Need some professional help ...

Greetings to every one ,

i got this problem in one of the servers i play in , it's version 5839 [Private server], the problem is there is a player who can somehow generate CPs with out any permission from the server like being GM/PM etc.., we tried so hard to find out how he does it and we couldn't but what i am sure of it's not client sided bug , so any ideas about what could he do for that and how he is doing it?or if its possible to actually hack CPs?

can't it must be a serverside bug
to fix u had to now it first.

Eh it could be a bit of both. If there are no server side checks in place, then a player can then send packets to the server and without any checks in place, then they could easily claim items etc.

For example, an NPC gives CP rewards, but if there is no server side check in place, a player can keep opening that dialog to claim those rewards repeatedly.

How exactly is that a "bit of both"? :confused:

so it is still server side bug.

but most Npcs have checks so u can take the prize

that would be kinda true if there was any NPC gives CP rewards, but they server has no such NPC :(

Remember me the good old money/CPs hack in LOTF sources :p

Not everyone places checks on NPCs, So yeah maybe trace that player and find out how he does it? Like put CPs watch or something that would alert you in the console if someone has alot of CPs or gaining CPs pretty quick, Shouldn't be hard to do and it might help (From my own experiences it worked).

mostly public sources have no event claiming prize check, be sure to review all ur npc where the players claim their prizes in an event.

Could also be sending the packet with a chat command and the server isn't checking his permissions.
Could be the dragonball exchange NPC...

Could be alot

try to check in the packethandler.cs maybe there's a command their that an Ordinary Player can make/type a command @cps <value>..

have you checked to ctf award npc? i noticed that they can claim the cp's over and over. had to fix that one lol.
