Script restriction 11

15 posts in this topic

I've had a lot of players being kicked for this:
 

#11 "Dir direction (vehicle player);



BIS_DEBUG_CAM_MARKER = createmarkerlocal ["BIS_DEBUG_CAM_MARKER",_ppos];
BIS_DEBUG_CAM_MARKER"

Before I add an exception for it, I'd like to know why this is happening to be sure I'm not adding an exception for a cheat. Does anyone know why this kick happens?

This is from the camera.sqf script that BIS made.

Is that something that should be triggered on my server? I don't know what that is.

No, probably not. I think it's the original free-roam camera BIS made before they had a function for it. 

@infiSTAR Any thoughts?

Thanks but I know how to add exceptions. I have been running Arma 2/3 servers for many years.

Do you have any input on the topic regarding the camera that is being discussed?

ah well I thought you ask why somebody is being kicked for createCamera when you have 7 "createcamera" :P

If player X joins a server with a different mod e.g. a zeus game or maybe even some life mod server or he just plays in singleplayer and that mod/singleplayer loads up the bis camera, it stores values in the uinamespace - that namespace doesn't get cleared when he leaves or joins a different server. Only on game-restart.

 

So if somebody has that variable set - he must have been using the camera.

 

I found this ->

https://github.com/miragecentury/BTCCO44.altis/blob/master/camera.sqf

starting with:
if (!isNil "BIS_DEBUG_CAM") exitwith {};

so in theory, you could just set BIS_DEBUG_CAM = compileFinal "nope"; in your mpmission init. 

but who knows, maybe some new hack menu using it? I've not heard or seen of any tho

 

*edit*
don't set  BIS_DEBUG_CAM  if you run infiSTAR, I am checking if that variable is set (if camera is used) and ban for it if you are not an admin :)

Ok, so just to be clear, if someone is trying to use this, they are probably trying to cheat? I found a reference to "BIS_DEBUG_CAM" on a cheat website (Google search) in a script used for free cam/ESP. Is there a demonstration of what this looks like? Is it possible for a player to have this accidentally? I just want to be sure i fully understand so maybe I can warn my players not to do this or else they will be banned.

If somebody is really using the camera on your exile server - he will be banned for several things.

I think those variables are just "leftovers" from different mods. Not sure which ones

So the use of the camera is intentional. It's not something that accidentally happens? I guess a of of people are trying to use it because I see a lot of kicks for it.
