mouse software isn’t a cheat, i use a programmable mouse so i can press MB8 but it sends the input for CTRL + NP9 to rangefind or i can press MB5 but the input is sent as RCTRL + NP1 to send “I agree” radio message
this isn’t some rare thing either, a lot of mouses (mice?) have this functionality build in and ready to use out of the box
Hi, in a couple of weeks I am planning to do some more FM testing with the Flanker. Some of the charts available are SEP values for a set G load over a range of speeds. Testing this with a joystick leads to very imprecise results, as it is very hard to hold constant 3G / 5G while the aircraft accelerates.
So my plan is to hook up a PID controller to a virtual joystick, which will control the aircraft for me (after some tuning) to get the required data.
Would this joystick emulator be banned under the new anti-cheat (I don’t even know that for the old one)?
I feel like this moving to BattlEye will cause a massive problems wave and player getting pissed off by BE causing problems to them, may even be permanent bans because of GeForce Experience or an automatic update by Logitech G Hub middle of a match.
Hi, how will the transition be handled for MacOS players? I believe EAC was handled a bit differently on Mac compared to PC, and I don’t remember having to ever install or activate anti-cheat manually.
Same like for others:
Replacing the anti-cheat system on a specific device may take a little time and will happen when launching War Thunder. In the future, when you launch the game, you’ll be greeted by a window with the new anti-cheat system. Globally, the transition will occur gradually in waves, meaning both anti-cheats will be supported for some time. However within a few weeks, we’ll completely switch to BattlEye.
Same as for any anti-cheat software. It’s not aimed at me, so I do not care which one is installed as long as it make cheaters to suffer.
We all agree on cheater need to suffer, but what about innocent people that would somehow get banned by BE for some reason?
ummm no thats not how it works my man it literally states that It only affects war thunder not your computer
BEAC is kernal level and can see the page.sys file and what processes are in active memory, it does have access to your system and its files and what is running and what is interacting with other software
this will always happen nothing is perfect.
Poke me when you get “somehow get banned” and we will check it. Right now you are making up scenarios.
yea but it still only affects war thunder files
doesn’t change the fact that it has full system access, it’s how it detects suspicious software, whether it’s a cheat engine or just hardware acceleration software
I searched but couldn’t find an answer myself.
I do not currently use macros myself but i have seen that some players do. For example creating a macro such that a player only presses “q” on their keyboard but the output into the game is several key binds in a row (like: change radar scope scale, change radar search mode and change radar/IRST mode all in one keypress).
Is there an official stance on using macros?
I have seen speculation online that Battleye uses a blanket ban list for several games such that you can get banned in one game for cheating which results in you getting banned in several other games that also uses BE at the same time. Is this a functionality that exists and if so will it now apply to WT?
For example: a player has a previous ban on a game that uses BE but have been playing War Thunder without cheating and without issue due to it having EAC, would that player now run a risk of getting banned from War Thunder due to this change and the previous BE ban even though they haven’t cheated in WT?
Battleye doesn’t do that, and never has.
Every player that has claimed that cheated in the game they got banned from.
Otherwise they’d be banned from Arma 3 which coincidentally none of them are.
tbh if you cheat in COD its naive thinking you wont cheat in War Thunder… thats my opinion.
Always have to assume the worst scenarios will happen to prevent it. Careful is never too much. We will see.
a quick google search has disproved your ‘point’
in addition to this, there are hacks that can be used to get other non-cheating players banned, as documented here and from last month too
They hide their games, they have no game bans on Steam for other games, and people are capable of lying.
So yeah, they cheated in Destiny.
i cheat in Spore, i use adddna and change my archetype
i cheat in HOI4, i use pp, command power (rather not acronym it), research on icon click and end wars when i like
i have not cheated, nor do i ever plan to, in an online game.
