Silkroad Online Forums

When silk started up Hackshield showed up in the bottom right corner...plus theres a folder for it too.

It doesn't seem to as agressive as some other games I've played though. (such as preventing me from opening stuff other than the game)

Think this will amount to anything?

Doesn't seem to be applied right tbh...

Probably just as fake as gameguard, but we'll see.

I know its running though, while in game its preventing me from using advanced features of my keyboard such as adjusting volume or hotkey buttons to open up calculator program, browser, ect.

It seems to be very weak protection as of right now however I tried running cheat engine to test how strong it is and it immediately closed/crashed it.

I just noticed this as well when updating, the "silkroad guard" showed a either update bar or loading bar.

I wonder how this affects SRO on Linux. It might prevent cheats in SRO, but I don't think it could prevent other programs from running, especially those run by root.

I bet you did. Blatent botter

That's some accussation mate. I'm too lazy to report it but atleast I got on quote so you can't change it muhaha

Yeh, and I got on quote 'I tried running cheat engine to test how strong it is and it immediately closed/crashed it.", why would he even have a cheat engine on his computer if he wasn't intending on using it?

Oh he was intending on using it, to try it out if it works. There is no need to think he actually bots right away unless you got some proof of his botting humping a wall?

Stop complaining , I have cheat engine as well. Just so you know , cheat engine is somewhat useless on sro. Since everything on sro is server sided.

You're really not helping saving yourself... you're just proving you've tried to use it? :/

To see if it works, now just shut it cuz there is no use in accussing without some real proof of him ingame botting.

Why would you want to see if it works without the intention of using it? You wouldn't care if it worked or not.

Just to see whether JM has applied it right. Or to see if tehy've failed again maybe?

Yeah, of course, lol.

I guess you can't use CheatEngine for anything anyways? What would you do? Speed things up abit, lol ?

CheatEngine is only good for browser games if you're too lazy or too newbie to defeat the lvl (yeah, I use cheatengine for browser games too) lol

this.
i used cheat engine on several flash games and on some of my wifes facebook games.

the only way someone could use cheat engine with sro is if they were a bot maker and were looking for memory addresses for things.

Bots are already logged in.. also the Hackshield log show the following:

[ 2010/ 1/19 - 2:43: 4:295] [AHNHSUPDA] Start
[ 2010/ 1/19 - 2:43:17:846] [AHNHSUPDA] End

Meaning Hackshield starts and close right after not even 15 seconds...
So it's not running. Its about as fake as gameguard.. what a useless amount of space to put on my computer joymax.. thanks alot.. dont even work.

anyone tried deleting it to see if sro still runs without it?

yeah i wouldnt try it.. i bet it give u some error.. but i dont think it would matter if u delete it because the hackshield is fake...

Guildie deleted it and it's running fine at his pc so :/

I use CE for many different games, as well as some flash games. And yea, I have used CE in silkroad before. You know what it does? jack nothin'! The game is pretty much 100% server side so anything you do on your end doesn't affect the game other than making animations look slower or faster briefly which is pretty handy for vids. It gives no advantage to anyone using it for this game.

Anyway back on topic, to XMoshe, most games that have this kinda thing running have it auto redownload if you delete the folder. I deleted the folder on mine just now and it didn't redownload it....and the games running fine. I guess its just all for show then for now.

Jilbab, **** you.

Use of Cheat Engine/ Memory address edit programs does not = botting, you dumb ****.

I'm sorry but the ignorance of some people on this board, and the fact a majority of you bot- yet jump on each other, is astounding. Just give it a rest.

Jilbab. Forum nerds +1.

Well i already don't like this hackshield =.= wth on a clean sro client nothing modified it gives me a ffing BSD -.- threw out hackshield works fine tried reainstalling it first thoug but still gave me a BSD after that i threw out the hackshield file and bamn no problems oO

Not quite right... It means it took 15 seconds to update, not that it closes the whole hackshield after 15 secs...

YAY lets ban an another vet who sticked with SRF for over 4 years on request of a kid with 150 posts!



ON TOPIC: It seems to be good enough to keep botters out for the time being. Amazing how many stalls spawned in Jangan all of a sudden.

it crashes process explorer too lol, since when is that a hack tool?

Either way i'm impressed. The servers have been populated all day long and that's something that usually happens only when JM releases a brand new Legend.
