BattlEye Automatic (Script) Exception Generator

[eraser1 329]

The new Exile update is on the horizon, and despite all of the amazing features it's gonna bring, it's also gonna bring headaches for server owners who have to update their server(s) and the dozens of customizations that they made.

One of the daunting tasks is updating BattlEye filters. Granted, Exile does come with filters by default that would work fine, if it weren't for the fact that most servers run custom scripts/addons that trigger the BE filters, so almost every time you add something you end up with a BattlEye kick (only one if you're lucky).

I've gone through the experience many times, and let's face it: it's tedious. When you get a script restriction, you have to copy the code, replace all of the newlines with "\n"s, find the right line, and update your "scripts.txt". There are certain online tools that will automatically replace newlines for you, but wouldn't it be nice if the script exception was generated and added completely automatically as soon as it happens?

 

Well, I think so, so I mish-mashed some code together and created the "BattlEye Automatic Exception Generator". It will automatically scan your scripts.log for script restrictions, replace newlines in the code (if they exist), and add the exception to your "scripts.txt" on the correct line. It will also prevent duplicate exceptions from being added (to the same line).

 

***!!!READ THE README BEFORE ASKING ANY QUESTIONS!!!*** Seriously guys (and gals). If I see any question in here that is answered by the readme, I will simply ignore it, and it may even be deleted.

 

If you have any questions/comments/concerns/suggestions, please leave them below. I made this for "fun" in my free time, and it is not perfect by any means, so any help/suggestions are appreciated.

PS: I know people have made stuff like this before, but none of the tools were publicly available, and least of all, open source.

Hey

 

I've been looking for something like this (or at least i think i have XD).

 

Will give it a try!

Nice work but it only works on the scripts.txt? Any way to get it to work on the other filters that might need to be added like in the attachto and createvehicle files?

I have never really used battleye (normally just delete the txt files) so apologies if this is a stupid question...

 

Whats stopping this from detecting a hackers actions and then making them ok?

You don't use this on your live server, you use it on test, and if you're hacking your own test server then something's wrong with you lol

• This tool will ONLY write exceptions for SCRIPT FILTERS. I decided AGAINST adding support for other restrictions because those should, in my opinion, be handled manually because you need to know what's happening. Perhaps, if there's enough demand, I will add the ability to generate exceptions for other restrictions (and it will have to be enabled manually).

You can easily modify it to write exceptions for other restrictions. The most important part is the RegEx matching/searching (and handling the results). I didn't try, but the RegEx for script restrictions should work on other restriction types, but I would personally use a different RegEx statement since you can make it more specific for other restriction types.

I put everything on a github so the tool can be updated more easily, and so that the ReadMe can be presented a bit better.

The tool has been updated: read the changelog

I'm getting a crash from time to time:

************** JIT-Debuggen **************
Um das JIT-Debuggen (Just-In-Time) zu aktivieren, muss in der
Konfigurationsdatei der Anwendung oder des Computers
(machine.config) der jitDebugging-Wert im Abschnitt system.windows.forms festgelegt werden.
Die Anwendung muss mit aktiviertem Debuggen kompiliert werden.

Zum Beispiel:

<configuration>
    <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

Wenn das JIT-Debuggen aktiviert ist, werden alle Ausnahmefehler an den JIT-Debugger gesendet, der auf dem
Computer registriert ist, und nicht in diesem Dialogfeld behandelt.

 

Nice tool btw, spares me much time instead of adding a bunch of filters on my own.
