Hacking, cheating, Config filing and genreal unethical online gaming practices

Van dag 1 af het ek gese BO is hondkak nie fisies oor die gameplay, maar oor die LAG issues wat steeds nie opgelos is.

Toe hoor ek van nice cfg.'s wat in die rondte doen wat LAG minder maak en try 1 wat ek by n mede PEW gekry het. WOW!!! Wat n verskil. Die config file het my nie n beter speler gemaak nie lol, maar ten minste loop en ruk ek nie soos n kat met selotape aan sy voet (nee ek mishandel nie diere maar was eendag lank lank gelede n kind)
 
I've just come from a blobs server where someone was hacking, went to theater mode and confirmed my suspicions. If only there was a feature to upload the video to the VAC team as proof instead of just reporting them.

I can always FRAPS it and put it on youtube, but those videos are a dime a dozen nowadays.

Never learned any programming lang from a book so can't help there. Any good C++ book will presumably do. The gaming stuff is 100% online anyway (and in C++ as I said)...tutorials, code snippets etc .

You'll have to decide whether to go the OpenGL or DirectX route. OpenGL is imo easier, but DirectX has more commercial potential. From a raw power/ability perspective the two are pretty much equal....but actual use of that power is more prevalent on the DX side.

For OpenGL I'd recommend the NEHE tutorials. Not sure what the equivalent to the NEHE tutorials is with DX.

Whatever you do, make sure you can always complete the projects you attempt. That means start small & unambitious projects. The reason for this is that essentially every component of a game is easy in isolation...once you start combining them the shlt hits the fan in 20 ways you can think of and 100 you can't (yet).

Good luck

Thanks for the info, let's see if I can achieve something. :P

Accelerated C++, followed by C++ Primer & Effective C++, those should get you going in the right direction. Obviously programming is a constant learning process so keep reading, researching and improving.

Is it just me or are there many more players seemingly hacking in BC2 these days? I might be wrong, but damn, some okes just seem extremely suspect. And I'm not talking about the obvious morons who score the 80/2 scores. PB just seems to totally fail.

I must admit, I was playing with Den last night and there were some CRAZY dodgy shizzle going on. I normally never think anything out of place until I start getting shlutted through walls and dense forests of trees. Note, this is in hardcore mode. Plus we're flying with the chopper and all of a sudden this oke just shoots the kak out of us with a tank. Usually I don't find this strange, but in this instance it was utter BS. Last night was extremely dodgy- the worst I've ever seen it in my whole one year and 2 months of playing BC2 online.
 
Being in a Heli and being nailed time and time again is out right annoying, sometimes i dont know HOW they do it, not saying any1 is hacking nor do i want to name as thats just low....

but i have had a few people get annoyed with a "married couple" as i presume cause they have the same names, only one with a mrs and the other without

i got nailed about 5 times with their tank whilst i was in the heli, i didnt think much of it but a new person might have considered this as hacking....you know the old saying, "no way BS, its BEEEEESSSSSSS" :D
