HeyYou Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I thought we weren't in to dictating to mod authors the best ways to spend their modding time... Not dictating at all. Just informing him what I view as the general sentiment....... his conditions on the use of his mod would not prompt me to download and play it.

Ranokoa Posted September 14, 2011 Author Share Posted September 14, 2011 (edited) EDIT: I am going to ignore every comment from someone who obviously didn't read a single thing, or answer any more questions about anything I've already said over and over.

SomeWelshGuy Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I don't get what you're asking though. You can't stop cheating, you can't stop people editing your mod in the CS, you can't disable the console. I get why you'd want to try to stop this but the fact is that you can't, so it's simply wasting time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranokoa Posted September 14, 2011 Author Share Posted September 14, 2011 Welsh, if you read the other comments you WILL get it. Try from page 2 and on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeWelshGuy Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I've read the whole topic. That's why I said because of your minigame and hiscore system I get why you'd want to try to stop cheating. But you can't, that's the fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranokoa Posted September 14, 2011 Author Share Posted September 14, 2011 (edited) Welsh, trust me, you have not read it all. Your questions make it very very very obvious. Let me put it this way: The answer is said several times throughout this topic. Edited September 14, 2011 by Ranokoa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeWelshGuy Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 To quote you: "I am asking for methods that deter cheaters, add extra steps and road-blocks to make it harder to exploit."There aren't any methods to deter cheaters. That's what I'm saying, it's impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyYou Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 You can make it difficult, but, that's about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranokoa Posted September 14, 2011 Author Share Posted September 14, 2011 (edited) Read post # 69, 54, 22, 28 and the OP. Also, you can disable the console command, or make it do something entirely different. I've already stated my intention for the console command, and I've already said that I can't make it impossible to cheat, or even hard, just "harder". Also, google definition: Deter1. Discourage (someone) from doing something, typically by instilling doubt or fear of the consequences.1 Edited September 14, 2011 by Ranokoa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomeWelshGuy Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 But you're still wasting time and effort. If someone is that desperate to fake a highscore then they will do anything to get there. Using TES4Edit it's so easy to see exactly what the mod does, and how it does it. No matter how complicated you try to make scripts, or use wild edits to distract attention away, your esp file is basically a huge list to everyone of what changes you're making to the game. If someone wants to cheat, no amount of deception will stop them, and you just end up wasting time and potentially breaking your mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
