added and is there a way to test it out in a similar game? I´d purchase a hack for another game just to see how good the protection is, or is it useless because x22 hacks/protection and punkbuster protection is completely different in every game?
Quick question, can PB "update" and scan the current game or does it only "update" after you close the game and play it the next time?

I guess the safest method would be to check on the private forums for reports if people have been starting to get banned.

schuldig, im with you
i feel like buying these hacks, but do i know that they are safe.
there is not "section" to see/check them
or even see what other members say about them.

is there a legit mode in instanthook ? ;)

[Apocaliptica]

of course, you can set your aim angle (fov) and smooth on the values you like to use.

[Klunz]

thankz but cant see ya settings :P

you can configure it to be legit, no big deal.

[Klunz]

Okay i can also see toastbrot's configs maybe that will help me :D

[nekoknight360]

Yea I like to buy APB the Life Time But I don't know if you guys update good or i can use the hack and never get caught. Hope its like mw2 you can keep hacking and not get ban and how good the updates are for this hack.

nice work bro :rockon:

Right now at this moment it is very secure. We shall see later down the road, but as x22 said about the tool, he put more effort into the cheat as we know if you get banned, your whole account gets wiped, which is very sad for those that put time and effort into their character. You guys can't use the tool, only x22 can, but this gets him a head start if a detection is going to catch us.

VAC² is a very good anti cheating tool :)
But it is always outdated *looool*.

The best is that the updates are applied whlile playing. So the cheater never knows it until you have an tripwire which will kill the process if the Update reaches your client :) I made some stuff for the battle.net

You just failed. Nobody was talking about VAC.

This is all about punkbuster.

[troniac]

Okay fail ! ^^ sorry never looked into punkbuster! ^^

Adjust, that PnkBstrA.exe has to ask for access to the internet in your firewall settings, PnkBstrA.exe only asks for access to the internet, when evenbalance updates their scans, and youll know when update is coming.But only PnkBstrA.exe, not PnkBstrB otherwise youll have to allow B.exe access everytime you join a server.

[troniac]

Then it is time to implement a TripWire System against the B.exe ;) this prevents every detection which is present and the future ones. TripWire Systems are Monitoring and Broadcast an Exit Command to all Cheaters, simple it might stop the process and kills it. But the Programmer is already screening the System, it is also important don't implement a monitoring direct into the cheat it could also be detected! :) But if you monitor it elsewhere it is possible to prevent thousands of bans with one ban.

Monitoring on Cheaters Client is an wrong feeling of safety! But x22 is not monitoring on clients this is very sympathique! It is a really clean coded cheat I like it and the dynamic load function :)

any words from admin if this works and is true?
also how often does such a scan happen?

thanks for the great info!
