IL2 and Sound Modding

[Santa Claus]

CKY_86

I can enter UK dedicated at anytime and use the "sound mod" as a way to cheat.

You implied the CRT=2 blocks sound mod cheaters... I'm letting you know that it does not block them all. Just because you don't know how, doesn't mean its not happening.

If you look at the ntrk I posted I was able to choose and fly the Lerche in any server I wanted (go to external views and you can see it fly in one or more of the tracks)... including those with CRT=2

Its not a trick track, it wasnt changed afterward and it wasn't done by making some file read only like someone else suggested.

A Lerche was used to make it obvious. The chat was used to see if the players in the server felt it was a cheat....obviously they did. I wanted to make sure that they saw it...not only on the scoreboard but also in the game. If nobody could verify it was there...then the track would have been a waste if time.... Actually, it was a waste of time for some people.

What was said in chat, doesnt change the fact that a plane considered to be a cheat, by the players on the server....was able to fly.

CKY_86 if you would like to PM me, maybe we can sync schedules and I'll meet you in UK server for a minute and let you record the track so you know its not a trick????? Although this really doesn't matter. The modders/hackers know that the "sound hack" can be use to cheat in any crt=2 server using many creative ways.

How widespread it is...who knows. The fact that it can be done causes problems and arguing online. (Not just here)

In Summary... checkruntime settings do not guarantee honest play.
(As someone else mentioned... checkruntime should be used... it does help)

In the spirit of Christmas...Maybe every person who has downloaded the "sound hack" is a good honest person. If we all stick our heads in the snow, maybe we can continue to believe that.

***Warning.... Do NOT stick your head in the snow that looks like this forum.

Ho Ho Ho

Happy Holidays to All
