RE: [hlds] Suggestion for VAC2.
I don't think that would be much of a problem... they are in violation of the User Agreement. VAC2 would of course have evidence to back up the reason why it banned that account. Anyway, most casual cheaters will not be bothered enough to risk their account, the rest of them would not have the money to sustain a lawyer long enough. And if someone does get the guts and the money (or they are banned by mistake), VALVe requires that a thorough investigation is held (or something like this). The 0.01 % of people that does get trough all that... well, that's collateral damage. I don't think its likely that VALVe would get sued for millions for a mistakenly banned account.

I'm sure that VALVe would be all over this if you offered to refund the retailers, and cover the legal bills from the resultant lawsuits filed by those who are banned and cannot play their games at all.

RE: [hlds] Suggestion for VAC2.
Another Suggestion, to really get people to fear cheating, after VAC2 having proven itself, make the ban steam wide, not just for the application being played, they should not be able to play anything at all, not even on non-secure servers. Don't even give them a chance to enjoy the game(s) they've tried to ruin for others. Just like with (what used to be) the Catholic church, if you want to repent, it will cost you money, in the form of having to buy another Steam Account. (No flame intended) We'll have to come up with a solution for the pubs though :/ (if clients want to play CS(S), boot to a clean image, where security disallows any additional files in the dir's (where possible). ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
RE: [hlds] Counter-Strike: Source update
Oh no, not this: "Equipping the silencer is canceled if the player switches weapons" Now i cant put my silencer on in a twitch and run from spawn all the way with a split second advantage... :/ that is when you have a freeze time less then 2 (or so) seconds (For those that don't know, you run faster with your knife in your hand, than with an m4) Now I have to guess when the sequence has finished... just like with reloading the m4, the animation is finished, but still cant shoot for about an half second (which is a eternity if you have a opponent shooting at you) ive been killed because of that stupid last half second too many times!! I guess I really have to make a pistol switch script now. By the way, it is rather funny seeing someone doing some sort of sequence (weapon pointing all over the place) and firing at me, and actually hitting me. (ask me for details if you don't know what in talking about) Oh well, I guess this update has _some_ advantages ;) Thanks Alfred Micha Vermeer -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Alfred Reynolds Sent: Thursday, March 24, 2005 3:40 AM To: hlds_linux@list.valvesoftware.com; hlds@list.valvesoftware.com; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [hlds] Counter-Strike: Source update We have released an update to Counter-Strike: Source.
