About server side and client side
-
… read the posts above mine first, see what I am talking about? …
Did you?
… tbh not a clue what you’re dribbling on about here…
Obviously
- but that doesn’t keep you away from crying ‘CENSORSHIP’ - a bit out of place imho so you might remember,
that i did try 2 answer some questions without judging etc. blabla…… - and from one more LONG reply ;D
far out of sight of the point of the statement it claims 2 refer 2.
Summarized "I don’t understand or care what you r talking about - but this is censorship.'.
Even so the topic might have gone a bit off topic after the initial question,
there can be only one sens in separating client + server files:
to protect a mod and keep others away from running a server without asking the modder.Besides that separating the client and server is one step of the package,
which besides this protection can give a little anti-cheat protection and the chance 2 disable Datastorm + Co.
That’s all done the same way and nothing, what can be in any way relevant for usual modding
(cause in fact it’s about adding bugs).So again 4 you Chips:
THIS can only be relevant for people trying 2 protect a server or a mod- or for people trying 2 bypass the protection.
And so it will be impossible, 2 reconstruct missing files,
that’s only one 1st and the simple part, which doesn’t need 2 be private.
BUT so topics have the tendency 2 evolve - and even go off topic -
the obvious intention behind the question indicates “this should be private”
as others stated in posts above Chips and my initial post.
@Chips:so i’ll just hand you a hanky and let you whip your own chin
- but that doesn’t keep you away from crying ‘CENSORSHIP’ - a bit out of place imho so you might remember,

Wait, so you’re saying the original topic is fine, but you are worried about what the replies might hold?
You know we have moderation, eh? We can remove posts that cross the limit.
But since I have a hard time understanding what’s so private about the list of client/server-side files, I’m not sure I get what you’re saying.

There is a way to ensure that FL datastorm and FL Explorer will crash or not show systems when trying to read your mod … ;D
That at least prevents less determined cheaters from checking out your mod system files. If you compress the files it helps a little too.
Ultimately if someone is determined enough, there is not much you can do.

Hmm, i would have like to have known this for the mod i’m working on. So then does this mean that the modders that don’t
know this have to guess and hope they don,t miss anything?. Maybe someone could send the info in a pm? would that not make it more secure? Thats assuming i,m not being suspected as a cheater for asking that is.
But it would be nice to be able to secure all he hard work i have been pouring into this thing. -
Just thought I’d weight in my opinion. I am ultimately for the complete free distribution of all modding knowledge - some of the exclusivity when it comes to sharing works is a bit insulting, as the decision as to who’s trustworthy and who’s not is totally arbitrary. (no offense to anyone here)
I realize the intent, and it is a good one, but as it was stated, the determined cheaters - the ones you should be worrying about - will find a way through these holes.
Instead of hiding possibly exploitable modding information, there should be measures taken to ensure it never becomes a problem in the first place - most of these exist in the form of server-side anti-cheat etc., especially with recent FLHook innovations.
Again, I mean no offense with these statements, and I hope there is none taken.

Call me petetic but i think this should be discussed in the privat area.

Have you asked for access here? http://the-starport.net/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=26&topic=33.0
If not, then go ahead and we’ll work on that. If you did, then we must have missed you, sorry.
Just tell me and I’ll go ahead and take a look at the situation.
