If it is not too much trouble to share it, I'd like to have a look at your route out of curiosity.

You park the car right where CJ spawns after the mission fails. That is probably the reason.

Flying, stop the High Fade haircut bullshit. At least until it is figured out how you lost muscle in your attempt when Reset does not in his 4:02. If you don't lose muscle, high fade is not good enough.

Flying has not proven anything. If are smart you can learn to hide a lot of forms of cheating:

He shows some mouse configuration program showing his scrolling without the mouse making noise: He could have recorded legitimate scrolling and played it back. He could have had his mouse miles away from the microphone. The thing is that these accusations were quite funny since this mouse is known/"known" from checking review videos to be silent when scrolling slowly (which you do in runs) and loud when scrolling fast. It started out very suspicious but was debunked fast.

He shows some files: Just edit the data in RAM. It is easy, but I will not give you a tutorial. :D You can ask for a RAM dump - he can temporarily revert changes and temporarily detach his manipulation program from the game.

He shows his taskmanager: You can hide processes. Remember that Flying is knowledgable about computers.

A hand cam cannot be fooled, afaik. I don't know if those/some of them have variable delay, though, so that the game feed and handcam feed do not match up. Also, you would need two of them. ^^ That is something I would only force cheaters to go through, though. ^^

E: We can catch dumb cheaters, though, who mod vehicles that are used in W-only drives to drive way faster. :D And then believe it was just a botched game or something and call it a day.

I am not aware of stupid things Mh did before deleting the LB or Joshimuz defending him. Examples?

GermanyPatrick_6 years ago

Yes, download some other version. My plan with the patch was overly cumbersome.

Share the two txt files it talks about. missing_files.txt and wrong_files.txt

Seems likes I shared an old version, oops. Or never uploaded the new one anywhere.

GermanyPatrick_6 years ago

You can check your files with this:

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/271678097600806912/483342104828051457/only_check_files.bat

I know it relies on jp_cnvrt_files from the converter, maybe more. Just put the whole converter into the VC directory if it isn't already and then add this .bat file (again to the VC directory) and run it.

If it tells you something is wrong, share the text files it refers to with us (missing.txt and wrong.txt IIRC).

I can share the bad files with you if needed.

That can be done. There has been a simulation for which layout is best, but with unsubstantiated assumptions (how often which button is pressed). This layout won: Dvorak for people who only have a left hand.

You can use Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator to create something even better (I don't know how you would do that. You cannot map WASD to "non-cheat keys" (like F-keys) with it).

I have heard that Pac has a backup. I can imagine he is not very motivated to clean up the shit that some guy we trusted made.

GermanyPatrick_6 years ago

You entered a cheat, the text box is overwritten right away.

UrManDan, please post only when you have something valuable to say. Opinions are rarely valuable. You can use the thumbs-up ("like") button to show that you like something.

I don't know how old this is, but pause buffering while on fire, while slow, conserves health. I lost ~5% health compared to the normal ~40%. Jumping did not help (as was suggested in 2013^^).

GermanyPatrick_6 years ago

Oh, you mean the Badlands mission. ^^ I don't know why he has not submitted it, but Blantas has already done the wasted warp strategy:

E: Probably, he enters the bike right after entering the mission trigger (like you do before Outrider and Gray Imports). Then he drops the call button right after losing control - which happens right after the fade to black is over.

At first, the idea was to get om0 and "cancel" the Race thread with some mission that does not crash when doing so. I then had some other idea: Make sure that the race ends right before the mission starts (hold F): (onmission = 1 after that, I doubt that you can end up with om0 again, but not all hope is lost.) Almost all missions should be supported: [1:06 PM] Patrick: Afaik, the only requirement is that the mission sniffer ("""marker""") causes a fade before starting the mission. You want both fades (race-end-fade, mission-about-to-start-fade) to happen at the same time. Your time window is big for that (the race fade is 1s, IIRC - or is it 2?)

The rest of this post is just failed ideas. I have not fully tested them all, though.

  1. Enex triggers are disabled (you cannot enter buildings during races).

  2. Tuning garages: I had a look at the code that disables the tuning garage during races. With $CARMOD_DISABLED_FLAG == 1, the tuning shops almost literally do nothing, not worth testing. Btw, Driving School does not set this flag, disables the tuning garages themselves so that they do not open. You can prevent them from closing in the first place before starting Driving School by parking a car in there, though (Blantas finding).

  3. Save points I could not get them to work, yet. That was before I had the genius idea to hold F to cancel the race "menu", I do not see how that helps, though.

  4. Using properties instead of missions [4:58 PM] hobrev: oh yeah Patrick, can you buy safe houses with that race failing thing? [...] [5:05 PM] hobrev: he buys an extra safehouse during LS, which he stores the Remington at, so he doesnt have the money for the Dillimore safehouse when he goes there for Catalina [5:07 PM] hobrev: he gets it after Trucking 2, which isnt a huge timeloss but still, inconvenience. If one can buy a safehouse during the fadeout of a failed race then maybe it could be possible to buy the Willowfield safehouse during one of the flying races, saving 10k for the Dillimore safehouse [5:33 PM] Patrick: It has worked the one time I tried it (I ended up at the "race marker" - where you get to the race menu when entering. [5:34 PM] Patrick: But you can get the Property Buying Mission at any point from 0 to 20 ? frames after picking it up - so. [5:34 PM] Patrick: I cannot imagine that being consistent. [5:40 PM] Patrick: There is no way of delaying the moment the mission is started, either, apart from getting om1 via a phone call and dying: https://i.imgur.com/vAfCmpd.png [5:41 PM] Powdinet: dying is not a good idea [5:41 PM] Patrick: 😄 [5:42 PM] Patrick: yes

Well, is this bullshit?^^ I don't know but Flying wanted it figured out why the Hydra did not spawn after 100% completion. I cut it too short, oops. ^^ 100% rewards were given at the end of the clip. 100 percent rewards are given on a 3s cycle

(The purpose was to collect an oyster, click on the "watch full video" button to see which one)

"I can't do it so I'll just give up without trying" - please kill off this attitude, it is sad. D:

E: Not doing all strats at first is reasonable, ofc, but a 20min+ skip should be done right from the start, IMO.
