Like I said, the HWID itself wouldn't be shared. When you ban a SteamID there would be something you would add to the ban command to issue a HWID ban on that SteamID as well. On Sat, Aug 24, 2013 at 12:27 AM, Mart-Jan Reeuwijk wrote: > Steamguard generates a random number for the client, which i

Steamguard generates a random number for the client, which is "linked" to the machine afaik with the steam client. You cannot get that one, that would be bad. The HWID, is generated at installation of steam I think, and is probably passed on to Valve at logon every time. Never really looked at

It really depends on how the HWID is generated and if they're fuzzy or not. It could literally be as simple as a 1 digit change to a MAC address on a NIC that's not even active, or it could stamp every piece of hardware that it can pull unique information from and fuzzy the shit out of it. On Fri

We've had a handful of these as well. It got to a point where we issued a 'ban on sight' order with 'alt account of ' as an acceptable ban reason without significant evidence. I think at one point it was even reported to his ISP and he got disconnected so he had to explain to mummy and daddy why

SMAC doesn't detect everything, and neither does others server side ACs. Some hacks are even designed to detect that SMAC is running on the server and disable features that are detected. 2013/8/23 Mart-Jan Reeuwijk > lol, that reminds me of a cheater years ago (~4-5 years), that always went > c

lol, that reminds me of a cheater years ago (~4-5 years), that always went cheating on a DODS server. Admins banned his account, 2 minutes later he was on the server again with another account. Every month he bought about 10-15 accounts to cheat ONLY on that community's server (no bans or stats

HWIDS are not stored due to Steam Guard. It only uses a cookie that is stored on your computer. They do keep HWIDs to keep a list of the accounts you connected to. Le 23 août 2013 02:45, "Scruppy Dawg" a écrit : > Everyone knows the HWIDs are stored due to Steamguard (Or some form of > HWID, anyw
