A warning regarding hacking from Adventurine : Darkfall Online - Submissions

As this is an exploit site im guessing you all know about the modification of packets as a way of hacking online games, ie find out what what 'packet' is sent when you receive something like gold then try and keep sending that 'packet' to the server in hope of receiving the gold many times over(basically ).

Anyway lots of smart beta testers have been sending "spoofed" packets back to the darkfall servers which have caused some issues for the developers themselves, read below:

--

We have to keep the servers offline for a few more hours, since we have to enable more layers of security checks.
Some(very few) of the testers have been trying to modify the network packets going to the server.
This means that some points in our system have signaled to us that there are errors on the client-server communication. Since we are still in debug mode we have taken down the servers to check if there were any errors on our behalf. This is not the case.

Let this be the final warning to the ones that have tried this:

Anyone who tries to modify packets or the client (basically trying to cheat) will be insta-banned and kicked from the beta.

--

So basically we now know they do get an alert when a badly spoofed packet is sent back to the server --although-- it is hard for them to tell whether it was a server/client error or a spoofed packet.

Anyway if your in beta there is no better time to try hacking a game then while its free so keep at it

agreed.
We are all now realizing in trying to find a crack that they are VERY VERY VERY secure on their end for being such a small company.
but we shall suceed

We are already making great strides. Have a radar app that is about 50% finished. Going to show red/grey/blue as well as things like dead/alive players, their HP, etc.

Right now they have a ton of debugging messages in place, so when the client crashes, etc it sends back a full dump of processes running, what has been reading memory, etc. So anything like CE running when you crash, is pretty much insta ban.

Better tools that hide themselves from detection so far have been fine.

NOTHING BUT MUSIC TO MY EARS!!

rofl you'll deserve a prize if you release it before the game release

Very nice mate, unfortuantly its not Vanguard were dealing with this time round but im sure you can get some great hacks under way.

You do the hacks ill get us the dupes

Found 3 dupes in Vanguard and countless other ways to get infin money, hoping to beat my record in Darkfall.

ps: My vanguard account with the like 1000 plat of resources still hasent been banned lol.

lol my vanguard account got suspended for 3 days for duping. But when it was activated again it STILL had 80k+ plat in the mail from escrow lol

Keep in mind tho we need more dfo beta accounts guys. The game comes out in 2 weeks and frankly if we could get just a few more betas the radar and bots would be released VERY QUICKLY

pff i got perma banned in VG for 10% speed hack .. you lucker ^^
