Speed Hacker Caught!

[BioHazard1987]

Hello Renegade X Community,

During one of my live streams I managed to catch a speed hacker. He goes by the name of -N@Ruto-. Sadly I am unsure if anything can really be done to the player (ex: ban), but I figure I would plaster his name in the forums so that server admins are aware of him and know to kick him on sight. Though if he is clever he will just change his name.

Here is a link to a highlight that fully exposes him using the speed hacks:

Be sure to spread the word. Hopefully the Devs can find a way to disable this hack.

As long as the game embraces total anonymity, you cant ban them, they can just log on with another name.

A ban works IP-based. A diffrent name isn't going to change this.

Wow, how does the engine even permit this

I met a speedhacker called no0ne yesterday,sadly I didnt get any video of him.

I am kinda afraid that hackers might just kill this game,because currently it has pretty much no protection against them.

It has IP bans and server owners have the option to ristrict servers to steam users so that players can get banned based on steam account aswell. We will also add more functionalities to demos to show players steamid for example. Server owners could then for example set the server to always record a demo. Then you just need to name the time you saw a cheater and they can be banned after verifying it in the demorecording.

Looks like you guys managed to find a fix for it. I will post the link to the fix incase server owners haven't seen the original post.

Lets just hope that this is the only hack/exploit that is found with Renegade X. Keep up the good work guys!

yo i saw him as well i did a post topic about the same thing lol and the same guy i think the issue is that like people said can't ban them because can change name ect but if there was admins for servers then can just so a fast kick tho but 70% of the busy servers don't have admins

This is just fucking stupid.

Game is out for like 1-2 weeks and it's already full of speedhackers. Can't play a game without there being a speedhacker ingame.

A game full of hackers is not a good way to advertise your next game as a company, just saying. You can't even kick them because noone reads that tinyass vote or chat with message being displayed for like 100milliseconds.

Oh my god.

There where people hacking ren x the day it came out.

I wonder if there was beta testers creating hacks for renegade x before release so they could use it when it was released.
