Hello to all passionated online gamers.
I proudly announce the development start of our new program called PGL Macth Sneaker.
This PGL Match Sneaker, next to my new ban system (read more about the ban system Here! ), is my second approach to preserve fair competition for online gaming and competition ladders. I wont stop there as i got a few more projects that i will achieve in the next weeks to come.
This PGL Match Sneaker Program will not find every cheat as there are some that are invisible, even from the players view. None the less it will be a very good way to prevent the use of a good range of cheats.
What does this program does?
In a nutshell:
The program works by sessions. For each match round u have to give a name to the session which is actually the name of the match plus the map u will play on.
Example: GR PGL Match 4x4 KoD vs FGL map1 CastleDay.
When this is ready u can then return to your game and wait the launch of the match round. When the round starts, u'll simply have to hit a hotkey that will start the screencapture session.
During that session the program takes about 10 screenshots of your screen at random time intervals.
When the match round is done u will have to hit another hotkey that will terminate the screenshot session or wait till the time runs out for that particular session.
When the screencapture session is terminated, the program will then compress all the screenshots taken as a zipfile and name the file including the player name, match round name, date, time and player guid before it automaticly sends the untouched file to our webservers.
This means that the ss taken during a match cannot be altered as the player himself does not interact during this whole procedure unless to start the session itself.
This way we will have an exact view of what the player himself sees on his screen and will reveal us if he was using any game cheats that is visible at the eye.
Find more information about our developments Here! .
In my opinion the solution and answer to good anticheat programs does not come forth from very expensive developments or difficult technical solutions as they require constant updates and research. I honnestly believe that the solution is way more simple then most of us are thinking or looking for.
