Vailence 30 Posted August 12, 2008 So on US.hack, you can play with any version, 1.07, 1.12, 1.14, 1.15.1, 1.15.2 etc etc, but do both players have to use the same version in order to play a match with each other? Also, do we have a back-patch thread? we should get one, if we dont I think im gonna search around and make one(For later research..) Also, we dont have Warden on US.hack, does warden "Only" stop you from "Entering" B.net? Or does it activly prevent you from useing hacks, and is warden the main reason that hacks become obsolete, or are the patches themselves the prevention mechanisim? Or is it a mix of both. If warden IS the reason why you cant use certain hacks, and not the patch, does that mean that certain hacks that only worked on previous versions because of warden's update to go along with the patches is the only thing preventing you from useing hacks from a previous patch on more current versions? As in, can I use an outdated hack from 1.12 like the stack hack, and then use it with 1.15.2? Share this post Link to post
XGhozt 410 Posted August 12, 2008 Both players need to use the same path, otherwise the game will get desyc'ed and both players will get disconnected from the game. Asside from game versions, this also includes game mods as well (both plays can use a mod). We don't have a thread dedicated to patches and threads. However we do have most (if not all) of the patches in the downloads. And we've also got (i think) a few programs which allow you to downgrade your patch. If now, however, then the best way is to duplicate your starcraft folder, and reinstall sc, the apply the patch. We do not have a warden on U.S. Hack, that was something implimented on the blizzard servers to monitor live games and apparently the login process. But a patch in any sence is what really makes the difference. But some hacks still work, most of the time the ones that do only modify client data and don't effect other players. So the reason 1.12 hacks don't work on 1.15.2 is because the data has changed in the patch and that exploit is no longer allowed. Share this post Link to post
