Cases of autoban in 1.1 (report here)

[Brahma]

We tested and re-tested the AC1.1 in the last weeks, and we did not have one single case of false positive in these tests.
The laggers are flagged as "laggers" and are treated in a special manner, and we tested with many laggers in these weeks. So it is very improbable to have "false positive", and if honest people are really being kicked, it is more probable to be a bug in the anticheat engine.

If you got auto-banned and (obviously) you were not cheating, please, try to get the demo of the game and post it here. Additionally I ask to the server owners to post here the logs of the incident. With this information I will be able to fix possible bugs and/or lower some thresholds.

Well I just got banned from the mys.aa.am 3010 server while playing an inter. I was lagging a bit, a lot right before it happened...and now I'm banned! Someone from that game should get the demo!

[#M|A#Wolf]

DogDancing: I actually tried to get the demo of that game just to look at it again, though it said the server doesn't record demos (which btw why doesn't it?), maybe Panda can check the logs or something.

Just a heads up,
Adam, shorty and xfa are banned so there are 3 more false positives. Think Ill wait till the update to install that...

There's a demo of Atrimos and SercartY getting kicked for "hacking".

I was playing in that match, as well. Then the server had that weird lag spike...and then I got auto-banned. I thought maybe my wireless connection had bugged up but judging by what I see in that demo that was not the case.

My brother (pup3tt) was playing on the same connection and only I got the boot. :/

EDIT: My account on here must have been pruned out. Figures since I haven't posted in a long while.

The forum was started from scratch and everyone had to create a new account.

Here is a copy of my serverlogs and associated demos of autokicks and bans. There are quite a few :(

Also my server keeps losing the registration from the masterserver for some reason.

[S!GH]

I was banned yesterday on Maxfrags.com (66.7.196.93:28779) and today twice on Mys Match (84.23.72.11:21111) for abnormal behaviour and abnormal client behaviour.I´m running AC on linux (10.04) and compiled AC myself.

Ubuntu.

Ok... there was a bug in server side (my fault), that were changing the z of the shots in some maps (and this is *not* related to the anticheats)... but it was producing a lot of "suspect hitbox" entries...

SORRY.
This is already fixed in the SVN, and *any* honest client could produce that.

ac_keller was one of the maps....

[Bullpup]

ac_keller
anyone notice if this map is the one adding cause to buffer overflow?

[RIPBillyMays]

Just got autobanned from a pistol frenzy on ac_keller.
I didn't get a demo, but it was on the http://www.ac-news.tk server.

[Luc@s]

Batmagood was banned on ac_urban for "speedhack". But I think this bug is already fixed ?

[ElCrema]

I got banned from some of the MyS server after a fierce lag, "abnormal client behavior" or something like that was the message.

[Panda]

Brahma please release the fixed server binary so we don't have this kind of problem any longer :)

[lordamit]

same here. I got auto banned today.

you may download it from the SVN repository na ?

[ElCrema]

Yeap, the SVN has lots of bugs fixed :D

[Luc@s]

Let's changed the question :
who was NOT auto-banned :D

[#M|A#Wolf]

meeeee

[Luc@s]

oh it's you ? :D

[Alpha-Jet]

Banned yesterday on MyS server on map ac_elevation after 5 / 10 minutes of games.
" behavior client "
I haven't the demo. :/

btw : Thanx for your work Brahma !
AC without cheaters is .. <3

[lordamit]

I wonder how we are supposed to get the demos when we are banned and can't even connect -_-!

[#M|A#Wolf]

You ask the server owner...

[Panda]

Better ask someone who was on there with you, most servers don't record demos to harddrive. It's not a default setting and my servers don't do it for example.

I'm wondering if a simple utility for server owners could allow player to download demos via the web, similar to how some w00p demos are available online. No need to store vast libraries; just those available to players in game.

[Panda]

Btw. since the update nobody was autobanned on my servers and there were just a few people with anticheat loglines (about 3).

[fu.uuuuuuuuuuuuuu]

i got "auto kicked"
was when i get a flag, run and hide. So after some time i got kicked by inactivity. When u get a flag u supposed to hide from others, u shouldnt be trusted like a camper or afk. So i try get the demo, and there is another bug: the demos says a thing but shows other map in a match wich i dont played.

here a video

[Brahma]

This is not a case of autoban...
Anyway, do not camp... :P
