How accurate is the built in anti-hack ?

My Epoch anti-hack keeps flagging teleports and other things, the question is how accurate are these ?

The players involve swear they're not doing anything and they've been regular members, also how does someone that gets banned get back online ?

 

Look at this :

NOOBiTO138 is listed as teleporting 4 times and being banned automatically, yet look in the player list and there he is, back in game and not banned :unsure:

At the time of the logs i had around 55 players online, my servers FPS were around 15-20 so could it be a false positive or what ? I remember a certain AH whos name we can no longer mention used to flag teleports when the player moved too quickly either in a vehicle or lag caused by his/her position not updating.

 

So either these guys are cheats or the anti-hack isn't effective, what is the official answer ?

I've seen ppl flying helis and getting that pop up due to lag, as i have been speccing them.

 

The unlimited ammo one looks a bit dicey though, I havent had that issue, What is a benefit is the tool has notified you and it may be worth then spending time spectating him and checking his contents to catch him out. (is it not a test function and may show false positives)

 

The AH not loading i have seen a few times and again spectated and had nothing that showed me they were cheating. So possibly a false positive.

 

Unfortunatley if you want to catch the intellegent hackers, you have to spend hours spectating, I'm sure you already know this.

I had this the other day with 8 people on my server, 

 

One was a teleport the other was createvehicle ban. I know the guys are innocent as one wouldn't mess me about like that and the other is a little bit "special" xD 

 

is this just random bugs with the antihack?

Lag spikes would explain the teleporting, so would teleporting into someones base though :unsure:

What about the guy with the unlimited ammo test ? he wasn't banned and the other guy trying to access the admin menu ?

Skaro is ineffective. Infistar is way better and is updated daily.

Watch them when flagged, and let the human eye decide.

 

Paul is right though; the real AH is developed by ppl not involved in Epoch developing and are better at it.. It doesn't make the Epoch one bad, but there are better ones.

Problem is that Infi is not doing it because of love of Arma but to get rich (ie selling hacks AND antihacks).. because of that shady nature, he's not welcome here, nor mentioning his stuff (which I totally understand).

I bought Infistar, but as an official host i'm banned from using it, if the built in one is ineffective then i won't have much choice, I just want to know if i should be worried by the logs, It would be nice if Skaronator or any Devs would reply here.

I did PM Awol but he decided to ignore me, hence this post.

Am I reading that correctly?  Teleports under 50 meters?

 

Seems kind of strange.  I'm not sure anyone would bother TP'ing that short a distance when it's a 30 second run away.

 

Find a base, place a waypoint down, check it's inside the target base and TP

I would suggest that particular ban was caused by lag, that's the reason for the count before a ban. I believe, may be wrong, that the autoban was removed for now because of particular false positives. Will send Skaro the link to this thread, he has a much better idea than me :)
