Hackers

Hey guys, I'm part of a clan and we have been hacked during a game.

A player came into the server, was killed and respawned as a UBoat.
The u boat was about a quarter of the map in size. Dark Grey.

It had no matter, but rotated around the map until the server was disconnected. When it was reactiviated the server crashed, resulting in a lot of modifications and hassel.

Does anyone know what this is? Or how it is done?

We want to protect our clan from further attacks, and get it out there so it doesn't happen to your clan!

The person used a command the developers left in the game to spawn the sub.
You can get this fix for this here

All you do is replace a file on the server with this one and it will block anyone from doing it agian.
You'll need to have the server off while you change the file.

yea, I have seen people do that before.
it is kind of funny.

Druid, do you think that would fix the issue of people just showing up in a game that is hosting a custom map. that only you have?

friend was testing some new textures in a test map he made, and poof. 2 people connected and came in the game.. one after the other.
walked around and then left..

now thats spooky

I'm not sure if your serious or joking but the answer is no.
This is only 1 tiny change to remove the needed command that allows people to spawn stuff.

I don't know how anyone could even connect if they didn't have the same map.

Actually, what these hackers do is edit their player skin to be an object, such as a uboat. Then when they respawn after their initial death, they spawn as a uboat model. The server cant handle this and it crashes. We would need to create a mod that only allows human models to play in servers. Difficult, to say the least.

Yes.
At 1st we thought there was a slight chance someone could still get past mine. It turned out that if they tried, all that would happen is they would get an error message. Either way they wouldn't be able to spawn anything.

Crow impoved upon the original fix. To block anyone bypassing it before we were 100% sure about mine.You can find Crow's fix at mohadmin.com. Just do a search in the news section for "spawn"

I am being dead serious

A small map was made to test some textures converted over from bf42

and all sudden.. bam!

2 people connected and entered the game..
walked around, then left.
