Been Researching For Alternative Anti Cheat Programs

TDerden

Not everyone, but a good chunk of our competitive scene has been itching for a new anticheat for EGL other than ACP.

Here are some alternatives we can try voting on and I can try setting them up on my own computer:

sXe Injected: http://www.sxe-injected.com/features-5

punkbuster (although I'd have to see the cost of getting it licensed for crossfire) : http://www.evenbalance.com/index.php

EasyAntiCheat (same goes here - need to figure out licensing costs) : https://www.easyanticheat.net/

BattleEye (Figure out cost) : http://www.battleye.com/

and I keep keep trying to find others but sadly, tonight, I must go to sleep now.

Thanks for your input!

EDIT: Here are virustotal results for sXe Injected: https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/7e644c0c1f2bafe5b67a5519e10e95d5df229e429622eea418031215db117046/analysis/

*The scan says 1/56 detected a problem. I quickly looked up HW32.Packed.AFCB by BKav and it looks like a "false positive" ... Could be an update issue with BKav. But anyways it seems to be a legit anti cheat protection...going to try and run it to see what it's all about. Wish me luck!

EDIT 2: Anddd big fail because it seems as if this anti cheat will really only work for cs 1.6 and other half life mods...Sorry guys I'll keep looking!

BattleEye covers games like H1z1 if you could get that it would be cool.

Awesome idea, who'll be paying for the anti cheat though..

Abel95

The main here is, in order to get a good anti-cheat, we need to pay a large amount of money. Then there are other issues such as being compatible with X-Trap and CrossFire etc

TDerden

We could figure out a way to fund it if we get enough people involved. Depending on how much it is, we could essentially make a league that is pay to enter or pay to register to help support costs. I think people would be willing to pay a little bit in order to play with a better system and better anticheat.

Also, I've emailed punkbuster and am awaiting their response on what next steps would be to get them licensed with crossfire.

Was gonna post exactly that. Great idea, although there needs to be a big prize, ZP is fine tbh and if you are not happy with it then don't participate. We need help from the GMs aswell..

The gms still haven't come to a decision about a zp prize pool

They need to have a cash prizepool if they want to truly revive competitive. This worlds all about money, more money, more players, more sponsors and more viewers = more MONEY for them.

Someone track down jaguar. Even if our pc's are used to mine bitcoin atleast there would be no cheating.

Damn Jaguar is a legend get him ASAP.

I have contacted battleye.com, they are currently looking into EGL league and making a decision on wherever if they want to get involved. If they do then we have to pay a fee to use the anti-cheat system.
