Old cheats don't, and every update breaks new ones too (or at least it should)

OMG really?¡¡¡ dude it should be announced with drums and plates (don't understand why it was not)... it's by far the best feature 4.2 has to offer right now. cheater free game..., omg so good.

Sorry but i don't understand, what you saying is cheats do not work in 4.2?

Yup updates breaks old cheats as hooks move during a recompile so the cheat has to find the hooks and recompile a new cheat for each version change.

Hummmmmm.

I guess that even a small client update should be enough to break cheats hooks... Or a new server update is also necessary?

Problem is, some little prick will now work on finding a way to automate the process...
Until then, BRAVO to 4.2.003, I like it now.

Client and server would be the one two punch and both of them are small enough and not that big of a deal to compile a new build once things get messy again.

In the good old Quake 3 day when id released a patch players and server operators jumped on it right away as everyone then knew that they will get at least a week of cheat free game play. It's more of a case of update and update often and player getting into the habit of checking.

In the mean time if someone spots a cheat report it but if history holds up the cheat makers usually wait for the current version to become stable.
